Key takeaways
- Charter Hill is a sub-district, not the whole of Westbrook Westbrook also contains Japantown and North Oak, which should not be folded into a Charter Hill guide.
- Its main identity is an affluent residential and corporate district rebuilt during Night City’s Reconstruction period. Middle-ranking corpos, aspiring professionals, artists and wealthy freelancers are its characteristic residents.
- The district has three base-game gigs Tyger and Vulture, Until Death Do Us Part and Family Heirloom. The first two are Wakako Okada gigs, while Family Heirloom is associated with Rogue Amendiares.
- Nina Kraviz’s clinic is Charter Hill’s named ripperdoc, while the district also has the Avante clothing shop in Lele Park. There is no listed weapon vendor in the district.
- The district’s most important story location is the Peralezes’ apartment, tied to the side job I Fought the Law and its political investigation.
- Charter Hill is best explored by combining the Charter Hill metro station, Lele Park, Gold Niwaki Plaza, the Dynalar area and the apartment complexes, then clearing the gigs and scanner activities that appear nearby.
About this guide
Scope: Cyberpunk 2077 base game, set in Night City in 2077. Phantom Liberty and tabletop material are excluded except where clearly marked as separate continuity or background context. Status: researched guide. The available evidence identifies the principal named locations, vendors, fast-travel points and missions in Charter Hill, but does not provide a reliable canonical street-by-street boundary map. Where the game’s map label and district listings are clear, they are treated as the working boundary.
Overview
Charter Hill is a wealthy sub-district of Westbrook, on the eastern side of Night City. It is the polished, corporate-residential face of the district: high-rise apartments, landscaped plazas, private clinics, designer shops and discreet security sit close to areas controlled by the Tyger Claws. It is safer and cleaner than much of Night City, but not peaceful. Beneath the carefully maintained surfaces are gang operations, surveillance, political corruption and several of the city’s more revealing investigations.
The neighbourhood is easy to overlook because it has fewer major story missions than Japantown, yet it is important to several recurring characters and contains a useful concentration of services, gigs and side-job locations.
Overview and boundaries
Charter Hill belongs to Westbrook, one of Night City’s major districts. In the 2077 game’s district hierarchy, Westbrook is divided into:
North Oak and Japantown are neighbouring Westbrook sub-districts, not parts of Charter Hill. This distinction matters for gigs, vendors, fast-travel points and fixer assignments.
The district is described as a relatively new and well-maintained corporate neighbourhood built during the Reconstruction period. It became popular with Night City’s upper and professional classes before North Oak became the city’s preferred ultra-luxury address. The typical Charter Hill resident is not necessarily a top executive. Many are middle-ranking corpos who work in Westbrook or City Center, along with ambitious entrepreneurs, artists, musicians and freelancers who can afford to avoid the cheaper and more crowded parts of the city.
Working boundary
The game does not present a detailed official boundary description in the accessible sources. The reliable practical boundary is the area marked Charter Hill on the in-game map, together with the named locations and fast-travel points assigned to it. Do not extend the area north-west into Japantown or north-east into North Oak simply because the architecture and road network continue without a hard visual divide.
For navigation purposes, the district can be treated as several connected clusters:
This is a practical exploration division rather than a separately documented canonical hierarchy.

Overview and boundaries
Working boundary
- 01Lele Park and the central retail area
- 02Gold Niwaki Plaza and the apartment towers
- 03Dynalar and the corporate-industrial frontage
- 04The Red Queen’s Race and associated mission spaces
- 05Peripheral roads, metro access and residential complexes
Character and atmosphere
Charter Hill’s visual language is deliberately controlled. Streets are cleaner, buildings are better maintained and the area has more landscaped public space than most of Night City. The district’s wealth is expressed through architecture rather than open luxury: towers, enclosed lobbies, private security and carefully branded retail spaces.
That polish should not be mistaken for safety. The Tyger Claws are one of the notable gangs associated with Westbrook and operate businesses across the district. 6th Street and Scavenger activity are also recorded among Charter Hill’s notable gang presence.
The district works particularly well as a contrast with Japantown:
Charter Hill’s residents are therefore part of the same social ladder as North Oak’s elite, but have not reached the top.

