{{Main|Human-Covenant war}} | |||
During the [[Fall of Reach]], [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] forces established a foothold in their skyscraper in New Alexandria. It's likely that skyscraper was lost to Covenant [[glassing]].<ref name="alexandria">'''[[Halo: Reach]]''' level ''[[New Alexandria (level)|New Alexandria]]''</ref> | |||
When the Covenant [[Battle of Mombasa|attacked]] [[Mombasa]], Vyrant Telecom's megatall skyscraper took significant damage.<ref>'''[[Halo 3: ODST]]''' - Level: ''[[NMPD HQ (level)|NMPD HQ]]''</ref> The Covenant eventually started glassing the city looking for [[Portal at Voi|an ancient artifact]]. This glassing likely destroyed the megatall.<ref>'''[[Halo 3: ODST]]''' - Level: ''[[Coastal Highway]]''</ref> | |||
===Post-war=== | |||
In either [[2557]] or [[2558]], Vyrant Telecom had multiple advertisements in the city of [[Pilvros]], [[New Carthage]].<ref>'''[[Halo 4]]''' - Multiplayer Map: ''[[Perdition]]''</ref> | |||

Vyrant Telecom had a number of skyscrapers in [[New Mombasa]]. The most prominent, and easily the tallest skyscraper in the city, is their 2km [[Vyrant Telecom tower (Mombasa)|megatall]] in New Mombasa's [[New Mombasa city center|city center]].<ref>'''[[Halo 3: ODST]]''' - Level: ''[[Mombasa Streets]]''</ref><ref group="note">Measurable by using pan-cam coordinates: the height cap is at 615 WU, the building extends a bit over that, and 1WU=~3 meters</ref> | |||
Much like the building in Mombasa, the [[Vyrant Telecom Tower]] in New Alexandria was among the highest buildings in the city.<ref name="alexandria"/> | |||
