SkyPoint

SkyPoint was a high-rise, high-tech apartment building built in Cardiff in 2008.

Features
SkyPoint had twenty-five floors with one hundred twenty-five two- and three-bedroom en-suite apartments. Two elevators connected the floors of the building, one for the public and a service elevator that went straight to the penthouse.

The entire building was decorated in white, black and grey, even down to grey glass automatic doors at the entrance and black apartment doors with grey lettering indicating the apartments' numbers.

Each apartment featured an open-plan lounge-kitchen-diner with a ready-wired High-Definition television. A remote operated the TV, window blinds and the dimmer lights. The kitchens featured intelligent lighting, a fridge that ordered food for you and an eco-friendly washing machine. The master bedroom of each apartment featured a super-king-sized bed, a dressing room and an en-suite bathroom. (PROSE: SkyPoint)

History
The project had been funded by the local criminal Besnik Lucca who, in exchange for his money, requested the penthouse apartment. He also had a major hand in the construction, ensuring it met his specifications. Several security cameras throughout each of the apartments, including the shower and bedroom, were fed to screens in the penthouse, allowing Besnik Lucca to observe the goings on in the building.

In 2008, Alison Lloyd moved to SkyPoint with her thought-form, Mr Pickles, which started feeding on people. Besnik Lucca learned of the thought-form and tried to study it. He was able to make friends with Allison and the thought-form in order to protect himself.

Eventually, Torchwood Three learned of the disappearing people and began investigating SkyPoint. Besnik believed that they were going after him and shut down the building. The thought-form believed it was under attack and started feeding on more people (including two failed attempts on the undead Owen Harper). Meanwhile, Alison went to her friend Besnik for protection. When Torchwood finally confronted Besnik, Alison and the thought-form were there at the time. The thought-form attacked, but Owen was able to kill it by injecting it with his blood.

By 2009, SkyPoint was in decline and the rooms were going cheap. There were two caretakers, one receptionist and 2 dozen residents. When the Vam learned of SkyPoint from a real estate agent, it ate all the people there and much of the building itself. (PROSE: Risk Assessment)

After this, SkyPoint went out of business and was in decay. It was destroyed when Ianto Jones, Jack Harkness and Nina Rogers threw an alien book into the Cardiff Space-Time Rift. (PROSE: Consequences)
