Enron
Regional Headquarters
|
The latest addition to the Bricktopia skyline is the Enron building. Despite claims of its demise, Enron persists and continues to manage its corrupt empire of energy. In fact, in some places, such as BrickTopia, expansion was actually required. With the phenomenal growth of BrickTopia and its suburbs, there is great need for energy. Enron bought up the old BrickTopia power plant and has built several others in outlying regions. With all of these plants and the money they generate, there was a legitimate need for an office building to manage and coordinate production. The problem was money. With its bankruptcy in full force, Enron could hardly afford the funds to put up a new office building. However, crafty Enron executives came up with an innovative solution. As one may know, many Enron assets have been put up for auction, generating incomes equal to a surprisingly small fraction of their original value for creditors. This is no accident. Enron executives have a plan for dominating each of these auctions with paid thugs. These thugs bully other buyers away and then cooperate on the bidding, ensuring that nothing sells for anything more than pennies on the dollar. Then, the goods are secretly taken back to Enron and either kept for future expansion, or sold at a hefty profit through pawn shops, on-line auctions, and other venues. Thus, Enron executives squirreled away quite a bit of money from these exploits, as well as a large, attractive “E” logo suitable for a wonderful new regional headquarters in Bricktopia. |

The result of the "savings" plan is this breathtaking, new tower in the Euphoria suburb of BrickTopia. No expense was spared in its construction. Nearly 100
rare 1x4x6 white, 3-paneled glass windows were imported from The building is designed in the Deconstructionist style. Walls and windows
are bent, distorted, and angled in highly unusual patterns. Even in the
modern atmosphere of Bricktopia, this building is one of the most daring. |

Here, one can see the building entrance. As an added convenience, Bricktopia citizens can pay their energy bills in person. The gentleman on the bottom of the picture is doing just that. So is the gentleman in the center of the shot.... but wait, why is he leaving with money? Shouldn't it be the other way around? This citizen looks suspiciously wealthy. Hmm... Perhaps something is going on here. Check out the interior descriptions below to see what might be happening. Beyond the suspicious character is the front entrance. It utilizes
an unusual door design. The door is a 1x4x6 window panel inset one stud
and mounted on a turn table. When closed, it seals the entrance tight
and looks just like a window. However, it can swing backwards to allow
entry. |

The picture below shows the top of the building. Note the unusual curves and angles.
