Golden Center

The Golden Center is an under construction complex made up of four skycrapers. The Golden Center 1 (North Tower), Golden Center 2 (East Tower), Golden Center 3 (South Tower), and Golden Center 4 (West Tower) will primarily house Cascadian government offices and office space. At 503 meters and 141 floors in each tower, the Golden Center will be by far the tallest buildings in Cascadia and one of the tallest in North America.

Ground was broken on June 24, 2010, and construction of the entire complex is expected to be completed sometime during December 2010 or early January 2011 due to the use of droids.

Design
Each of the towers will be shaped in an hexagonal design, shrinking towards the upper floors. To connect the towers, two skywalks (and a ground level connection) will connect all four towers supported by a pillar guyed to the towers. The towers' angles will gradually change from the 40th floor to the 110th floor. Each tower will be divided into four areas of 35 floors, with a skylobby bordering each quarter. The main elevators will be able to travel to any skylobby. The secondary floors will travel to floors above a skylobby until it reaches the next skylobby. There will also be a ground lobby. All lobbies with encompass two stories.

Emergency features include the presence of an elevator available for use in the middle of the higher skywalk, fire relief floors, high capacity escape elevators and seven wide staircases. In addition, there would be extra fireproofing of many materials in the case of a terrorist attack or fire.

Windows will be one meter wide, encircling every non-utility floor (which will instead feature vents around the floor). The towers will have a "triple tube design", the first tube being the outer skin, the second tube being the core wall, and the third tube being the inner core of a tower. This makes for a much stronger structure and column free floor space.
