I spy: A fallout shelter?
On the right side of the Ada Post Office entrance at 131 S. Main St., is a reminder of the Cold War: an (originally black and yellow) fallout shelter sign. It has historic rather than practical significance. The Icon was told that the shelter room is now used for storage.
Reuters news service reported in 2017 that “FEMA does not have a position regarding the signs and does not maintain lists of the old shelter locations.”
