Places of Interest

Ahh, the places to go and people to see. What follows is a brief listing of various locales in Olympus worth a second look.

Akatendai Arcology Block:Primarily an industrial block, it houses most of the actual foreign corporate holdings. However, there are residences in the area for bioroids.

Anemos Arcology Block: Olympus' science arcology, it is where the GAIA super computer is housed (albeit a quarter mile underground). It also houses the Tartarus Arcology. Anemos means "Wind" in Greek.

Bezekric Arcology Block: The Bezekric Arcology Block is primarily a governmental block. It houses all of the foreign embassies as well as most of the government buildings. Most Corporations with interests in Olympus have their residences and headquarters based in this arcology. It is named for a Religious site of Buddhist cave grottos dating from 317 AD in the Flaming Mountains of China.

Central Olympic Arcology Block: Olympus' largest arcology block, it consists both of residential complexes and comercial districts. Most immigrant humans live in this arcology block; the ratio of human to bioroid is approxamitely 2:3. This, of course, makes this place a boiling point. Most of the Biocontrol Service Centers are based here.

Suiten Arcology Block: A second Residential and Commercial block, it also houses the Olympic Port Authority. It is named for several prominent Shinto shrines in Japan.

Tartarus Arcology:The huge, mirrored administration arcology in Olympus. Shaped like a semi-circle, it has thousands of floor levels, all of which are used towards the development and control of military grade weapon and armor development.

ESWAT Headquarters: This building is a massive police structure situated between the primary arcologies of the Central Olympic and Bezekric Blocks. It houses all aspects of ESWAT operations. It also contains the massive training facility (partially outdoors) that ESWAT uses to prepare for it's operations.

The 'Burbs: Between the large arcology blocks are miles and miles of country side, and expensive housing. The suburbs of olympus are something alot of people aspire for, but generally only high administrative positions and stuffed shirts can afford them (ESWAT agents are always in debt...). Still, they are beautiful, and they offer a chage of pace from the somewhat hectic life of the big arcology cities.
