The company is notable for being a financier of the Porter Tunnel project, which faced numerous delays and only opened seven months behind schedule as a result (from the original projected launch in March 2001 to October 2001). The official GTA III website points the company's base of operation in the city to the third tallest building in the city in Torrington on Staunton, wedged between the Jefferson St. Credit Union building and AmCo's headquarters.
