In Mohsin Hamid's The Reluctant Fundamentalist, this place is symbolically the location of "U.S.," where the protagonist Changez works. Another book set in this place popularized the term "Big Swinging Dick." The lawyer Tommy Weiss defends a character who works in this specific location, and whose life is ruined by articles published in The City Light. That character who works in this location calls himself the "Master of the Universe," but sees his life fall apart after his car (*) hits a black teenager named Henry Lamb. This setting of Michael Lewis's Liar's Poker appears in the subtitle of a story about a former employee of the Dead Letter Office who would prefer not to do work.
