As far as I recall the ONI building in New Alexandria is never referred to as Olympic Tower. The Fall of Reach places Olympic Tower inside the FLEETCOM Military Complex, which itself is in the Highland Mountains on the other side of the planet. Did we just assume that ONI couldn't have more than one skyscraper on Reach? --Our answer is at hand. Gravemind.svg (Talk to me.) 11:19, 30 March 2015 (EDT)

Reach definitely calls the building "Olympic Tower" somewhere — I believe it was either the in-game NAV point or objective description (EDIT: it's in a NAV point callout), though it's only called "ONI HQ" and such in dialog. But you're right in that its placement in New Alexandria is definitely a discrepancy, unless we're willing to ignore that HUD annotation. --Jugus (Talk | Contribs) 11:34, 30 March 2015 (EDT)
