City Hall is a neighborhood in Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars located in the southern region of Algonquin, Liberty City.
Description[]
City Hall is bordered to the north by Emerald Street (Little Italy and Suffolk), to the west by Union Drive West (Castle Garden City), to the south by Barium Street (The Exchange), and to the east by Columbus Avenue (Chinatown).
It serves as the government seat of Liberty City and, as such, is a center of political activity in the city. The neighborhood serves as the civic center of not only Algonquin, but the entirety of Liberty City. It's home to the mayor, Julio Ochoa, of course, and the neighborhood is primarily commercial and governmental in nature, but a few residential sectors exist along its eastern face, while the centerpiece of the district is a delta-shaped park bordered by Liberty Lane, Emerald Street, and Denver Avenue.
City Hall's most prominent landmarks includes a low-rise town hall at the northern edge of the park, and a towering municipal complex to the east, which is distinguished by its street level central arch and cylindrical crown. Both buildings are presumed to house the city's administrative organizations.
City Hall Hospital is on Union Drive West; however, it is the only one in the city that's not used for restoring health and is inaccessible.
Events of Grand Theft Auto IV[]
The City Hall is featured in the mission "Entourage" in GTA IV, where Jon Gravelli asks Niko to stay in convoy with a bunch of City Hall cars to take the government member Bobby Jefferson to a meeting at the city hall building where he gives a speech against gang problems in the city. The convoy is ambushed by a group of Russians, and Niko has to protect Bobby.
Influence[]
City Hall is a very detailed, accurate imitation of Civic Center, Manhattan.
