Basic Info:

The Wagner Building

Description

One of fourteen non-NecroTech buildings in Darvall Heights. The Wagner Building is located directly in between St. Isidore's Church and Holloms Auto Repair. Since both of these buildings are actively used by defenders of Caiger Mall The Wagner Building often has frequent travelers. Before infection it was the most frequent building for suicides in Malton. With its fourty-five stories and easy access to the roof it led many to choose it as the site of their death. Its height has also been a blessing in the housing of survivors from the infected. The building has never been fully taken as zombies have never made it past the third floor. The refugees there are content and feel secure with their shelter.

History

In October 2007 a series of fires broke out in the top five stories of the building due to over zealous Halloween partying. After several days of major survivor fire fighting efforts major structural damage was avoided for the lower floors. However the damage to the upper levels has rendered the building mostly unsafe for long-term safehouse use. The resident population has seriously declined as a result and repair efforts on the upper floors have been slow.

With the 2010 New Year a large remodeling effort began on the Wagner building. Survivors from across the suburb pitched in, whether they be frequent residents or just passing visitors. The effort had a very communal attitude, with contributors adding small portions whenever they could. This reconstruction was put on hold during an upsurge in the local zombie population. In February, only a few months after the effort began, the Wagner Building was completely occupied by the zombie horde for the first time in the building's history. The upper floors were more accessible than they would have been otherwise because of improperly monitored remodeling efforts.

Barricade Policy

This building should be kept at Extremely Heavily Barricaded (EHB) at all times. The building's primary function in support of the surrounding suburb is as a Free Running lane between Caiger Mall and St. Isidore's Church and as such does not need to be kept open to survivors entering from the street. The Wagner Building is also a secondary stronghold should a neighboring Tactical Resource Point be breached.
