Just a few items you'll need for your zombie apocalypse defense shelter.

Construction workers in the Loop broke down a wall and discovered a fallout shelter from 1962. The relic adjacent to Lower Wacker Drive contained barrels of water, medicine and all the necessities to survive nuclear warfare. ABC7 writes:

"Well, inside here is a complete kit for making a portable bathroom. Complete instructions on how to use it," Cliff Olszewski, assistant director of Wacker Drive Reconstruction Project, said. "Toilet paper, tissue."
