How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
Castle Gardens is a park and pier area at the southern tip of Algonquin, with a helicopter tour pad and a construction site used in a mission.
The real place
The Battery is the park at the tip of Lower Manhattan. Castle Garden was the name of its fort, Castle Clinton, when it served as an immigration station, and the game takes its name from that. The pier and heliport are also based on nearby Lower Manhattan sites.
Visiting
Castle Clinton is the ticket office for the Statue of Liberty ferries. Arrive early in summer, because the queues build quickly.
