LI-01 Ceresco/Davey Nike Missile Site
Intergrated Fire Control Center



This site, like Crete, was under construction during 1959 and came online in 1960. Unlike most city-defense Nike-Hercules missile installations, all missiles sat above ground rather than on elevators.

The Davey site actually is said to occupy the tallest point in Lancaster County, this is due for the need for search radars to have as little ground clutter as possible for a clear view.

Closed in June 1966, the Integrated Fire Control site was later transferred to the Raymond Central School district and remains as a junior/senior high school today with some buildings remaining in original condition. The launcher meanwhile is privately utilized by a mechanic from Lincoln.
