Every few months there is a similar such story about this ancient marvel of technology and the people remotely maintaining it against all odds.

Eighty-six is slang meaning "to throw out," "to get rid of," or "to refuse service to." It comes from 1930s soda-counter slang meaning that an item was sold out. There is varying anecdotal evidence about why the term eighty-six was used, but the most common theory is that it is rhyming slang for nix.
And then all the waiters start singing and you just want to bury yourself under a large rock.

Would you dare to request a tour?
To be fair they do tell later in the description that an investor can just use the lot to park their mobile home.

Built in 2023, looks like DIY

Lot of space, good price, nothing more. Says it was built in 2023, might not be finished. Would be better if it was just an empty lot.
