The exterior of the South Bohan Safehouse.
The South Bohan safehouse, situated at the southern end of Joliet St, is Niko Bellic's second safehouse in Grand Theft Auto IV.
Getting the safehouse
The safehouse was originally Mallorie's cousin's apartment but Mallorie gave it to Niko and Roman after the Broker Safehouse and Roman's depot burnt down during the mission Roman's Sorrow. It is the only safehouse that is available until new safehouses are earned in Algonquin, after the missions Hostile Negotiation and The Holland Play (the latter depending on a decision made by the player) and Alderney, after completing Ray Boccino's missions and either Truck Hustle or Smackdown (GTA IV).
Despite being unlocked later in the game, the safehouse is already accessible to the player at the beginning of the game through the rear door but the player cannot save the game, or use the wardrobe. Although the player can still watch television. The safehouse may also be entered via the same entrance in The Lost and Damned, although the television is not usable. Players in the original game may also utilize its parking lot before it is unlocked.
Amenities
It is similar to the Broker Safehouse, but a bit larger. There is a Honkers strip club poster and various items lying all over the apartment, including cola bottles, and Burger Shot items. It also has a futon for saving the game. Various furniture includes a table with fold-out chairs, an armchair near a TV, and a wardrobe to store Niko's clothes. A preacher or hippy may occasionally soapbox across the street from the safehouse. It is notable for being the only safehouse with a back door.
Trivia
- Unlike the Broker Safehouse, the South Bohan Safehouse has less gang presence and more of a seedy atomosphere, with several prostitutes spawning around the apartment. Although it is located within the Spanish Lords turf, they only tend to armed at night and will not engage in fights as much. The area also tends to be more dense and crowded with people in the street.
- A Madd Dogg CD along with a OG Loc CD can be found on the floor near the bed.
- A Burger Shot meal can be found on the dining table and it is there for the entire story.
- There is a ThriftEX DVD Player and coffee machine inside the house.
- There is a Rasta-Colored Bong near the TV, as well as a Pißwasser ash tray.
- Also near the TV is a picture of Niko and Roman standing outside their new home. On the photo Niko is wearing clothes from Modo, which he couldn't purchase at his first appearance in Bohan Safehouse, because bridges to Algonquin are still closed.
- Just across the street from the safehouse there is a spawn point at which a soapboxxer will commonly spawn.
- The take-away pizza box under the bed has The Well Stacked Pizza's logo on it, which was a restaurant chain featured in GTA San Andreas.
- The safehouse can be entered in both TLAD and TBOGT and before the player acquires the safehouse through the backdoor of the building where the player can watch TV. The frontdoor will be locked though.
- Upon leaving the safehouse, a member of the Spanish Lords is usually chased by a cop.
