Cold War-era fallout shelters?

Question Corner finds one on Bedford

by Tim Athan

posted 6/18/2011

Q. Are there any remaining Cold War-era fallout shelters in Ann Arbor?

A. The Observer learned of just one surviving private fallout (aka bomb) shelter, in the tranquil Ann Arbor Hills neighborhood. The current home owner on Bedford Road says the only outward evidence is a slightly sunken lawn where two feet of soil cover a nineteen-by-twenty-seven-foot bomb shelter.
