IRRC, Ragland was built in '58 (but could be wrong, may infact be 59),
and the basement (aka Data Center) as a Civil Air Defense room. Now it's
a data center and they have kept it up quite nice.
Jim, you're right that it is slated for demolition, but not until the
"new" data center is built/migrated.
Oh, and they still only have 10Mb to most of the offices in Ragland.

I believe Ragland was built in '59, but probably wasn't a datacenter
until many years later. I believe it still is now, but I also believe
it is slated for demolition sometime soon. The oldest buildings that
were actually data centers in the olden days probably are something at
IBM and the First Flight Center (formerly TUCC).
