Liberty City (GTA IV era)
From WikiGTA - The Complete Grand Theft Auto Walkthrough
Liberty City, officially City of Liberty, is a North American city in Liberty State, based on New York City, and is the setting of GTA IV. Liberty City already featured as setting for previous GTA's, but the city has been completely redesigned for GTA IV. GTA IV is the first GTA to depict Liberty City as a city with a high number of buildings that strongly resemble their real counterpart in New York. Examples include the Chrysler Building, the Empire State Building and the Statue of Liberty (which is parodied as the Statue of Happiness).
The city is the largest city of GTA thus far. The city is not as big as the state San Andreas in GTA San Andreas, but this is compensated by the fact Liberty City does not have large empty areas such as deserts. It is not possible to enter all buildings, but several skyscrapers will be accessible so you can enter the roof.
Liberty City has an airport, although you can only fly helicopters and not fly airplanes in GTA IV. This airport is called Francis International Airport, as it was in GTA III. Furthermore, the well-known elevated subway, the Tw@ internet cafe, a highway with working toll booths, several bridges, a ferry and cable tram will be present.
Boroughs
Liberty City consists of four of the five boroughs of New York: Algonquin (Manhattan); Bohan (the Bronx); Broker (Brooklyn) and Dukes (Queens). Additionally, a part of New Jersey will be present in Liberty City with the name Alderney. Each borough has its own island, except Broker and Dukes, which share one island.
