Acropolis Ridge

Acropolis Ridge is a multi-level city complex founded directly off of Helios Peak, Washington. The supercity was built directly into the cliff face as a multi-level building with the multiple levels serving as the various class distinction, from the poor to the wealthy.

History
Acropolis Ridge was founded in 2001 by an anonymous contributor alongside the Washington Bureau of City Planning and the Department of Energy as an experiment into clean and renewable energy, hoping to test out several theories within the city complex in hopes that the project would work. However, the energy couldn't be produced as efficiently as they had hoped and the energy plan was dropped in favor of expanding the city upward.

The Acropolis Ridge is a multi-structured complex, composing of a structure similar in appearance to the Pentagon, if the Pentagon had more levels within it. The very bottom level of the Ridge composes of the Lower Class citizens who either experience poverty immensely or seek to operate illegally without being detected. The Middle Class thrive on the center portion of the Ridge, using access and enjoying the normal amenities as normal Middle Class citizens would. However, the Upper Class of the Ridge have exclusive access to every level to use as they see fit, often a pathway for rumors and illegal work to be done; dirty work is paid off between the Upper Class and the lower ones with no one the wiser, leading the crime within the Lower Level to spread throughout the entire city.

Despite the city's mass spread of crime, Acropolis Ridge is home to several companies ranging from the automobile industry to the lanescaping service, the most prominent being the illustrious Animus Pillars, one of several art installations throughout the city that doubles as a base of operations of the well known company. Animus Pillars, however, is known for its wealth of urban legends surrounding it, the most famous of which is that Animus Towers was, in fact, not created or even monitored by Animus but rather than the infamous Foundation. However, despite these rumors, Animus Pillars quickly became widely known for its focus on the people of the city and its future, developing new technologies such as the mono-transit elevator system that the Ridge continues to use even today.
