This complex of office buildings, completed in 1992, incorporates the façades and other elements of several heritage structures, including the remarkable Nordheimer Building (1888).

Other attractions include a fragment of the Berlin Wall and a black granite reflecting pool with a fountain statue--a work by French architect and sculptor Dieudonné-Barthélemy Guibal (1699-1757) that originally topped a fountain in Saint-Mihiel, in the Meuse department of France.; Also the firm Becker, Gersovitz, Moss.
