Character[2]Edit[]
Middle Park East shares the same characteristics with its neighbouring districts, Lancaster and Hatton Gardens. Middle Park East contains a variety of several high-rise apartments and commercial buildings, including one of Niko's safehouses. It is assumed that many businessmen in Algonquin reside here, since the area is filled with businessmen walking around. Unlike Middle Park West, these two neighbourhoods have opposite personalities. Middle Park West and its surrounding area are centered on the arts and culture, whereas Middle Park East and its neighbours are more focused on business and commerce.
