     History
    The buildings were erected in 1982 for a computer hardware business that never materialized. Lonnie Mikkelsen, who worked on a construction crew that built the domes, told PinalCentral earlier this year that the domes were erected like an upside down swimming pool, with 3" of spray foam around a big balloon. They were then covered with a concrete.

    4.23.2021 - Despite raze orders, the domes are shockingly still standing. It is assumed the raze order is in appeals. The largest of them, comprised of 5 connected domes, is mostly collapsed.
