Hero: Red Back
The place is huge, one of the biggest in America. It's also perhaps the wealthiest, in the higher districts. Unfortunately, this just means more crazy tech for super villains to use.

Hero: Dríada
Hoja city has been considered one of the more successful blends of nature and modern life in Mexico. Part of this has come from the help of Dalia and the company she works for. It’s well known for being the home of Dríada. This has gotten it both positive and negative attention. But besides that it’s actually not that unusual of a city. - Ravenstar

There is nothing overly special about Ravenstar. From a socioeconomic perspective, at least. Ravenstar is one of the oldest colonized cities in North America and home to some of the most brilliant architects in the country. The city is split primarily into two districts: Cliff and Ocean. The city grew out toward the ocean (as dictated by the canyon it started in), so the Ocean District is the newest section. It does not extend very far away from land, but grew along the cliff wall along either side of the opening. The city is very layered, but only below the surface. The main form of transportation is through the "Tubes." The Tubes act much like a subway-automobile highway. The Tubes propel capsules of varying sizes to their manually-assigned destination and therefor have no schedule. Travel by boat is also possible, but is mainly used by tourists, though there are still privately owned, taxi, and shuttle boats.

*~Welcome to Rem City~*
The Brightest City in the World
Hero: Dawnstar
Also known as the City of Lights or "Bridges" by the locals, Rem is popular for its wealth and active night life. Numerous art and tech-based firms and facilities provide business for the creative types and it is the main tourist hub on the east coast second to New York. A prominent feature of the city's layout is that they built up far more than they built out thanks to the bridge system, a feat of architecture allowing for the city to be split into districts by levels, each divided by a Bridge Gate. The closer to the stars, the wealthier.
The Sewers: Is it a myth or a real place? Below Level 0, the only light is what you bring with you...
Level 0: There are some old street-lamps cared for by the residents but most criminals live here. It's not a nice place, filled with low-life, drug dens, and the desperately poor. Most tourists don't know this level even exists.
Level 1: Lower-class residential area. Few businesses other than perhaps a general store or basic supply stop. Some lamps on the streets.
Level 2: Middle-class residential and some somewhat-successful businesses and shops. The city lights start here though tourists are not allowed through the Bridge Gate to this level.
Level 3: The well-to-do residencies are on this level, most are larger apartments. Rem Academy's School of Engineering campus is located on this level. A couple banks and research facilities are located here as well.
Level 4: Specialty shops, pricer living, restaurants, and tourist activity. The level is cleaned regularly and lights are constantly updated. This level has enough room for some parks and green space as well! Roof gardens and window boxes are popular with the advent of genetic advancements in bio-luminescence and modifying common strains of flowers.
Level 5: The wealthy. High-end research facilities. International business headquarters. Parks a-plenty and the stars are almost visible. All plants here have to some degree been modified. The city lights here are brightest, newest, and this is the height of tourist activity.
Level 6: Government offices, apartments for foreign visitors, the extravagantly wealthy residences. This level's Bridge Gate is guarded and requires special clearance. Due to its security, rumors circulate that there are also top-secret research facilities beyond the Bridge Gate.
An city project known as "Skylight District" is a large-scale implementation of new architectural techniques and hover-tech is under way and when completed in a forecasted 15 years from now, will add a new district to Rem City off of Levels 4 and 5 connected by the standard Bridge system. It would be a new residential area and tourist hub focusing on the artistically inclined and opportunities with theaters, guild halls, galleries, and a large property and park area has already been bought by the world's leading genetics facility with the interests of making Skylight world's bio-luminescent spotlight.
