Administrative building

The Administrative Building is one of the most important buildings on your Island. Although it just sits there, does not generate income, and can not be replaced or relocated, without it your Island would be deserted. The Administrative Building hires employees for the other buildings to make use of (effectively making it an employment agency), and hence it is the heart of a vibrant Island.

Both halves of the island have their own Administrative Building. The workers they hire are cumulative. The Administrative Building on the old part of the island grows in size at Upgrade Levels 20, 40 and 60. The Administrative Building on the new part of the island is not yet implemented (as of Version 2.0.13).  Eventually the second admin building will be available when you buy the land region it resides in. It is just a ruin at first, but will eventually be repairable into its old stature.

Hiring employees

Look through the table below to see the costs for upgrading the Administrative Building and the number of employees it hires at the next upgrade. Note that both Administrative Buildings have the same values. Also note that the money spent on an upgrade is directly reflected in your Luxurity score.
