The Exhibit Hall The 16,544 square foot exhibit hall was designed to be the work space for Congressional support staff members to conduct the business of government.  It has been used by thousands of guests and Greenbrier employees for numerous and various functions throughout the years without  their knowledge that they actually were inside the bunker.  An 18-ton blast door is concealed at the interior entrance to the exhibit hall, while a 30-ton blast door is located at the East Tunnel entrance to the exhibit hall. A laundry facility was located off the exhibit hall as was the television repair shop which served as part of the cover for the secret operation. There is also a balcony area which housed offices and work areas for the House and Senate leadership. The Mountaineer Room This 133 seat auditorium was to be the meeting room for the Senate.  There are 43 phone and microphone outlets for use by the Senators.  Like the exhibit hall, this room has been used throughout the years by thousands of guests. The Governor's Hall This 440 seat auditorium was to be the meeting room for the House of Representatives.  There are 140 phone and microphone outlets for use by the Senators.  Like the exhibit hall and the Mountaineer Room, this room has been used throughout the years by thousands of guests.  One wonders why no one ever questioned the unusually large number of columns in these three rooms. Elevator Lobby The panel to the right of the screen and below the dark line hides the blast door for this entrance to the exhibit Hall.  This area is one of the Greenbrier's elevator lobbies. Food Supply Part of the original food supply that was left at the time the facility was decommissioned. West Entrance Tunnel Another view of the blast door and the West Entrance Tunnel. The West Virginia Wing of the Greenbrier Resort The bunker is directly below this building.  This wing was constructed at the same time as the bunker as a cover for the building of the bunker.
