the districts Of new anGeLes
Each of the districts in the city of New Angeles is described in more detail below.
Guayaquil
Guayaquil used to be the biggest city in Ecuador. Now it’s the biggest
slum in New Angeles. Whole sectors of the district are no-go zones
for the NAPD, and even once-vibrant landmarks like Jack Weyland
Arcology are showing their age and crumbling away.
But for all that, it’s still the most populous district in the city. It’s got the
biggest port, it’s still got some money, and so what if most of that money
is in the hands of orgcrime? It’s not like there’s an appreciable dierence
between them and the corps, from the point of view of José Q. Público.
Quinde
e big, beating heart of Quinde is JQ Station, the enormous rail and
tube-lev hub that feeds the factories of Quinde district. e district is its
factories, its smelters, its power plants. It sure isn’t its human workers,
who are more and more being replaced by androids. Hell, the androids
are being built in one factory and walking across the street into the next
to take another human job.
It’s no wonder that Human First recruiters trawl the streets here, nding
angry men and women to join their movement.
La Costa
It’s easy to think that the biggest city in the worlds must be nothing
but starscrapers, marching from the Root down to the sea, but it
just isn’t true. New Angeles is huge, and there’s still, even today, open
land and green growing things. (Well, mostly green; the acid rain
notwithstanding.)
Most of that land is in La Costa. ere are actual farms and orchards,
here! And towering megafarms, the agroplexes that are methodically
exterminating all other farming by sheer eciency.
Manta
Manta is white sand beaches and high-rise hotels, rich brats and
dilettantes. It’s also a high-tech district clustered around the HB HQ
and progressive rings of lower- and lower-rent residences the further
from the coast you go.
On the whole, Manta is one of the nicer districts. Good tourism, a
vibrant tech hub, and middle- and lower-class housing, all in the same
district. Just don’t rock the boat.
Rabotgorod
ey call it “Robot City” now, both because the Russian name is hard
to pronounce and because of all the androids that live there. Dwell
there? Are warehoused there? Whatever, a lot of the old buildings that
were once lled with Russian émigrés during the Project days are still
standing, and rather than repair them up to code, the slumlords who
own ‘em rent them out to androids and android owners. ere’s still
plenty of esh-and-blood humans in the district and all the necessities
and businesses and industries that come with that, but all anyone ever
talks about are the androids.
Nihongai
Nihongai is immaculate, kept that way by legions of very polite and
well-behaved clones. It doesn’t have quite as much open green space as
La Costa, but it does have its share of parks. And it has gardens. It has
gardens integrated into its arks and shopping districts, it has gardens
that spill down the sides of buildings, it has gardens hidden around
blind corners or down below the slidewalk — just everywhere! Most of
these gardens are made according to Nipponese sensibilities, owing to
the large proportion of the district that has its origins in Japan.
When Jinteki Biotech moved its headquarters to Nihongai a while back
it must have felt not that dierent from Neo-Tokyo. More Spanglish in
the streets, maybe, but at times it does feel that Jinteki has managed to
just import their home country wholesale into the parts of the district
they own outright.
Laguna Velasco
LV is the hoitiest and toitiest of all the districts. It’s home to City Hall
and Levy University and the NAPD HQ, but most importantly it’s home
to lots of rich people. e lake, Laguna Velasco Ibarra, is the choicest
real estate with the best arcologies nearby. But the really, really rich
people don’t live at the top of kilometer-tall towers, they live in rambling
mansions with gardens and only a handful of oors, you know, like the
old days. Devoting that much real estate to a single family is so wasteful
and so luxurious it’s almost unbelievable. Which is probably the point.
Rutherford
You ask anyone in the worlds to close their eyes and picture New
Angeles, chances are they’re seeing Rutherford in their mind’s eye.
(Except for people with aphantasia, but, you know.) It’s not as hologenic
as, say, Laguna Velasco or Nihongai, but it is home to NBN and the
worlds-famous Broadcast Square.
Rutherford is New Angeles at its most New Angeles. It’s full of dreams,
fullled and broken (but many, many more of the latter). Atop the
glittering arcologies, the rich live and play, and deep in the undercity,
people and androids dwell in the worst poverty imaginable. It’s also a
nancial and media hub, as powerful and important as any district.
