'''Beechwood City''' is the most north-easterly neighborhood in [[Dukes]]). The neighborhood is home to a large Jamaican population. It is bordered by Lynch Street to the northeast ([[Willis]] and [[Meadow Hills]]); the [[Algonquin-Dukes Expressway]] to the northwest ([[Cerveza Heights]]); Wenrohronon Avenue to the west ([[Schottler]]); the [[Broker-Dukes Expressway]] to the south ([[South Slopes]]); an unnamed body of water to the southeast; and Saratoga Avenue to the east ([[Francis International Airport, Dukes|Francis International Airport]]). It is based on Jamaica, Queens.
==Character==
The neighborhood contains a mix of land use zones, due largely in part to its geographical location. Urban parts of the district can be found in the western part (near the [[South Slopes]] border), around the Homebrew Café and the [[Broker-Dukes Expressway]], which is a major thoroughfare bordering its east side. The northern part of Beechwood City, through which the [[Algonquin-Dukes Expressway]] passes, as well as the eastern part (near the airport) are primarily rural in nature. Finally, the southern part rests along the shoreline and features a rocky beach.
Although the exact location of this radio station is unknown, the DJ on [[Massive B Soundsystem 96.9|Massive B]] Radio reports that his station is based in Beechwood City just before airing the song "The Real McCoy". For housing an Afro-Caribbean population, Beechwood is also the center of operations for the [[Hillside Posse]] Yardies gang.
==Points of interest==
Beechwood City is the setting of the [[Homebrew Café]] at the intersection of Tutelo Avenue and the Broker-Dukes Expressway. The café is popular among Jamaican locals and is the only place in Liberty City where the player can interactively partake in a game of pool. Beechwood City also houses a [[Burger Shot]] outlet on Carson Street (just east of its intersection with the Algonquin-Dukes expressway), and a [[Car Wash|car wash]], also on Tutelo Avenue, north of the Homebrew Café. The Burger Shot is also a popular hangout of [[The Angels of Death]].
==Transportation==
The [[Liberty City Subway]] does not serve Beechwood City. However, three stations are within close proximity to the neighborhood. Residents in northern Beechwood City may choose to board at either [[Huntington Street LTA|Huntington Street]] (in Cerveza Heights) or [[Lynch Street LTA|Lynch Street]] (Meadow Hills/Willis border), while those in the southern and western parts can access the subway at [[Schottler LTA|Schottler]] station (which is really located in South Slopes).
