From the tragedy of Law Island, where a plague out break once killed a million immigrants awaiting transfers to the mainland, to the ethnic charm of Island Heights, to the galleries and sky scrapers of downtown Island City, there is so much to see and do. Whether you have lived in Liberty all your life, or are visiting for the first time, there is always something new to see. Founded on land bought from Native Americans for just $37, a barrel of mead and a sack of feathers by Belgian settlers in 1603, the ancient 5 boroughs of Liberty Island (incorporating Nixon Island and Law Island), The Brix, Estoria, Kings and Brocklyn have effectively been joined in the metropolitan area by urban areas from the neighboring state of New Guernsey. From the glamor of Island City to the down at heel bums of The Brix, this is truly the city that sleeps with one eye open. Glamorous and cynical, hard-edged and soft-livered, beautiful and damned, it is a city living on the edge. 'The so-called 'gateway to freedom', where millions of Europeans first entered the USA, is everything you imagined it could be and more.
