Nike Missile Base Site S-13/14 - Redmond, WA

This is one of the larger buildings at the abandoned Nike Missile Base S-13/14 in Redmond, WA. The exterior of the buildings are still pretty intact (aside from graffiti and broken windows), but the insides are showing their age. Looks a little like Condemned: Criminal Origins to me, don't you think?

any secret rooms or basement?

[zephcrow]

I wish! Well, there was a boarded up basement room with a suspicious quarter-sized hole in the thick concrete wall that you could peer into. There is also a small, separate building I couldn't reach because of the brambles in the way.

great video it is good to see other people like to explore these cold war sites

[zephcrow]

Thank you! I'm very curious about these sites and I love to explore places like these to try and figure out new things about them. I wish I had made a longer video, but I was running out of space on my camera for pictures. :(

@zephcrow : Sorry for the mis-under standing, zephcrow. If you take another look at my post, it was made in response to CambioJoe, who referred to the magazines as silos.

@jlprtr I don't believe I ever called them a silo? The magazines are at a different location on the base. In fact, in an earlier comment I responded "The magazines themselves are not welded shut, but they are completely flooded."

@CambioJoe No offence meant, but as an old Nike Hercules crewman on Vashon from Sept, '62 until we turned it over to the ARNG, I just have to say that no Nike Hercules (or for that matter the Ajax) was ever in a silo. They were magazines, also casually called "Pits".

Raab Park in Poulsbo WA was once a NIKE missile launch site but it is now a park :P. Nothing left unfortunately. My grandfather worked on Trident missiles and NIKE's

@tailspinzz I lived and worked on this site in Redmond from1955 until 1958. While the site was being built we lived at the national guard base out near Kirkland. I spent 20 years in the Army, the 3 I spent at this site was the best of the 20.

I remember these NIKE bases when they were operational. NIKE hill in Redmond and another one. I grew up near Marymoor park in the 60's.
