Concord House is the headquarters of the Concord Alliance Treaty Organization (CATO) located in Lindstrom, Natopia. Originally known as the Silverlight Palace, the building was acquired by CATO in 1734 AN to serve as its central administrative and diplomatic hub. The imposing structure, with its distinctive neo-classical facade and sprawling grounds, stands as a symbol of the alliance's commitment to collective security and international cooperation.
Built in 1650 AN as the residence of the Duke of Lindstrom, Silverlight Palace was renowned for its opulent interiors and extensive art collection. The palace complex spans over 50,000 square meters and includes the main building, several annexes, and meticulously landscaped gardens. Following its purchase by CATO, the building underwent extensive renovations to accommodate the organization's needs while preserving its historical significance. The renovation project, completed in 1732 AN, added state-of-the-art communication systems, secure conference facilities, and a new wing to house the alliance's growing staff.
Today, Concord House is a bustling center of diplomatic activity, hosting regular meetings of the Concord Council, the Military Committee, and various working groups. The building's east wing houses the Situation Center, a high-tech facility for monitoring global security developments and coordinating CATO operations. The west wing is home to the alliance's administrative offices and a public information center that offers guided tours to visitors. Despite its transformation into a modern headquarters, Concord House retains much of its original grandeur, with many of its historic rooms and artworks carefully preserved, serving as a reminder of the building's rich heritage and Natopia's commitment to CATO's mission.
