The Thunderbird Tower was designed by [[Microsoft Sam]]'s personal Engineering Overseer Robot in April 2011, but details about the concepts and plans were never revealed to the public. Construction began on April 17, 2011. Construction proceeded smoothly for weeks, carried out by Certified Construction Bots provided by the United Lols of Roflica government. However, a major disruption occurred on May 21, 2011. On Harold Camping's predicted date of the Rapture/End of the World, everyone was bracing for a cataclysmic earthquake that would have destroyed the entire city and the world. Instead of a Rapture/quake, a catastrophic Wave of Nothing swept over the planet, resulting in nothing happening. Construction resumed and finished a week later.

The building is designed into nine different blocks - Blue, Green, Yellow, and Red. Blue Block consists of two blocks extending from the first floor up to Floor 50. Green Block consists of two blocks extending from the first floor up until Floor 64. Yellow Block consists of three blocks extending from the first floor up until Floor 90. Finally, Red Block consists of two massive blocks from the first floor up to Floor 108.[[File:Willis_Tower_tube_structure.png|thumb|The structural layout of the Thunderbird Tower.]]

The tower serves as a direct link between [[Earth 2]] and the Thunderbirds101 TV Space Station in orbit. The twin antenna on the top of the tower provides a connection between the tower and the space station. The antenna also provides an emergency impregnable shield dome to the tower and all areas within a one-hundred kilometre radius should a nuclear attack or other similar disaster take place. The tower itself is 110 stories tall. The floors are divided into sections as follows:
