Background / History

Once the main headquarters of the Boston Bugle newspaper company before the Great War.

Layout

• The elevator takes you to an upper floor with a ruined office guarded by a hostile Protectron.
• A collapsed floor and a stairwell provide access to a middle floor below, where a steamer trunk is located.
• Both upper and middle floors feature Novice-locked Boston Bugle article terminals containing pre-War news.
• A wooden door on the upper floor leads to a ruined exterior office with a vantage point for MILA and a Novice-locked floor safe.

Notable Loot

• Vault-Tec lunchbox: Found on the upper floor in a blue crate.

Notes

• Terminals reference Fallout 3’s Raven Rock and Fallout 2’s Control Station Enclave.
• An article in the terminals mentions Boston’s baseball team’s lack of World Series wins since 1918 and predicts a game on October 23, 2077.

Bugs

• On PC and Xbox One, the door to the building may malfunction, not allowing entry. Leaving the area and returning can resolve the issue.
