Territory
Five boroughs, one harbor, and a lounge with the Don's name on nothing and his hand on everything. Welcome to Fossil Bay.
Fossil Bay is a fictional city invented for this fan site. It appears on no real map.
The five boroughs
The Old Tar Pits
Where the Don hatched and where the family started: tenements, pawnshops, and the bubbling pits the borough is named for. The family’s heartland. The pits, locals say, remember every footprint.
Bone Harbor
The docks, run by Silas. Neutral ground since ‘41 — every crew’s cargo moves, every crew pays the tariff, nobody fights on the piers. The most profitable peace in the city.
Raptor Street
Two blocks that started it all, plus the fish cannery that pays on time out of respect. Joey Two-Claws’ old running grounds; the Raptor Street Boys now work the door at the Scale.
Museum Mile
Galleries, auction houses, and the fossil trade — the family’s legitimate face. The Don’s private collection is noted; his public generosity is noted more loudly.
Little Cretaceous
Restaurants, tailors, and the social clubs where the old-timers play cards. The Don’s tailor has made every suit since ‘28. The chalk, he says, fears him.
The map
The family’s map of Fossil Bay hangs behind the bar at the Copper Scale, pins and string marking every interest. Visitors are welcome to admire it. Visitors are not welcome to photograph it.
