The governmental operations of the Central Territory are housed in a territorial headquarters building in Chicago, Illinois. The building appears to be a tall abandoned bank choked with dust except for a highly polished floor, with the government office accessible by elevator. The headquarters consists of seventeen levels, including four basement floor and thirteen floors above-ground. The Governor-General's offices occupy the 13th floor, while the Territorial Census Office, Department of Creature Relations, the Voluntary Wand Registration Bureau, and the Office of Lycanthropy Research occupy the bottommost basement level B4.
