Yesterday Blogtown brought you a 1957 cold war film set in Portland, based on the premise of a nuclear bomb hitting the city. The movie featured then mayor, Terry Schrunk, who happens to be related to current District Attorney Mike Schrunk, in a NUCLEAR BUNKER somewhere in Portland:But where, I wondered, was this mysterious BUNKER OF DOOM? Well, Schrunk junior (Mike) tells us it was Kelly Butte, which is between Powell and Division at 103rd and Clinton, just East of the 205. Portland’s former “civil defense center,” it later became Portland’s 911 call center until it closed in 1992. This is Kelly Butte today, with creepy “do not enter” wire fences:And here’s the earth-covered entrance, even more spooky:These pics are courtesy of local blogger, cyclotram, who has more on the Butte. Blogtown is talking with the City’s parks bureau to get inside, but in the mean time, anyone who a.can help us get in, b.fancies coming along when we go, c.wants to club together and buy Portland’s only half-functioning nuclear bunker (it’s allegedly capable of withstanding a 60 megaton blast)—let me know.
