#CITY SKYLINE NIGHT FREE#
With the Collapse, many corporations had been looking to establish their own urban areas - controlled zones free of crime, poverty or debt.

Night secured an unheard amount of capital needed to finance the project. It was ambitious, far-reaching, and visionary in its approach. It would boast planned neighborhoods dedicated to preserving the feel of different types of nationalities and cultures, as well as an ultra-modern corporate center that would stand as a shining beacon of enlightened capitalism. His new city was to be completely planned, self-sufficient, and capable of holding off even the most determined criminals. He then founded a side company known as Night International, and began to plan an ideal new city - an environment that would be controlled and ultimately safe from the ravages currently tearing the world apart. Richard Night, a successful businessman who, during the 1990s, was concerned by the violence and disruption of the impending Collapse, came up with the idea of a utopia safe from crime.

It operates as a city-state, officially owning the title of Free City, with the Arasaka Corporation keeping control over it. Night City has wide streets and dense urban skyscrapers which are home to millions of residents. Founded by Richard Night, it was originally known as Coronado City before its renaming in 1998. Night City was established at the head of Del Coronado Bay in 1994. It is considered a modern multicultural metropolis of the 21st-century, overrun by corporations, corruption, organized crime and gang violence. The Free City of Night City (NC) is an autonomous city located on the border between North and South California, on the Pacific coast of North America.
