 Overview
 Description
The place is mostly crap after years of people going through destroying what's left of it and the weekend paintball battles that occur there. The building is built like a barracks, a long hallway going from one end of the building to the other with rooms connected to it. There is also a very large amount of graffiti here, both professional and amateur.

     History
    It was constructed by the Army in early 1965 in response to the Cuban Missile Crisis and was the Integrated Fire Control(IFC) Facility for the Nike Missile site titled HM-95 D/2/52. No, it was not an Insane Asylum. These Nike sites were split into two locations. One was the radar communications and control facility(IFC), where they did targeting and fire control, and the other was the Launcher area(L), with the actual missile silos. The Launcher area was located where what is now the Krome INS Facility. All the Nike Missile sites in South Florida were shut down and decommissioned in June 1979 and the site was most likely abandoned and partially dismantled at that point. In 1980 the site was revived and apparently was used in some capacity during the Mariel Boatlift to house immigrants, but eventually became unused again after the focus shifted to the INS Krome facility. A majority of the building is in a barracks style, with many small rooms off a main hallyway, with several large rooms on the northwest side of the structures. The open fields to the north and west of the building originally held large radio towers for scanning for incoming planes/missiles.
