Garden City lands are owned by the natives. There used to be a fisheries communications farm there with a dozen antennas sticking up into the air, but that was taken out in the early 2000s.
As for the DND Lands. The green building on the corner of No.4 and Alderbridge is an armoury, housing mainly the 12 Service Battalion, a corp of Military Police, a corp of Army Cadets and a Squadron of Air Cadets (655!). The land behind the armoury is mainly used as a training site and government land in case they ever need to expand. AFAIK there's no silo base there, and the 12 svc's primary function are fixing trucks and engineering work.
