Federal Plaza

The Federal Plaza Building is one of the tallest structures in City Center, clad in red granite with brass fixtures and copper-tinted windows. The broad base of the building features a paved plaza complete with water fountains and tall windows looking into the spacious lobby. The design of the plaza is not just ornamental, it also creates an effective barrier preventing anyone from crashing a vehicle into the base of the building. The lobby has a government bookstore selling various federal publications. The building holds the offices of federal agencies in the city, including the FBI, IRS, Veterans’ Administration, and so forth.
The 23rd floor of Federal Plaza houses the public offices of AEGIS, but the agency’s real work gets done in a secret underground facility. It is absent from all building plans, heavily shielded, and equipped with the latest in hightech equipment, including an extensive computer database for tracking superhuman activity around the world.
