The "Ghost Tower" refers to an air traffic control tower that was originally intended to be located within Fort Baxter in GTA Vice City. The building was removed prior to the game's release. It seemed to be meant to serve a runway at the base that was also cut pre-release. The low level-of-detail building, visible in both GTA Vice City and GTA Vice City Stories, can only be viewed before entering the mainland, before the loading screen of the mainland. The tower will not be visible if the player enters the mainland.

The tower still remains in the GTA Vice City Stories version of the city.
