'''Walter Corporation''' (or Walter Co.) was a company founded by [[Jeff Walter]] some time after 1945. Before Walter became known as a puppet for the local government, he was credited as the one who "Practically built Stalburg". The problems started to show when the [[S.N.W.]] and local government got hands in the company, and aimed to bankrupt [[Bergmann Group|Bergmann]], [[Hammer Valley Hydro]] and [[Stalburg Steel]] for different reasons.

==History==
==History==
Little is known about the founding of Walter Co. but it is assumed that it was founded some time after WW2 as one of the 4 companies that helped rebuild [[Stalburg]]. The companies CEO, Jeff Walter, was a respected man in Stalburg until the 1970s when his company started construction on the Walter Co. Tenements in [[Obenseuer]], which were built with subpar quality cement that was sometimes even mixed with dirt to save costs. Johan Stalberg was inspecting this and filed a report, but he was dismissed. His document can be found in a trash can in the map [[servicetunnel|Service Tunnel]], probably disposed of by someone at the [[skyscraper|Walter Tower]]. Taking a picture of it counts as corruption evidence. When construction on the Obenseuer Tenements ceased  after [[Alex Hartman]] killed Max Koller and Jeff Walter in cold blood at [[Villa|Rosenthal's Villa]], the Tenements became populated by homeless people who created their own little community. Later, Obenseuer was used as a place where homeless are taken against their will to "clean" the streets of Stalburg. Rumor has it that Jeff Walter was heavily influenced by the local government, which used his company as a cover up to bankrupt companies that were in possession of sensitive documents and many other things of interest. The S.N.W is also very close to Walter Co. and used Walter's money as funding for the bunker and the nuclear weapons they where developing. The Walter Tower was bought by [[Osmo Olut]] in January 2017 where they set up their new HQ.
Following the bombing and widespread destruction that affected Stalburg in World War II, the city's future looked deprived. Jeff Walter, a wealthy entrepreneur and native of Stalburg saw potential in his home city, and was determined to restore it to it's former glory. Walter founded and staffed his company with the city's homeless people to rebuild entire districts with affordable housing, roads, factories and other critical infrastructure. The result was resounding, with low unemployment rates and a noticeable increase in the city's population. With the rise of other industrial and energy companies, such as [[Hammer Valley Hydro]], [[Bergmann Group]], and [[Stalburg Steel]], Stalburg's future looked brighter than ever. 
 
After an indeterminate amount of time, several military representatives contacted Jeff Walter, seeking funding for an organization to develop nuclear weapons for the security of Stalburg.

Walter Corporation (or Walter Co.) was a construction company founded by Jeff Walter in Stalburg sometime after World War II.

History[edit | edit source]

Following the bombing and widespread destruction that affected Stalburg in World War II, the city's future looked deprived. Jeff Walter, a wealthy entrepreneur and native of Stalburg saw potential in his home city, and was determined to restore it to it's former glory. Walter founded and staffed his company with the city's homeless people to rebuild entire districts with affordable housing, roads, factories and other critical infrastructure. The result was resounding, with low unemployment rates and a noticeable increase in the city's population. With the rise of other industrial and energy companies, such as Hammer Valley Hydro, Bergmann Group, and Stalburg Steel, Stalburg's future looked brighter than ever.

After an indeterminate amount of time, several military representatives contacted Jeff Walter, seeking funding for an organization to develop nuclear weapons for the security of Stalburg. Amidst the leadership of the military however, were corrupt individuals that sought to exploit Walter's accomplishments for profit and control of Stalburg. Walter was unaware of these malicious actions and agreed to fund Stalburg Nuclear Weapons. S.N.W used Walter's financial imperium to contract the construction of an underground bunker beneath the Walter Corporation's headquarters, as well as take on the development of biological weapons to sell. Walter eventually became aware of the events that transpired, and was forced into hiding by government officials sent to silence him.

Effectively in control of Walter Corporation, S.N.W used its assets to create conditions that would allow them to buy out and bankrupt Hammer Valley Hydro, Bergmann Group, and Stalburg Steel, framing Jeff Walter and ruining his public image. During this time, construction on affordable housing projects such as Obenseuer were constructed haphazardly and with shoddy construction materials. After Xeander Berg's escape from the bunker and its subsequent closure, S.N.W disbanded and covered their tracks, leaving the Walter Corporation without management and presumably defunct.

INFRA[edit | edit source]

The Walter Corporation is mentioned in documents and audio logs throughout INFRA most of which were left behind by Hammer Valley Hydro's CEO, Alex Hartman.

Walter Corporation's headquarters is directly visited when Mark accidentally sets off an old trap under the Walter Tower that was left there by Alex Hartman to try to kill Jeff Walter. From there an elevator can be taken up to Jeff Walter's personal office, where a videotape Walter recorded of himself defending his innocence can be viewed.
