How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
An Art Deco hotel with a neon sign reading Boardwalk, seen on Vice City's beachfront strip in the first trailer.
The real place
The Breakwater is a 1939 Art Deco hotel by Anton Skislewicz, known for its tall neon fin sign. Axios and Miami New Times both identify it as the model for the game's Hotel Boardwalk.
Visiting
It is a working hotel, so it is easiest to photograph from the Lummus Park side of Ocean Drive at night, when the sign is lit.
