Site Information: BU-34/35 Orchard Park

Nike site BU-34/35 was located northeast of the town of Orchard Park, southeast of Buffalo. Today, the IFC area is an abandoned field, with no remnants of its former occupants except for the access road. After being used by the military, medical research was conducted at the site before all of the buildings were demolished. The former launch site and barracks is now privately owned land.
