I tried to check inside, not locked, or it seemed not locked. Door jammed as building is shifting and walls settling. So inside view is out of the question.

I was also told this was an Edison Transformer Substation, when a local power company and the Edison Company had to get Congressman Cannon involved to settle the dispute.
