Not to be confused with Castle Gardens, a different neighborhood in Liberty City.
Castle Garden is a neighborhood in Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars located in the southern region of Algonquin, Liberty City.
Description[]
It is bordered to the northeast by Garnet Street (The Meat Quarter); to the west and to the south by the West River; and to the east by Union Drive West (Suffolk, City Hall, and The Exchange). Castle Garden City is an upscale, primarily residential waterfront neighborhood. Castle Drive, which runs along Castle Garden City Park, is fringed by high-rise apartment buildings and the Castle Drive Red Green Building, a luxury hotel. Castle Garden City is home to the WTF Center, a shopping center and office building complex.
Influence[]
Battery Park City serves as the entire inspiration for the neighborhood. From its location on a peninsula of sorts separated from the financial district of its city by a major street to it being named after a nearby neighborhood (Castle Gardens is to Castle Garden City as Battery Park is to Battery Park City), it's obvious as to what Castle Garden City is supposed to emulate.
Making the Battery Park City connection even more obvious is the presence of what appears to an imitation of the World Financial Center (as the WTF Center, complete with a replica of the famous Winter Garden) along the residential drive that branches off Castle Drive.

Transportation[]
The neighborhood is served by the Liberty City Subway system. The Feldspar station, which is actually located along Union Drive West, between Frankfort Avenue and Emerald Street, is served at all times by the Algonquin Outer Line.
