Much of the island is in the shadow of the [[East Borough Bridge]] which connects the three boroughs, which features [[tollbooth]]s that the player must pay ($5) to go through in order to travel north to Bohan or west to Algonquin. | Much of the island is in the shadow of the [[East Borough Bridge]] which connects the three boroughs, which features [[tollbooth]]s that the player must pay ($5) to go through in order to travel north to Bohan or west to Algonquin.

Charge Island is almost entirely dedicated to industrial activity, the enormous East Borough Bridge and water treatment facility (also suggested to be a desalination plant) make it decidedly unappealing for residential development; in addition to the abovementioned bridge foundations and water works, the island features a boathouse and cargo dock to the northwest, a fuel repository to the east (with an oil tanker docked there at the time of [[Grand Theft Auto IV]]), and a baseball field to the northeast that is identical to the one in [[Meadows Park]] (The island's baseball field might be based off [[wp:Icahn Stadium|Icahn Stadium]]). | Charge Island is almost entirely dedicated to industrial activity, the enormous East Borough Bridge and water treatment facility (also suggested to be a desalination plant) make it decidedly unappealing for residential development; in addition to the abovementioned bridge foundations and water works, the island features a boathouse and cargo dock to the northwest, a fuel repository to the east (with an oil tanker docked there at the time of [[Grand Theft Auto IV]]), and a baseball field to the northeast that is identical to the one in [[Meadows Park]] (The island's baseball field might be based off [[wp:Icahn Stadium|Icahn Stadium]]). | ||
