You can visit the decommissioned bank vault of the former flagship headquarters branch of #BankOfAmerica in #SanFrancisco's Financial District.
Photograph of the long, dimly-lit, and starkly cold-seeming interior of a decommissioned bank vault. The floor is bare concrete, while new HVAC and track lighting hang from the ceiling. The room’s walls are lined with hundreds of steel safe deposit boxes that vary in size from that of a desk drawer to large cabinets. Many of the boxes’ doors hang open or are missing altogether. A scattering of tool boxes and electrical cords lie on the floor.
Photograph of the open doorway of a decommissioned bank vault. Set in thick raw concrete, a massive steel door is swung open to the left; while dials and buttons are attached to a steel plate on the door’s right. A fabric tape stretches across the doorway between two stanchions. The vault’s dimly-lit interior is visible through the open doorway.
Photograph of a sign mounted to a post. Bare concrete walls are visible in the background. The white sign is framed in black and and, in black text, reads:

"BANK VAULT
CLOSED

But feel free to peek inside!

This historic building was constructed in 1971 as Bank of America’s flagship location. The lower levels were used for vaults, safety deposit boxes, and office space. Prior to the ICA SF activating the building, it has been vacant for a decade-with the original vault preserved.”

Below this text are two photographs that show historical views of the interior and exterior of the bank building. A stylized square logo that reads “ICA+SF AT THE CUBE” is in the lower left corner of the placard.
Photograph of a heavy, vertical steel plate set in a raw concrete wall. On it is mounted a row of several square buttons labeled “TIMELOCK,” “POWER,” “OPEN,” and “CLOSE.” Below them are two unlabeled small round dials, and one unlabeled, very large dial. Near the top of the image, a sticker that reads “WARNING: CARE MUST BE TAKEN OF VAULT LOCKS TO AVOID ALL DANGER OF LOCKOUTS” is applied to the plate. The sticker also has several lines of small, bulleted text printed below the warning headline. Through a narrow portion of an open doorway to the plate’s left, the dimly-lit interior of a decommissioned bank vault can be seen in the background.


A shadowy and controversial secret club meets in the California woods every year — and at least 5 US presidents were members

"George H.W. #Bush joined the club in 1973, while chairing the Republican National Committee during the Watergate scandal.

"Domhoff writes that Bush belonged to a camp called Hill Billies, along with top executives from #BankOfAmerica, #GeneralMotors, and #ProcterAndGamble.

"Bush also brought along a future president as a guest on one trip to Bohemian Grove. He introduced his son — George W. Bush — at a lakeside talk in 1995, saying that he'd make a great president, according to Domhoff."

US-Banken auf Rekordjagd

Die US-Großbanken konnten zuletzt zum Teil Rekordergebnisse einfahren. Das lag an florierenden Geschäfte an den Finanzmärkten und an einem wiederbelebten Geschäft mit Übernahmen und Fusionen.
