Museum Authority Building

The Museum Authority Building is a medium-sized building in Washington, D.C.'s Mall. The associates of Griffon are using this place as their headquarters.

Exterior
The Museum Authority looks like a fairly standard office building. The entrance is located on the eastern side of the building. Some radroaches and skeletons are found in front of it.

Interior
The interior features multiple floors and is protected by three ghoul guards. One of the ghoul guards is carrying the audiotape Griffon's bottling instructions, which can be looted after he is killed. The top floor is divided into two large rooms, one with office cubicles and another with a large counter. There are also two bathrooms. A staircase at the northwestern corner of the building connects to the lower floors. The intermediate level is partially collapsed and contains a few office desks as well as filing cabinets. On the lowest level, Griffon's bottling operation can be found, consisting of a few bath tubs, sinks, and a closet containing a lot of wigs. Another copy of "Griffon's bottling instructions" is laying on a table in between bathtubs.

Notable loot

 * Griffon's bottling instructions is on a small, circular table in the basement, between two of the tubs.
 * There is a Nuka-Cola Quantum in the rear tank of a toilet in the women's restroom, just inside the entrance and to the right as you enter the building.
 * The cabinet in the basement contains 5 rare wigs and the ghoul guard with Griffon's bottling instructions is wearing a wig as well.

Appearances
The Museum Authority Building appears only in the Fallout 3 add-on Broken Steel.

Bugs

 * Crouching in the faucet end of the bathtubs will result in a slight amount of radiation exposure, despite the fact that actually drinking the water does not give rads. This may be either an oversight or a game engine limitation.
 * The HUD display reads "Strength1" when examining the bathtub water where it should list the rads present in the water. This is likely because the water in the tubs is supposed to be aqua pura, and thus has no rads. In the PC version, the display shows "HP 20" and "Rads 0" as expected.
