How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
Charge Island is a small industrial island under the East Borough Bridge, with a water treatment plant, a fuel depot and a baseball field.
The real place
Randalls Island and Wards Island were joined into one island by landfill. The Triborough Bridge passes over it, and it has a large wastewater treatment plant as well as many sports fields. The game keeps the bridge and the treatment plant.
Visiting
Walk or cycle over the footbridge from East 103rd Street in Manhattan. The island has waterfront paths and sports fields.
