Not sure if true, but I was told when I was a kid that the Exxon administrative building in Baton Rouge was built to resemble a ship.
The reason being is that if ever attacked/bombed, the enemy may target the building instead of the refinery.
I believe it was built in the 1940s. Probably a bullshite story but it kind of makes sense.

Why they put that neighborhood right there around all those big buildings and runways? But looks like a nice place to grow up.

Similarly, there’s a fake airport and town outside Richmond (now closed off to the public)
Why is it closed off?

And, for the times, I hear they were great neighborhoods to grow up in as children, if you could stand the military life.
