For some time before and after the the change-over from 1999 to 2000, the tower was occupied by Ashley Chapel and his company, Ashley Chapel Logistics, though there was little affluence out of the corporate offices. For a brief time after the change-over, due to Chapel's use of the Millennium Codex, a triangular area of London was warped by the interaction of the laws of three different universes into an expanse called the Great Kingdom. One Canada Place marked one of the triangle's corners. (PROSE: Millennial Rites)
