Ivory Tower was a large skyscraper in New Mombasa.[1]
History
Formerly home to the famous socialite Lance O'Donnell, the top floor of the building was converted into a public park from its previous use.[2] This park served the upper echelons of New Mombasa society. War Games analysts enjoyed the verticality and vague symmetrical nature of the building, leading them to create a simulated version of it.[1] The real building was most likely destroyed when the Covenant Empire glassed most of New Mombasa in 2552.[3] In 2553, members of Blue Team trained in the War Games simulation of the building.[4]
