It looks a little like the Stronghold in the southern Badlands, where the ghost dancers fled the US Army before the massacre at Wounded Knee.

Maybe it's not related, who knows.

Whenever I see it, I just think of putting a big machine gun on top and stopping the Red's amphibious assault coming up from Lake Union.
