This is a very cool piece of history. To see where weve come from and know that we are headed in a better direction. The park is really cool and relaxing. Fascinating to see the different structures that were previously used not that long ago.

Beautiful spot. Alas, they took the ladder away so theres no more access to the tower.

This is Hillcrest Park in Waukesha, WI. This is a former U.S. Army Nike Missile Control Site. The Nike missiles that this site controlled were located and set to launch from a large bunker 1 mile south of this facility. If you are interested in military history or have friends or family that are, this is a great place to take them. Officially this facility was called Nike Missile Control Site M-74.

Awesome historical site. Check it out gonna go to the launch site next. Located a mile south took me forever researching on the net to find it.

Mostly clean, and interesting with info pulled up on the internet. Not much else here, but its neat to know it exists.

Does not look like it gets very much love. Everything grown over, broken glass in the parking lot, and just overall run down.

Beautiful view and cool history

Very cool to climb and explore the area. DO NOT graffiti as there is kind older gentleman who works very hard to keep everything looking nice *edit top is free for all man repaints green sides of main tower

History comes alive! nothing much to see anymore, but cool to know it was there.

Interesting bit history left behind

Interesting site to view, but little historical information there. Learned more from Google.

This was a lot cooler than the Reebok missile site.

Cool place BUT you cannot go sledding.

Bizarre

Quiet place historic side

An interesting relic of 1956 through 1964. Only one marker that I saw.

AWESOME
