Old Downtown

Old Downtown was a district of Central Night City, located to the east. It was considered part of the Upscale Brownstones.
==History==
===1990s - 2010s===
In the 1990s, Coronado City (later Night City) was established over the township of Morro Bay. During the construction of the metropolis, Richard Night decided to pay homage to the late and lamented municipality by recreating much of the original layout of Morro Bay into a small district with an open-air environment reminiscent of a seaside village that was eventually called Old Downtown. The former core of the original township became a picturesque mesh of older slums and new structures not far from the docks.
Unfortunately, after Richard's death, Night City fell into disarray, and what once was a beautiful district became infested by gangs. This made the nights dangerous, especially during a Rangers game in the neighboring McCartney Stadium. The only solid presence in this area was the notorious City Medical Center, which prevented Old Downtown from turning into a slum. As such, there were still businesses catering to corporates, solos, and other residents. There were also NCTC bus connections to other parts of Central Night City, which were available through lines 17, 22 and 23.
===2020s===
By 2020, there was no real identity to this area of the city. It was close to Charter Hill, bordering the Medical Center, and not far from the frequently used Del Coronado Bridge. But overall, this district was noting else except a neighbor to the dominating McCartney Stadium in New Harbor; even the term 'Old Downtown' wasn't really used anymore. Additionally, the urban struggle was starting to escalate here, as the gradual decrepitation had reached the City Medical Center and the Municipal Works Building, and colorful boostergangs like Maelstrom frequented the streets.
The Fourth Corporate War made things even worse when it put much of the city into total chaos. But all this changed during the Night City Holocaust of 2023. Although Old Downtown was away from the initial blast that destroyed much of the City & Corporate District, the raging fires created by the nuke quickly expanded over other areas of Night City. Many buildings in Old Downtown were swept by the flames, bringing down everything they touched, and destroying much of the district. Although some services like the City Medical Center survived, Old Downtown would eventually be incorporated into the new Upper Marina.
