The "box" at the summit of Mt. Umunhum. 80 feet tall AN/FPS-35 radar. Back in its day, it was said that it could withstand a nuclear bomb. Nowadays it is starting to deteriorate, and there are cracks in it from the Loma Prieta earthquake in 1989. It is covered in lead paint that is peeling off from its exposure. The surrounding buildings haven't been maintained since the 80's.
