Shoreside Vale is the third borough in Liberty City. Shoreside Vale is primarily residential, but also features the Francis International Airport to the south, a light commercial/industrial estate (Pike Creek) on the western edge, and the Cochrane Dam in the northwestern corner. Shoreside Vale is the only part of the city situated on the mainland and is considerably hillier than the other two boroughs, with a mountain range along the northern edge of the borough.

With steep elevation changes, a river dividing the main residential area from the industrial estate and the airport, and roads, bridges and tunnels criss-crossing each other at different elevations, Shoreside Vale is notoriously tricky to navigate. For this reason, Shoreside Vale is a very poor choice for the vehicle missions.

Trivia

  • The tunnel that leads from one side of Cedar Grove to the other seems to have another road that leads to another part of Liberty City. The tunnel is unavailable to the player in GTA III, but in GTA Liberty City Stories the player is allowed to use it to get to points around Cedar Grove. There seems to be another road that leads to a northern part of Shoreside Vale, but is blocked off and cannot be driven on. The sign above the road reads "Upstate". It is unknown if there is another part of Liberty City that wasn't exposed in GTA III or GTA Liberty City Stories or not but in GTA III the player can fly a Dodo around the "upstate" part of Liberty City and will only find more hills.
