“I never thought that really anybody would know anything about it.
“And I just thought: What in the world would they want to do with Pasquo, Tennessee?” Bell said. But Bell found the Cold War mention most interesting. The area is probably best known for biscuits - at the Loveless Cafe. She came across the brief mention after wondering about the unincorporated area of Davidson County called Pasquo, which she commutes past each day from Fairview. Longtime Nashville nurse Marie Bell asked. Exactly where? And why was it located there? Wikipedia says Pasquo was the site of the state of Tennessee’s abandoned Cold War Communications Center. And that was enough to spur a question to Curious Nashville: The facility has rarely appeared in news stories. It’s the defunct fallout shelter where Tennessee’s governors would have gone in the case of nuclear attack.
Once considered of the utmost importance to the state, but eventually ravaged by mold and vandals. Out in the ridges and thick woods of West Nashville rests an epic remnant of Cold War history.
