means the main parts of town would've been built first
But lots of towns change which bit is the "main part" over a few decades.
They probably sold it to developers for extra money because of its security features.

Maybe it was a matter of where there was room under the ground, rather than what was on top? After all, world go boom, not care so much about Main Street.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hadn't everyone forgotten the Doomsday weapon? Wasn't that the problem?

And even if they weren't, why would they then stupidly build Main Street right over the doomsday weapon in its silo.
but, didn't they forget all about it?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Maybe they tunneled it into place.
What am I doing? There's no explanation, it just is. While on the subject, though, why does that town have one scientific problem-solver? There's one engineer?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
but, didn't they forget all about it?
Wouldn't they have seen the top of the silo when they paved it over? There had to be some sort of silo structure to let it raise and lower like it did. Also, it's the current residents who had forgotten. That street's been there a while.
eta: And bon bon's right.

So GD was on top of the whole thing and still gave it to Fargo as an office?

There were no records of the project except the paper in Fargo's office which had clearly been down there since the project. Having worked for the government, if there's no record, it doesn't exist. the jail once lost a prisoner because he had been ill, so he couldn't be released on his official release date. They track prisoners by their release date, so they had no idea where he was. I had to have them do a cell check to find the guy.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
I do imagine Eureka being the kind of place where you could get away with secretly building a death ray underneath the town square. It just seems to fit.

Right. I mean, all you need to do is to use the town-memory-erasing ray after.
