South West Hill

South West Hill was located in the West Hill district of Central Night City.
==Overview==
This portion of the district was nestled between Night City University to the south, and the rich executive-class apartments of West Hill Gardens to the north. It was a transition neighborhood home to many students, artists, and small businesses of all sorts. Small coffee houses and boutiques along Lake Park gave this place a Greenwich Village atmosphere.
Notable businesses in this area included a block in the southernmost portion which had the Rainbow Art Supply store, a taco stand and a convince store, evidencing of the bare minimum artists required to create their works. There were also numerous services in the northern blocks, mainly coffee shops and a copy store. Additionally, much of the warehouse space had been converted into artist studios, housing many art galleries in the lower floors, while others housed different small businesses. Silverhand Studios had opened an outlet as well. Other larger corporations also used the warehouses to store their goods. Throughout the neighborhood there were a few dataterms and a screamsheet boxes. A mixture of students, artists and professionals rented the apartment buildings in this area.
People could come here anytime in the weekend to see artists' works displayed along the sidewalk. For several blocks, these artists set up their artwork in what amounted to a giant outdoor gallery. Tollaré used to paint in a studio in this neighborhood before he was widely known, and during the late 2010s and early 2020s you could sometimes find other well-known artists such as Harold Pickman and J.T. Harris displaying their work here on the weekends.
Around 2020, this area had some trouble with the Bozos, a local posergang whose members had undergone plastic surgery and facial tattoos to make themselves look like carbon-copy clowns. They hanged around in identical orange fright wigs, dingy polka dot suits and floppy feet, harassing people as they passed by. The Bozos reveled in destructive practical jokes; one of their favorites was pouring a bucket of paint (or blood) on an artist's sidewalk display. Fortunately, their garish costumes made them easy to spot in a crowd, giving the artists opportunity to drive them off. Occasionally the Voodoo Boys also came up this way for a dose of culture, in which case everybody packed up and left the street.
