The Watchtower was a loft apartment that was the headquarters of Green Arrow's team.
History
Bought by Henry James Olsen as a wedding present to his wife, Chloe Sullivan. After Olsen's death, Chloe turned the loft apartment into the new headquarters for Green Arrow's team.[1] Using fonds from Queen Industries, Dr. Emil Hamilton installed an advanced computer system in the apartment.[2]
Following the event known as "Contact", the organization decided to set up an outpost on the Moon.[3] The loft apartment, along with the rest of the building, was ultimately destroyed in the battle against the Monitors.[4]
After the battle, the city of Metropolis constructed Liberty Park, where the Watchtower building once stood. They also raised a statue in the park of Superman, Green Arrow, Martian Manhunter, Batman, Red Tornado, Wonder Woman and the Green Lantern: the newly formed Justice League.[5]
Notes
- After Tess Mercer broke into Watchtower, Oliver Queen had his company place a Watchtower Orbiter into space.[6]
Trivia
- The exterior of the building is the Sun Tower (digitally enhanced) in Vancouver.
