The name "Newcenter" came from the man behind The Body by Fisher corp.

He wanted to build a seperate business district from downtown(an uptown area).

He called the area...The newcenter for business.

So the name stuck and the rest is history.

Nice drawing. I wish I could do those, but I just don't have the time necessary to put into something like that anymore.

I should dig up the renderings for the Fisher Building. I have them somewhere. They are hard to come across.
