I am surprised nobody has mentioned that the CIA had it's main offices in the I.G. Farben building in the 50's and 60's. The main incineration and destruction facility for classified material was behind the building. It was a choice detail to be on the "Farben Run" from Camp King, Oberursel which used the incinerator at the I.G. Farben to destroy their classified material.
