This is a uranium disposal cell in Green River, Utah. It's one of several dozen sites around the United States that are the burial grounds for nuclear waste. BLDBLOG posts about this form of "Perpetual Architecture" and links to a new exhibit at Los Angeles's fantastic Center for Land Use Interpretation. "They are time capsules, of sorts, designed to take their toxic contents, undisturbed, as far into the future as possible."
