King's

Revision as of 11:22, 12 May 2008 by Eganio (talk | contribs)

King's is a district of San Fierro that lies essentially at the heart of the city, with Downtown and Calton Heights to the north, Easter Basin to the east, Doherty and Garcia to the south, and Queens to the west. The name King's (note the apostrophe) is a foil to the tongue-in-cheek name of its neighbor, Queens, which is San Fierro's version of the famous Castro District in San Francisco, sporting gay-friendly street banners and a welcoming atmosphere.

King's is modeled after San Francisco's Noe Valley, which is situated just south of the Castro District. Like Noe Valley, King's is a residential/commercial district that is serviced by the cable car system. This district is home to numerous small businesses, of which only Zero's RC shop (on the district's southwest side) is accessible to the player. The general atmosphere is one of contentment, but with a modicum of aggressiveness. Members of San Fierro Rifa, who inhabit the south side of this neighborhood, will occasionally accost the player, making for potentially hazardous situations.