The following names are the principal Charter Hill locations identified by the location directory and map sources. Some are enterable, some are mission locations and some function primarily as landmarks or map labels. A business name alone does not establish that the player can use it as a vendor or service.
District-wide and public locations
The fast-travel listings identify Dynalar, Longshore South, Luxury Apartments, Lele Park, Metro: Charter Hill and Gold Niwaki Plaza as Charter Hill dataterms.
District-wide and public locations
Buildings and residential locations
The district location directory lists these sites alongside the public areas and businesses below.
Shops and named businesses
Avante is the functional clothing shop in Lele Park. Its employee is listed as the Charter Hill clothing vendor, and the shop is described as a neokitsch store on Lele Road.
Kraviz’s Clinic is Nina Kraviz’s ripperdoc clinic. Ripperdocs provide cyberware installation and related upgrades, subject to the game’s normal level, street-cred and inventory conditions. Nina Kraviz is specifically listed as the Charter Hill ripperdoc.
The remaining names should be treated carefully. The available location directory identifies them as Charter Hill places, but does not establish each one as a player-facing shop, purchasable property or full-service vendor. In particular, do not assume that a decorative market or restaurant name provides food, shopping or a separate interaction menu.
---
Metro
The most direct public-transport entry is Metro: Charter Hill, also listed as Charter Hill Station. The station provides a convenient approach to the central neighbourhood and is especially useful after fast travel has been unlocked. Charter Hill is also connected to the wider NCART network, which includes a Charter Hill station in the 2077 system.
Fast travel
These points divide the district into useful travel sectors. Lele Park is the best starting point for the clothing shop and retail exploration. Luxury Apartments and Gold Niwaki Plaza are useful for residential and corporate visits. Dynalar and Longshore South are practical approaches to the district’s outer roads and industrial-facing buildings.
The district’s named dataterms are
Suggested exploration route
Some interiors are mission-gated or only meaningfully accessible during a side job or gig. A locked door is not evidence that the building has no content.
---
For a first visit, use this route
- 01Start at Metro: Charter Hill.
- 02Move through the central streets towards Gold Niwaki Plaza.
- 03Continue to Lele Park and visit Avante.
- 04Travel towards Kraviz’s Clinic and check Nina Kraviz’s available cyberware.
- 05Sweep the roads around the apartment towers, including Acorn Towers, Gutierrezes’ Apartment and Peralezes’ Apartment where your current missions permit entry.
- 06Continue towards the Dynalar and Kiroshi Campus area.
- 07Leave the Red Queen’s Race for when its associated mission is active, unless you are deliberately investigating the location for environmental details.
- 08Return to the district map and clear remaining gigs, NCPD activities and undiscovered dataterms.
Nina Kraviz and Kraviz’s Clinic
Nina Kraviz is Charter Hill’s named ripperdoc. Her clinic is one of the district’s most useful functional locations because it provides access to cyberware rather than merely serving as environmental decoration. The general vendor directory lists her among the game’s ripperdocs, while the Charter Hill map guide identifies Kraviz’s Clinic as the local cyberware location.
Cyberware availability is not a permanently fixed list in the broad sense. It can depend on the game version, character progression and the vendor’s current stock. Treat individual item lists from older guides as version-sensitive rather than universal.
Avante
Avante is the district’s functional clothing shop, located in Lele Park. The vendor is identified as a female employee of the neokitsch store, and the shop carries clothing rather than weapons or cyberware.
The store is especially appropriate for players building:
The clothing catalogue can vary by game version and progression. The store directory confirms that the shop has separate head, face, outer-torso, inner-torso, legs and feet categories, but a historical catalogue should not be treated as a guaranteed modern inventory.
Weapon vendors
The available vendor directory lists no weapon vendor in Charter Hill. If you need firearms, ammunition or weapon crafting stock, plan to visit another district rather than searching the decorative businesses around Lele Park.

Services directory
| Name | Details |
|---|---|
| Avante | functional clothing vendor |
| Kraviz’s Clinic | functional ripperdoc |
| Au Cabanon | named location, service status not established by the available evidence |
| Ginger Panda | named location, service status not established by the available evidence |
| Nagami Market | named location, service status not established by the available evidence |
| Kiroshi Campus | named site, not a general-purpose Kiroshi equipment vendor in the evidence reviewed |
| Dynalar Complex | named corporate location, not a confirmed general-purpose vendor |
Gigs
Charter Hill has three base-game gigs in the Westbrook gig list:
The Westbrook gig list explicitly places all three in Charter Hill. It also notes that Westbrook gigs are generally given by Wakako Okada, except Family Heirloom, which is associated with Rogue.
