**Greenpoint Books & Curious**, formerly known as **Greenpoint Antiquities**, is the home of the Fray-Garroway household, consisting of Jocelyn Fray, Luke Garroway, and Clary Fairchild, as well as the base of operations for Simon Lewis' deck.

## Summary

The place was originally built by a magician with a warlock mother as a sanctuary for those who seek shelter from the shadowhunters' government. At some point, Jocelyn Fray bought it and opened an antique store there after she and her daughter Clary ran away from Idris when her ex-husband Valentine was captured by the Clave.

In 20XX, when Clary and her friend Simon went abroad for a scholarship in Scotland, Jocelyn and her friend and former shadowhunter, Luke Garroway started dating and eventually married five years after. They then expanded the store from just an antique store to an art gallery/book and antique store.

Several years later, when Elaine Lewis died in a car crash, Jocelyn took in Simon Lewis and George Lovelace to live with them. Simon then used his magic to create a hundred-layered ward around the house, preventing all those with nefarious intention to even remember the house, much less infiltrate it.

Two years later, upon the revelation of Simon, Clary, and George's involvement in the supernatural world, the house underwent additional renovation, almost to the point of a complete rebuilding, by courtesy of the seraph Raziel.

## Appearance

Greenpoint Books & Curious is a large two-story building with a rooftop located at Greenpoint, Brooklyn, New York City. After being magically modified by Simon, its true size expanded and became a four-story house with two basements inside.

* **First Floor**: Consisting of the book and antique store, and Jocelyn's art gallery.
* **Second Floor**: Includes the main living area - Living room, kitchen and dining room, first bathroom and three guest rooms. Jocelyn's painting room is also located here and is connected to a balcony.
* **Third Floor**: Includes Alec's room, George's room, Jace's room, Simon's room, Isabelle's room, and Maia's room. It also includes a bathroom, two storerooms, and the "special room".
* **Fourth Floor**: Includes Jocelyn and Luke's master bedroom with a private bathroom, Clary's room, and Luke's private study.
* **Rooftop**: The rooftop is a communal garden decorated with flower plots and is where Simon's special herbs are planted. There is also a table and chairs to drink tea at. Green ivy falls from the railings down to the store's signs and covers the two additional floors with illusion magic.
* **First Basement**: Includes the training area, changing rooms, weaponry and infirmary. A heated indoor pool is also located on the first basement floor, which has healing and rejuvenation properties.
* **Second Basement**: Includes Simon's workshop, a library and a storeroom filled with sealed artifacts. Special weapons, items, and potions are stored here in a secret vault behind a portrait of Raziel rising out of Lake Lyn.

## Known Places

### Training Area

Located on the first basement is the training area, where the house's residents often use to refine and hone their battle skills. According to Jace, it is roughly three times the size of the training area that the New York Institute has. Copies of monsters, daemon, and warriors are generated from hard light through Summoning Magic and are used as practice opponents during training. There is also a small gym attached to the side with typical workout equipment such as a treadmill, rowing machines, cross trainers, dumbbells, etc.

### Indool Pool

There is an indoor pool located on the first basement and located right between the changing rooms and the training area. It is self-heated, with statues of angels pouring out hot water from vases of gold and ivory, and the water is charmed to smell like whatever the user likes the most. The water is blessed and purified with angelic magic and thus have magical properties of its own right, such as rejuvenate others, cure non-fatal wounds or breake minor curses.

### Simon's Workshop

Simon's workshop is located on the second basement and is locked behind three thick doors made out of pure adamas and engraved with angelic runes for protection. It has a large brewing station with five cupboards of potion ingredients and in the middle of the room is a large magic circle drawn with Simon's angelic power. Clary occasionally comes down here to help him with his potions when needed.

### "Special Room"

The "special room" located on the third floor is one of the interdimensional love rooms created by Heaven to permit reincarnated angels to have sex without the risk of becoming fallen angels. Spirits are sent down from Heaven to clean the room and refill/replace everything inside after every usage.

The room consists of a king-size bed with velvet blanket, a closet filled with sex toys, and a bedside table filled with lubes, condoms, and instantly affective contraceptives inside. A large bookcase is located next to the door and has "a collection of porn so dirty that it makes the Devil blushes." There is a bathroom connected to it and the door is automatically locked from within whenever someone tries to unlock it while there's people inside.

According to Simon, this room wasn't in his original plans, but was added in because of Raziel's insistence. By far, the only real users of this room are Jocelyn and Luke, as most people only go inside this room to use the additional bathroom inside.

## Protection

Shortly after he and George moved in, he placed the entire building under a hundred-layered of protection wards known as the **Malchus Emanation** (天国の百の保護マルクス・エマネーション, *Marukusu Emanēshon*), which were formed of a hundred different runes of both demonic and angelic origins he found and learned from the records within the Vatican's archives.

While its full powers remain a mystery as the runes were originally created to transform themselves to suit the current situation the most, two of its main powers have been revealed. Its first power is to cloak and hide the building and its location from the mind of anyone with nefarious intentions toward one of the building's residents, making it nearly impossible to track or even remember its location, even if said nefarious person was literally thrown out of the hours mere seconds before. Its second power is to act as a repellent toward monsters and daemon in the area, which was the true cause behind the mysterious "Brooklyn exodus", as dubbed by the local monsters.

According to Magnus, this is an extremely impressive, if not outright straight out of a fantasy novel, as these runes much be individually engraved into the building foundation by hand using the caster's blood every full moon for at least twelve continuous moon cycles, which a regular magician would need decades, if not centuries to create.

## Trivia

* The protection wards are strong enough to withstand several hydrogen bombs.
* According to Simon, he directly redirected the magical energy of the leylines beneath New York city into the house so they don't have to pay additional electricity bills and gains better wifi signals.
