The Streets
Officially named the San Miguel Residential Subdistrict, the neighborhood called “the Streets” earned its nickname from the checkered grid of crisscrossing, numbered roads. The neighborhood runs from 1st to 327th south to north, and from White Star Arcology to Mompiche Beach east to west. Most of the Streets is zoned residential, with blocs of row houses and condo-habs mixed with numerous street-level business. Most of the buildings are roughly the same height, and a low, well-established plaza level keeps their bottom five to ten stories segregated from the rest of the neighborhood. This is the neighborhood most people think of when they think of Esmeraldas, and it’s the kind of place where neighbors rely more on each other than on the NAPD and camdrones. Even the local gangs maintain a sort of civic pride; any streetbanger who robs from their neighborhood ends up facing justice from their former comrades.
