Old Olney S. Wilson Building

Old Olney S. Wilson Building is a collapsing office building in the Fallout 3 add-on Broken Steel which can be accessed via Old Olney Underground.

As part of the quest Shock Value, the Lone Wanderer passes through this area to reach Olney Powerworks. The area is inhabited by four Enclave soldiers who arrive via a Vertibird on the top level shortly before the Lone Wanderer.

Notable loot

 * Two of the rare Police Hats can be found here. One is in an office near a cash register, and another is in the center of the room perched above the toilet on a piece of concrete jutting out from a supporting column. Standing on the empty deathclaw cage enables access to the latter one.
 * A reasonably rare Bubblegum can be found on the very bottom floor in the southeast corner.
 * Two mini nukes, sitting on a ledge inside of the fallen length of radio tower in the center of the area. To retrieve them, you can either shoot them off the ledge and then gather them from the floor below; or make your way up to the east side of the highest level of the building and jump into the length of tower's open end.

Appearances
Old Olney S. Wilson Building appears only in the Fallout 3 add-on Broken Steel.

Points of Interest

 * Tucked away behind some filing cabinets in the northwestern corner at the same level as the door to the Olney Powerworks entrance, there is a teddy bear playing "cards" with a Garden Gnome using Metro Tickets as cards. The Garden Gnome is smoking and has a pair of Eyeglasses. There is a Whiskey, two Shot Glass and an Empty Whiskey Bottle close at hand. One would assume that the Pre-War Bonnet and the Sexy Sleepwear next to the teddy bear means the game is not going well for the Gnome. Both the hat and the Sleepwear are at 100% condition.
 * It is possible to get to the upper levels, try climbing the rubble that is immediately to the left as you enter the open zone. An inquisitive player is rewarded by finding small amounts of more exotic ammunition and some chems on the upper floors, such as a Nuka grenade, Electron Charge Pack in buckets, as well as access to ammunition boxes and Nuka-Cola machines.
 * The two mini nukes - the real prize of this area - can be obtained in a number of ways. They are sitting on a small ledge high within the grating of the radio tower that fell into the center of the building (the GNR billboard is leaning against it). You'll have to look carefully because they blend well into the girders. To retrieve them without expending any ammunition, climb to the highest level reachable via the pile of debris to your left as you enter. Make your way along the east wall (the one on your right as you enter) until you reach two Nuka-Cola machines (one has fallen over). Step toward the center of the building, to the edge, just to left of the desk, and take a flying leap into the broken mouth of the fallen radio tower. If you extend your jump as far as possible, you should be able to land on the ledge with the mini nukes. Sometimes the nukes fall to the ground so searching the rubble under the radio tower grating will enable you to retrieve them. Searching the rubble under the broken girders will also reveal a Nuka grenade on one side, as well as a bucket of pulse grenades on the other.

Bugs

 * The rotor noise from this Vertibird stops if you either activate your Pip-Boy 3000 display, or save and re-load the game while in the area.
