SF-37C Nike Missile site

SF-37C Nike Missile site


Newark, California (CA), US
Site is mostly intact in terms of buildings, 1.6 miles to Launch site.

3 pads, and two strange concrete tunnel shelter-type structures approx 40' long/8' wide running to underneath two of the RADAR pads. Nice 'IFC AREA CALIFORNIA NATIONAL GUARD' artwork on concrete berm. IFC is about 270' ASL, and has nice view of San Mateo Bridge across the SF Bay, and salt evaporation ponds. 100 yards W of IFC gate, down hill is large covered Alameda County Water District water reservoir, and a large, primitive shooting range, probably for PD or SO. About 20 yards down the hill more to the N of the IFC compound is a 50'x50' fenced-in compound that also seems to be some sort of water or sewage facility. ]
