 ===History===
-It is suggested that the building was built during the 1930s. It dominated the skyline just  after another tall skyscraper, the [[Zirconium Building]] was built a few blocks away. The Rotterdam Tower was the tallest building in the world, but was overcome by another unnamed skyscraper in another city. The tower got its name from "New Rotterdam", Liberty City's former name during the 1700s. This is an example of [[Rockstar Games]]' relentless use of parodies throughout the Grand Theft Auto series; New Rotterdam is a parody of New Amsterdam, New York City's former name, and the Zirconium Building is a parody of real-life [[wp:Chrysler Building|Chrysler Building]]
