The Olympus Building - Batman: The Animated Series: Season One

The corporate headquarters for Maximillian Shipping Lines, The Olympus Building was the base of operations for Maximilian "Maxie" Zeus a corrupt C.E.O with ties to Gotham's Organised Crime Families. 

While the lower half of the building is a legitimate office space, the upper levels are dedicated to Maxie's delusions that he was the reincarnation of his namesake, with a hall dedicated to Greek statues and his very own Parthenon on the rooftop.

Those who crossed Maxie and the company were killed, either by the trio of serpents in the statue room, who represent the Hydra or by a rabid wild boar that gored his prey. They were also known to attack intruders, ensuring that no one could reach the rooftop without his expressed permission. 

After Batman stopped Zeus from using a stolen E.D.C. (Electron Discharge Cannon) to ransom Gotham, the device and the building were seized by the GCPD for further investigation.
