Downtown Seattle
The lights! The sounds! The action! Home to the corps, the fat-cats, the rich and wealthy. And of course a veritable army of plebs out away from the glittering skyline. Let’s talk facts. Downtown is the crown jewel of the emerald city, and that means the security and corp presence here is sky high. Mandatory GridGuide, mandatory SIN broadcasting, the whole nine yards. That said, it’s still a pit of crime and opportunity, so don’t get too scared just because you’re some lunk with more mass in his muscles than his mind. Just use your head and you’ll be fine.
Before the Treaty of Denver created the city-state of Seattle, Downtown was Seattle. Today, it’s the heart of the sprawl. When people think of Seattle, they think of Downtown’s skyline in its chrome-polished, neon-infused, never-sleeps, AR-enhanced glory. Downtown is where the biggest biz in the sprawl happens. Other districts have their own action, but it pales in comparison to what’s happening Downtown. Only the best can handle operating here, and if you can’t deal with that fact, then get the hell out. What makes Downtown so fragging special? Well, it’s got more corporate, business, and government real estate per square kilometer than anywhere else in the Sprawl. Five of the Big Ten megacorps have regional HQs in Downtown, which makes the area ripe for running opportunities.
