Although the group of terrorists appeared to be motivated by freeing political prisoners, they were actually after $640 million in negotiable bearer bonds and other valuables stored in the Nakatomi Corporation's vault and were planning on killing the hostages in an explosion so they could escape unnoticed. On Christmas Eve, 1988, a group of terrorists led by Hans Gruber took the Nakatomi employees hostage during their Christmas party. Like many skyscrapers, it features stairwells, elevator shafts, pipe shafts, offices, and a roof, all of which John McClane utilizes to his advantage to defeat all 13 terrorists that take it over. The building was nearing completion in 1987. It is a post modernly-designed, 35-story high skyscraper that is a total of 490 feet high.
