Boardwalk

The Boardwalk is a location in Brockton Bay, along part of its coastline near downtown and the docks.

Once a major tourist center, it had various upscale stores and restaurants along it. Although it was near some rough neighborhoods, it had private security that took a draconian approach to enforcement, leading to an absence of crime, but making it a hostile environment for anybody who didn't look sufficiently high-class to be a legitimate visitor or shopper there.

It took a bad hit from the attack of Leviathan, leaving it unusable; efforts to rebuild it began almost immediately, but were hampered by the series of other problems the city endured. For a time, it was in the territory of Skitter. After the economic boom caused by the opening of the interdimensional gateway in the city, it was rebuilt, but the "end of the world" came soon afterward, once again wrecking it.
