New Beach Resort

When Bernice Hardcourt was district manager of Esmeraldas, she vainly hoped that the long stretch of coastline would attract upper-class visitors to the district. New Beach Resort is now a stretch of tiny holiday apartments reclaimed as homes by families too large for them. Cleanup efforts on the beach have stalled out due to lack of money, and the sands are strewn with garbage that floats in on the oily waves. Petty crime, drugs, and prostitution are the only thriving industries on New Beach; many locals own and “rent out” a refurbished Lisa, Kevin, Adonis, or Eve pleasure bioroid. Bodies occasionally wash up on the beach, picked clean of any jewelry or cyberware before the NAPD arrive.
