Latvia to auction town

From HuffPo, news that the Baltic nation of Latvia will auction off a Soviet ghost town abandoned after the Russian military departed.
The town, Skrunda-1 (map), centered around a now-abandoned radar base that was part of the Soviet early warning system.
Auction starts today, starting bid $300,000.
If one is not mistaken, this is a Flickr set of images from this place.
