Irvington Theater District

Description

A row of aging theaters, some still quite grand and imposing in their growing decrepitude, spans this broad boulevard, all of them dating from the late 19th to early 20th centuries. Rather than the top hats and evening gowns that the surroundings seem to demand, however, most passersby are attired in slightly threadbare modern fashions. In front of one derelict theater, a shabby-looking vagrant panhandles, singing old show tunes in an incongruously lovely voice.  

Rumors

The Toreador Primogen has spoken in public about wanting this area restored.  

Traits

Physical: Access +1, Safety –1. The ancient trolley still runs parallel to the theater circuit, but the neighborhood has certainly seen better days.   Mental: Information –1, Awareness –1. No longer a playground for the elite, the theater circuit is behind the times and largely overlooked.   Social: Prestige –1, Stability –1. This area is now poor and increasingly run down.  

Haven Qualities

Location 4, Security 3, Size 4. Hunting is plentiful in this area, which benefits from the presence of the readily secured old homes of the long-vanished upper class that used to dwell here, which are huge, though often in need of a bit of repair and touching up.
