Brief Overview: 

The building is a telephone exchange built to house telephone switching equipment and has an average floor height is 5.5 m. The floors are also much stronger than usual, designed to carry 200-to-300-pound-force-per-square-foot. It is often described as one of the most secure buildings in America, and was designed to be self-sufficient with its own gas and water supplies along with generation capabilities and protection from Nuclear Fallout for up to two weeks.

ALL EU ORDERS processed through our Etsy Store HERE

Our concrete sculptures are individually hand cast in solid concrete. This means that each piece will have distinctive markings and minor blemishes due to air bubbles in the concrete. This is a natural part of the material and will mean that no two pieces are ever exactly the same.
