The Waters Building
Description
One of several buildings built by the same construction company. As such, they applied "value-added engineering" and used the same blueprints for several office buildings throughout Malton. This had the side benefit of making them easier for Survivors to search and secure.
The Waters Building contains the Phone Mast for Spicer Hills.
History
Built by and named after Mayor John Waters in 1977, the building was home to many business offices before the disaster. Considered by many to be a job-providing hero of the people, there were some who scorned the wealthy and successful Mayor Waters. His construction outfit would go to to build many of the higher office buildings in Malton, underbidding his competitors who mysteriously seemed to have their jobs mired in red-tape and workplace accidents. Suspicions of foul-play on the part of Mayor Waters were talked about under the breath of competitors and conspiracy theorists, but no official actions were ever initiated.
In the days following, the MalTel phone mast atop the building became a crucial resource for coordinating rescue and survival efforts of the people in Spicer Hills.
Barricade Policy
According to the Spicer Hills Barricade Plan, the Waters Building is to be Extremely Heavily Barricaded at all times in order to protect the portable generator from being tampered with. Should mobile phone services within the suburb cease, survivors are kindly asked to check on the building and confirm whether the portable generator is still intact or has simply has run out of fuel.
