For the sake of convenience, the full map is one generated by Google Maps and modified to display some of the important locations in the game.

The barrier around the portion of the city that the characters have access to is marked in red.

The black squares on the map are subway stations. These did not historically exist during this era in Seattle, and by all rights they shouldn't exist now.

The bright purple square in downtown Seattle is the Space Needle; in this universe, it's completely covered in a dense shroud of spiderwebs.

The magenta square in Lawton Park is an apartment complex we call the Teratoma.

Map and Full Area Description

Magnolia is a residential neighborhood with a few small shopping centers and one large public park, and is the northwestern-most accessible region of the city. It consists of the following areas:

Briarcliff - This area is just south of Discovery Park, and is almost completely residential, aside from a gas station, a bar, a pizzeria, a hardware store, a convenience store, a church, a preschool, and a formerly elegant public library. The houses were once luxurious, but are now showing signs of succumbing to the elements. Here and there, the downtown skyline is visible to the south.

Lawton Park - This area is more built up, with shops, schools, and midrise apartment buildings in addition to houses. It also has one building that has been affected by unnatural forces: the Teratoma.

Southeast Magnolia - This area has not been explored yet, but it resembles Lawton Park more than Briarcliff, with more modest houses and apartment buildings, another school, and a number of stores, restaurants, and bars - and, right on its border with Lawton Park, a subway station.

Discovery Park is presently unexplored, so a detailed description of it is not available. It is a large, heavily overgrown public park to the north of Briarcliff, but some of its trails are still passable, and it might be possible to forage there for edible plants or trap some of what little native wildlife remains within city limits. It is also the site of the abandoned Fort Lawton Army Base.

Map and Full Area Description
This area is presently unexplored, so a detailed description of it is not available.

The Interbay, to the west of Magnolia, is mostly taken up by a large railyard and a seaport; it also contains a few shops and restaurants, and several self-storage facilities. On the canal (north) side, it also has a number of public boat docks, though no boats remain in usable condition. On its western border are a golf course, an animal shelter, and a veterinary hospital.
