ITC (FIXED) - Interplanetary Trade Center

ITC (Interplanetary Trade Center)
The centerpiece of the more affluent North is the Interplanetary Trade Center,
a larger, stronger replica of the World Trade Center destroyed in 2001. Many
were always unhappy that those towers were never rebuilt so when Ted
Murdock proposed to make it happen in this city he got a lot of support.
Aside from space elevators and Refinery One these towers are the tallest
buildings on Earth. In some way they brought pre 2001 Manhattan back to life
while the real world Manhattan is, of course, mostly underwater.
The ITC is composed of two 180 story towers. Tower One and Tower Two, also
called Defiance One and Defiance Two. The lower portion of these buildings is
occupied by shopping centers and offices, higher up you will find hotels and
hi-tech laboratories while the highest floors are reserved for the super rich.
Penthouses and parks occupy the very top where, on very clear days, breathing
without protection is possible even with open windows.
Tower One is also a starscraper- it is fitted with a space elevator. Ted Murdock's
enormous penthouse is also located here. The park that comes with it is the
largest in the city. Both towers have a mini spaceport on their roofs and are
strong enough to withstand collision with the largest atmosphere faring vessels.
The support frame of the ITC is reinforced with smart graphene, the incredibly
strong, selfregenerating material modern starships are made of.
