Sega has released a new promotional video today showing the interior of Hadley’s Hope as seen in Aliens: Colonial Marines. As you can see in the video, the halls are still pretty much intact after the explosion of the atmospheric processor.

In the "real" world - no it wasn't.

I believe gearbox is saying that the explosion originated from derp underground so the blast was mostly channeled upward, not outward. Mostly.
I'm sure when the company built the colony there was some thought to the highly nuclear facility close by. I wonder if the colony was designed to resist the blast to a degree.
It's still intact for the same reason the rest of the colony is intact. Nuke proof.
