I'd like to show the bridge, but the problem is, that it is right on the edge of my model, so I can't take a shot that wouldn't require a lot of photoshopping.

330 South Main Street was the most forgettable product of 60's and 70's building boom. With the height of 371 feet (113 m), it didn't stand a chance in the competition. The fact that almost nobody else besides the people who worked in the building, didn't know it's name or even that it existed, let to it being nicknamed the "John Doe Building" by the people who work there.
330 South Main Street has 24 stories and was completed in 1971.
The development of Rocane Center started in 1967, when its developer, the Delaware Development, chose the same Japanese architect, who at the same time was working on the World Trade Center in New York, to develop the building. He employd the same structural design as in the WTC, and the result was very similar to the Twin Towers. Rocane Center was the winner of 60's and 70's height war, so Delaware Development renewed their title of "developer of the winner of the height war" from the 20's 30's war. In 1999 Rocane Center was rented to the rapidly grown communications company connect.world Inc. and was renamed the CWI Center. connect.world survived the dot-com bubble, and still operates from the building.
With the height of 1089 feet (332 m), the CWI Center was the first building in Rocane to break the 300 meter mark. It has 75 stories and was Rocane's tallest building from 1973 to 2011, being the longest holder of that title.
