National Museum of Natural History - Museum Support Center
In Suitland, Maryland is the Museum Support Center - a series of non-descript warehouses that hold the majority of the NHM collection that is not on display. Not open to the public, it is open to researchers who can study specimens from around the world.
A very fictionalized version of the MSC was a centerpiece of Dan Brown's "The Lost Symbol." http://www.mnh.si.edu/
