Close, the actual address was Bethesda, MD., off of I-270. Gone now, torn down around 1990. The building was a steel structure and the sheets of steel were allowed to rust, thus the name. There was an incedent there in '82, a security guard and another worker were shot and killed by a disgrunteled employee. I think the Gaithersburg facility (different location) was sold to Lockheed Martin.
