Overview

Stockyard is the primary industrial logistics and wholesale trade district of mainland Vice City. Characterized by expansive concrete warehouses, loading docks, freight rail spurs, and wholesale distribution outlets such as Marco Wholesale Footwear, the district handles the heavy commercial storage and distribution needs of the metropolis. Trucks, forklifts, and commercial delivery vans dominate the broad roadways throughout all hours of the day. In gameplay terms, Stockyard offers a vast industrial sandbox filled with cargo ramps, rooftop industrial air units, and wide trucking alleys. The dense maze of parked trailers and warehouse complexes provides abundant physical cover during intense shootouts and vehicular confrontations. In the real world, Stockyard is inspired by the industrial freight and warehouse districts of Allapattah and the logistics corridors flanking the rail lines west of Midtown Miami. Historically centered around wholesale garment trade and produce markets, the area serves as Miami's primary mainland distribution and industrial core.
