Ironbound Locations



There is no record how the Chinese kept their culture and practice, let alone their people, alive in the Ironbound when the bombs fell. With no Vaults, it was amazing that any survived. But as the prophet of 2075 foretold, The area of New Ark would be spared from direct hits, although he did not mention the lingering effects of the Fallout.

North Ironbound Crossing
The center of the Ironbound is here, where Ferry St, Wilson Ave, and Merchant St. merge. Although it was not hit by the bombs, after 300 years of disrepair many of the buildings are quite delapitated, but many are still used.

Yangtze Memorial Park
Originally Independence Park, the park was renamed in 2075, one year after the American Yangtze Campaign whereAmerican T-45d Power Armor units, conventional infantry, and mech infantry divisions outfitted with the Power Armor were deployed to China as part of an American counter-invasion of Chinese territory, but they became bogged down on the mainland, putting a further drain on American resources and supply lines.

Shanghai Nanjing High School
The school opened in 1911, and until the great war, was known to be one of the worst schools in New Jersey. At some point in the Great War the cities of Shanghai and Nanjing came under American occupation, and the Chinese Americans renamed the school. Despite outdated equipment and holotapes, the school is one of the few operating Public High Schools in the area. The Athletic Team, the Red Raiders, competes in intramural sports only, due to a lack of rival schools.

Krug's Tavern
Founded in 1932 by a german family, Krug's Tavern was bought out in 2043 by the Naing family. The family continued the Tavern's tradition of their "Krug's Burger" which is a local favorite Krug's Tavern sells alcohol, food, and the unique "Krug's Burger"

Olshin Clinic
Opened in 1907, Meyer Olshin purchased Dr. Dreyden's pharmacy and expanded over the next 150 years to include mail service, and medical clinc service. In 2039, the Yisheng family bought the building, but kept it as a clinic. For the next 250 years, through war and famine, the Sheng family has somehow managed to keep the doors of the Olshin Clinic open. Although no companies remain to produce meds, they can make small amounts at a time, but they rely heavily on traders for their merchandise.

Van Buren Library
The Van Buren Branch Library, located in Newark's Ironbound district, first opened its doors on September 23, 1923. For more than a hundred and fifty years, the branch had been a cultural and educational center within the community. After the bombs dropped, the library was abandoned. Some scavengers would pick through the library, because most of the books remained intact, but the poor construction made it dangerous habitat. However, some of the children have been seen going in and out at night.
