+=== Adelaide ===
+Named after the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adelaide city Adelaide on the Australian continent on Earth], the city centre is a of a planned design surrounded by a green belt of parklands, mimicking its Earth counterpart.  Several streets of both cities also share the same name.
+'''Rundle Street''' is the main linear entertainment district in the city center.  It is a wide, luxuriously paved walkway that is 2.5 kilometres long, with tracks for a hover light rail system that runs down the middle of the "street".  On each side of the walkway are door to door entertainment establishments, including bars, restaurants, nightclubs, karaoke venues and tattoo parlors (with questionable hygiene practices)<ref name="shoreleavetraditions2" /><ref name="naughtyteller">[https://wiki.starbase118.net/wiki/index.php?title=Geoffrey_Teller#Medical_History "Geoffrey Teller - Medical Record"]</ref>.  The eastern end of Rundle street is considered to be upmarket, while the western end is known for having a "seedier" reputation.  Just before sunset the street becomes busy with many people making their way to the area, making the street noisy from people's chatter.  <ref name="shoreleavetraditions">[https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sb118-veritas/usJgNwIaBHg/tkZ923ySAwAJ "Shore leave Traditions -  Part 1"].

+==== Known Rundle Street Venues ====
+* '''Ancient Earth European Cowboy Beer Bar''': An establishment that looks out of place in the rest of the upmarket locales in the East End.  One of the interior walls is covered in fake wood - and hanging from it are many different types of analogue clocks.  One of the other walls has flags of the old countries of Europe painted on it. From the same wall hangs lots of cowboy hats.  Bar staff wear English police “bobby” hats, checkered shirts and vests. In the middle of the otherwise open front of the establishment is a set of saloon doors made out of fake wood, for no particular reason.  Behind the bar is a small replica of the Eiffel tower.  Their "specialty" is to serve European beer boiling.
+* '''Lusty Andorian Maid''': A venue that has a number of brightly lit holosigns advertising diversions and potables from across the quadrant.  It is known for its loud music.
+* '''Rocksoff''': Holosuite located in the west end, manned by a large well-dressed Orion male at it's front who acts as both spruiker and security. "Best holosuite in the city!  Any pleasure or delight you like."
+=== Traditions ===
+If patrons in a venue get into a fight and are ejected by security, it's local unwritten tradition that they all go to the next bar for a round of drinks.<ref name="shoreleavetraditions2" />
