The Triangle Building is a building and landmark in Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars located in The Triangle, Algonquin, Liberty City.
Description[]
The Triangle Building occupies a trapezoidal city block bounded to the north by Hematite Street, to the east by Columbus Avenue, to the south by Garnet Street, and to the west by Burlesque. The building, with a distinctive triangular profile, is 16 stories high. The building holds several restaurants, including Viendemorte, Rusty Brown's Ring Donuts and Al Dente's, with Grand Opening banners along the side. Revolving doors around the building address the building as "1717", however it is unknown which street it is addressed to, as this sign is repeated on all three sides.
The building is situated south of the Daily Globe Building, west of Leopolds and east of Spender's. It is also nearby the Triangle Tower, Rotterdam Tower and Grand Easton Terminal.
Peep That Shit lists the Triangle Building as one of their "sights" to soak in on their website, peepthatshit.com, located at peepthatshit.com/sightstriangle.html. They claim the building was "built by some really feminine dudes"[1] and that it is "reportedly the most photographed building in the world".[2] They describe it as having a funny shape and it being famous. [3]
In Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, only the base of the building is visible due to the "top down" perspective. However, its possible to see the entire building in the background when talking with the drug dealer in City Hall, Algonquin. Rusty Brown's Ring Donuts and Viendemerte are absent in this game. A Banshee will always spawn near the building.
Influence[]
The Triangle Building appears to be based on the Flatiron Building[4] located on 175 5th Ave, New York, United States.
