Armor Plate Vault

Posted by Bill NYC` on December 29, 2007 at 12:55:55:


Hi Guys:

Have a question that may seem strange but a friend of mine is in commercial
real estate in NYC. One of his managed properties is 115 Broadway and he told
me there is an old vault that used to belong to the National Copper Bank in
1907 in the subbasement that is made of battleship style armor plate 14" thick.
Is that possible? 14" sounds very extreme. Would that qualify for one of the
strongest vaults in the world? He also mentioned he was in a bank on wall street
recently that has a vault door over 4' thick in the basement. Is that possible as
well?? Thanks for any info and sorry to bug you guys with questions from a total
amateur but I find this interesting. Happy New year!
