This is a simple side shop that sits at the corner of a busy Hell's Kitchen street. Its one of the more popular stores in the district so there's often a busy amount of customers inside of it.
The Lamplighter Lounge used to be a swanky bar way back in the day, but prohibition and then the continual deterioration of Hell's Kitchen has turned it into a ghost of it's former self. There are two entrances to the lounge, one an archway to the hotel lobby and another that leads directly to the street outside
The Dominion Hotel, also called the Old Dominion, has been around since before prohibition when NYC Statutes mandated that new bars were only legal to be operated out of hotels. Back then The Dominion was posh and swanky but like the rest of Hell's Kitchen it has deteriorated. Today it is more skid-row housing than actual hotel, offering cheap single rooms (each with a small bathroom) as an economical alternative to an actual apartment.

The main room of this old house is as decayed as the rest of the building. Some of the floor boards are broken under heavier foodsteps, giving random glimpses of the damp and dark underside of the house. For the most part, the room itself is intact, though littered with old funiture. The dust and grime is disturbed randomly, to suggest there may be someone squatting here every once in a while. The couch has springs that threaten to erupt if sat on wrong, a single chair in about the same condition across from a three-legged coffee table that balaces precariously.
The lobby of the Coonoo Apartment Complex gives off a rather ordinary appearance. Its a small room with a lot counter partitioning it in two.
This counter is crafted of both metal and wood, though there is nothing wealthy about the look. The floors are covered in a short-threaded carpet that has worn marks from the passage of many feet. There are no chairs here, or any other places to sit.
On the north side of the lobby is a mechanical elevator with a metal gate that can be lifted and pulled down when the old-school style elevator is in use.
The lawfirm of 'Nelson and Murdock' is essentially a large rectangular space with four rooms. One steps through the front door and finds themselves in the receptionist area that has a desk against the far wall under the room's windows that allow daylight to shine in through their glass panes.
To the north of the room is the door marked 'Murdock' on the fogged-out glass window. Murdock's office is very spartan and extremely well organized. The desk sits in the center with two chairs for guests on the front and one behind it for the owner.
Just beside Murdock's office is an open doorway that leads into a fully stocked kitchen with a sink, fridge and several shelfs loaded with coffee mugs and some various foods kept on-stock for the staff and their guests.
Two similar offices rest on the southern side of the receptionist area. One is marked 'Nelson' and the other is 'Conference Room'.
Overall the lawfirm isn't the most prestigious that one could find in New York City, but its kept as nice as the owners can possibly make it and there seems to be an air of positivity about the lawfirm.
This is a dark alley, not the type of place you should wander without a good reason. Piles of trash clutter the area, and a genuinely foul stench permeates the air around a heaped up dumpster.
A vented sewer grate emits a thick, putrid steam from the depths. Small rodents scurry from shadow to shadow, making noise as they scavenge. It is impossible to see how far the alleyway extends, and only the very brave, the very fearsome, or the very foolhardy would venture further to find out…
