It's in Spring Valley -- 4825 Glenbrook Road. The Army Corps of Engineers recently finished the cleanup. The lot that literally stood on top of the chemical weapons pit aka the "pit of hades" just sold for over $1.5 million. Absolutely crazy. The redfin listing still shows it with the protective fencing from the remediation.

I trust the army corps to do a publicized cleanup more than I trust a lot of the amateur craftsmen of America to diy an electrical system through a flipped house. The news will care if you find a leftover jar of chemical weapons, only HGTV will care if you discover that there's a bunch of live uncoated wires from the early 20th century running all through your house
