At a glance, the building was just another crumbling downtown apartment complex. Maybe some people noticed that the tenants kept strange hours, but in Gotham it didn't pay to stick your nose into such things. However, according to the intel, they weren't the crooks and gangsters that most people expected--almost the opposite. The 'tenants' were actually a live-in security force for the vault in the basement.
Aside from three stories of guards (although none of them heavily armed; had to keep up the facade after all) the vault itself was pretty secure. Fingerprint scanners, pressure plates, laser grids, the works. And even if one did get in undetected, almost everything inside was too large to be carried out by a lone cat-burglar.
Almost, but not quite, everything. The most valuable item in the vault wasn't heavy industrial equipment like the rest of it, but a single necklace. None of the info the master thief had gathered explained why this bit of jewelry was worth millions, but there were already buyers eagerly bidding on an item that hadn't even hit the market yet.
