Network 54 Building

The Network News 54 Building is a location featured in the pen and paper RPG.

Overview
Net 54 office building is 43 stories tall, despite its relatively stunted size, it is always visible to the public eye. Searchlights on each of the four rooftop corners help this, as does the continuous air traffic to and from the building, the mirrored walls, and the scintillating, red neon "54" plastered in fifty-foot digits near the top of each side of the building. The roof is entirely covered with AV-4 pads and heliports for the roving news teams. There is a subterranean parking lot and loading dock. All the stairways and elevators are internal.

The reception area of the Net 54 building is open to the public, and there are several facilities for public use, including a huge gift shop and boutique, screening rooms, an infirmary, a restaurant, and a cafeteria. The cafeteria actually tends to be more popular than the restaurant because Net 54's stars sometimes eat there during filming breaks. This draws large numbers of tourists. Since many of Net 54's shows are taped live before studio audiences, several of the sound stages are open to the public. Tickets are usually required for admittance to these areas, and security is always heavy. There are also guided tours of non-proprietary recording and production facilities. Facilities off-limits to the public include a surgery/ trauma center, a rec-center, a second cafeteria, the vehicular areas, several lounges, and housing for news teams.

Access to non-public areas is tightly controlled; security patrols and monitors all areas 24 hours a day. All persons who leave the reception/hospitality area will be asked to produce a show ticket or valid guest pass. Persons who stray from the well-designated audience areas are subject to arrest.

The Network News 54 Building is situated in Night City's Corporate Center sector of downtown, in the Corporate Plaza district.
