we did that in nicer areas for bigger sewer lift stations
they looked like a normal 3-2 home

Or it's CIA.

The fact that one guys spent evenings and weekends for years building it makes me think it's not telco or CIA. But who knows. Maybe it's Time Warner's customer service center, there's never anyone there.

Years ago dad put some flooring in for a guy and he wanted dad to hook up his gas stove. Dad wouldn't so the guy turned the gas on anyway. He survived, probably because the trailer walls are so weak.

Google address and see what pops up? And, google map it and see what that shows too?

Google sees and knows all
