Some are NecroTech Buildings and can be identified by the "[NT]" appended to their name if you have the NecroTech Employment skill. Office buildings are tall enough for survivors to commit suicide from. They also provide a vantage point from which binoculars can be used. Office buildings can be barricaded normally.

The Ripley Building

Description

A marvel of 21st century design, The Ripley Building was one of Malton's centerpieces of architecture before the outbreaks began. A condominium built for NecroTech employees in Grigg Heights and nearby suburbs of Owsleybank, The Ripley Building was to house those working in the Merson, Woodborne, and adjacent, Challes buildings. The choice of Grigg Heights was the best option for the realty developers who noted the suburbs distinct, peaceful jazz club-culture.

From the outside, The Ripley Building looks like a homogenous crystal spire that would not be out of place in a futuristic science fiction setting. This seemingly kitsch design hides the fact that it has four Olympic-sized swimming pools in floors 15 and 24, two gardens/greenhouses (floors 17 and 21), and five gymnasiums (floors 4 and 44). It also has 3 cybercafes, 7 restaurants (serving Italian, Greek, French, Japanese, Thai, Chinese, and Filipino cuisines), and an "Edge roller coaster" and "Skywalk" attraction (both of which extend from and retract back to the building depending on use).

The amenities and unusual design landed it on the cover of Malton Living, the premiere living magazine, a mere two months before the outbreaks began.
