Hi!

I'm seeking donations to help move the World Trade Center from Archive to the new Main! I was in the midst of building the most accurate model I could, of the three I've built in the history of the server, then the big reset to ECC 2.0 hit, landing the most recent rendition on archive. Below is a collection of screenshots I took prior to the reset and the complex being placed on Archive.

















The topmost parts of the towers hit the old height limit, though "officially" their roofs are 189 and 188 blocks high. The complex' basement has two levels. The upper level was to be a community farm, the lower level was to be storage spaces for tenants in the complex. The complex even features a realistic structural support system.

The mall occupies the mezzanine level, immediately below the plaza. The mall has store spaces that can be rented out!

Above the lobby levels, the Twin Towers each soar roughly 24 in-game stories (ownable stories!) both feature sky lobbies as the real buildings did, mechanical floors, the observation decks and restaurant.

The plan was to build the "public areas" to resemble those in the real life buildings (sky lobbies, restaurant/ observation levels), while selling the 27x27x5 tenant floors to tenants to build their own suites. The wood floors are subfloors, and can either have another material covering them, or build directly on them. The undersides of the floors are also able to be covered with slabs, to customize the look. The only restriction is the columns in the middle of the buildings. They must remain in the space in some form (they can be made to match walls or changed to another material).

Why should you consider donating? I've been playing ECC for 9 years now, and was on the staff team around 4 years ago for around 7 or 8 months. Life changed and I resigned from my position (SuperMod), since then, I don't have a whole lot of time to dedicate to ECC these days, as I have multiple projects taking my attention in real life, but I reliably return. I would really like to transfer this build to the new server to continue, and to take advantage of the height limit to add more detail (The new limit will allow me to top the North Tower with an antenna, which I have designed already). If needed, I can rebuild the top halves of the Towers, as the upper 2//3 of each were not progressed very far. I'd need $142,000 to transfer the lowermost 50 blocks, where 90% of the work and almost all of the valuable materials are located. I'd rather not do this, as the Towers already have a fully functioning system of lift signs installed, and that's a lot of wood, andesite and glass I'd need to recreate. Haha. $628,500 should transfer the entire complex, from top to bottom, if I did the calculation correctly.

Given the vast quantity of "built" space that I'd be transferring to the new server (the Towers' floors alone cover almost a 200x200 if laid out!) we can easily set up a deal to give large donors space in exchange for their donations, if anyone would like to do so.

Thanks for reading!
