'''Lower Easton''' is a neighbourhood seven blocks and a half wide in [[Algonquin]], [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|Liberty City]], bordering [[Easton]] and [[Presidents City]] to the north by Garnet St, [[Chinatown, Algonquin|Chinatown]] and [[Fishmarket South]] to the south by Emerald St, [[Little Italy]] and [[Suffolk]] to the west by Columbus Ave and [[Fishmarket North]] to the east by Borlock Rd. | |||
[[Category: | == Description == | ||
Lower Easton is comprised of low-rise apartments and offices that do not generally exceed a height of 10 floors, in contrast to Easton's taller and larger buildings, largely occupy the area. | |||
Few areas of interest may be noted in the district, aside from the [[LCPD in GTA IV Era|LCPD]] headquarters located in both Lower Easton and neighboring [[Fishmarket North]], being based on [[wp:One Police Plaza|One Police Plaza]] (NYPD headquarters), albiet significantly scaled down. While utilized in real-life as New York City's police headquarters, it remains to be seen if it is meant to serve the same function for the LCPD in the game. Interestingly, a [[Rusty Brown's Ring Donuts]] shop in is located just south from the station, across Feldpar Street, where police officers can be seen loitering outside. The building housing the donut shop even features a banner promoting a "Special Police Menu". | |||
Lower Easton is most likely a take on the [[wp:Lower East Side|Lower East Side]] in New York City, because the buildings in the area being mostly old tenements. And there are also some jewish-themed stores in the area, hinting at how Lower East Side was once the jewish ghetto in New York. | |||
== Transport == | |||
As is most lower east side Algonquin districts, Lower Easton has no direct connection to [[Subway in GTA IV|subway lines]] in the city. The closest stations are situated in neighboring districts: [[Emerald LTA]] in Suffolk and Little Italy (the closest to the district), and [[Easton LTA]] in Easton. | |||
