It's still open and occupied by 1700 people per day.
If it is in a major american city, either someone is getting paid under the table, or the maintenance personnel don't have a clue what a safety check list is.

However TWC 7 is a completely different kettle of fish. I've had experience with GSA space jockies, they're always moving people around forcing utility changes, and each time the systems have to pass city building inspections.

Your local fire marshall's a crook, and for your own safety you might think about changing jobs.
