    This is one of many concrete bunkers built to store explosives manufactured by the Volunteer Army Ammunition Plant during WWII. The property was used again for similar purposes during the Korean and Vietnam Wars, but is decommissioned and used for civilian recreation now. Some of the bunkers, known as Corbetta magazines, are open to the public.
