When the Voice of America transmitter building was erected, Ohio was facing a cold winter. Everything was freezing including the bricks and the cement but the need to move ahead was overwhelming so they built the thing anyway.

The Voice of America Bethany Relay Station is located about 25 miles north of Cincinnati, Ohio. It went into service in 1944 and transmitted news of World War II on shortwave radio frequencies using 200,000-watt transmitters built by the Crosley Corporation.
