Description[]
The Africa Tower is located on Albany Avenue opposite the Civilization Committee Complex. The modernist building bears its name along with and an image of the African continent on the architrave above the entrance. According to a plaque by the entrance, the building is used for "Third World Debt Collection". The building is inaccessible to the player and plays no role in the storyline.
Influence[]
The building is based on Uganda House[1] located on 336 E 45th St, New York, United States. As Uganda is an African nation, the choice of name for the Africa Tower is fitting. While bearing a close resemblance to the Uganda House, the Africa Tower faces east, as opposed to the Uganda House's alignment towards the north.
