Like much of Algonquin south of Topaz Street, Exchange is intended to lay host to a number of high-class organizations and retail outlets. In gameplay, however, the area boasts only one of two [[Perseus]] clothing stores in the city, as well as housing the offices of [[Goldberg, Ligner & Shyster]]. A non-interactive [[Al Dente's]] restaurant is also based in The Exchange. | Like much of Algonquin south of Topaz Street, Exchange is intended to lay host to a number of high-class organizations and retail outlets.

The Exchange is evidently the in-game equivalent of [[wp:Financial District, Manhattan|Manhattan's Financial District]] in [[wp:New York City|New York City]]. In comparison to other districts in Algonquin, however, the Exchange's design in detail is less adherent to that of its real-life counterpart. While developers of the game have taken artistic liberties when designing and creating some of the district's buildings, elements of buildings from Manhattan's Financial District may still be visible if inspected in detail. | The Exchange is evidently the in-game equivalent of [[wp:Financial District, Manhattan|Manhattan's Financial District]] in [[wp:New York City|New York City]].