Tyger and Vulture
This is a theft operation in Charter Hill involving Vortex’s credchip. The important practical lesson is to approach it as an infiltration job rather than assuming that the shortest route through the target building is the best one. Check cameras, security positions, access points and optional terminals before taking the objective.
The gig is also a useful example of Charter Hill’s social contradiction: the district’s wealthy public image coexists with gang-controlled commercial and private spaces.
Until Death Do Us Part
This gig centres on stealing a shard connected with Emilio Gutierrez’s depository receipts. It is another Charter Hill infiltration task, with the usual Cyberpunk 2077 possibilities of stealth, hacking, combat or a mixed approach.
Before beginning, make a manual save if you care about optional stealth outcomes. The evidence reviewed confirms the objective and district placement, but does not establish a single mandatory route or universal reward structure that should be presented as fixed.
Family Heirloom
Family Heirloom is a Charter Hill search-and-recovery gig associated with Rogue rather than the normal Westbrook fixer chain. It is therefore easy to overlook if you only follow Wakako’s jobs.
The gig is particularly relevant to players clearing the district late, since its listed tier is higher than the other two Charter Hill entries. The available gig listing confirms its Charter Hill placement and type, but not every possible loot result or build-specific reward.
Gigs
| Gig | Type | Objective | Fixer or associated giver |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tyger and Vulture | Thievery | Steal Vortex’s credchip | Wakako Okada |
| Until Death Do Us Part | Thievery | Steal the shard containing Emilio Gutierrez’s depository receipts | Wakako Okada |
| Family Heirloom | Search and Recover | Recover the mission target | Rogue Amendiares |
I Fought the Law
The Peralezes’ apartment is one of Charter Hill’s most important story locations. It is tied to I Fought the Law, the side job involving Elizabeth and Jefferson Peralez, the death of Mayor Rhyne and the political investigation surrounding the city’s leadership.
The location and its surrounding investigation are therefore more than a standard apartment visit. They expose how corporate influence, policing, political succession and neurological manipulation overlap in Night City.
Spoiler warning
Major side-job spoilers: the Peralez investigation has consequences beyond the initial visit. If you want to experience it without foreknowledge, start I Fought the Law before reading detailed guides about the Red Queen’s Race, the braindance evidence or the later Peralez follow-up.
Red Queen’s Race
The Red Queen’s Race is a named Charter Hill location associated with the Peralez investigation. It is also connected with gang activity and mission-only access. A separate location entry identifies an Animals Brutalizer at the site, while I Fought the Law identifies the location as part of the evidence trail surrounding the mayoral case.
Do not treat it as an ordinary public nightclub that can necessarily be explored in full at any time. Its most significant content is tied to the relevant mission sequence.
Gig and mission directory
The available map guide confirms the three Charter Hill gigs and indicates NCPD Scanner Hustle activity in the sub-district, but the accessible evidence does not expose a complete reliable named list of every scanner event.

Gig and mission directory
Residents and story-associated characters
The district’s most important named residents and visitors include:
These categories should not be confused. Nina Kraviz is a resident or business operator encountered through a permanent service location. Elizabeth and Jefferson Peralez are story-associated residents of a specific apartment. River Ward is a visiting investigator rather than a normal Charter Hill resident. Rogue and Wakako are fixers associated with missions across Night City rather than local inhabitants.
Residents and story-associated characters
Ordinary NPCs
The district’s ordinary population is primarily composed of:
This social profile is part of Charter Hill’s canonical description and explains the district’s combination of corporate clothing, polished public spaces and apartment-heavy architecture.
Factions
The gang listing should not be read as proof that every faction maintains a permanent open-world headquarters in Charter Hill. It establishes association with the district, not an exhaustive patrol map.
---
Charter Hill’s principal hazards are less about constant street warfare and more about controlled private spaces.
Useful habits
---
Charter Hill contains ordinary loot, mission loot, shards, containers and random enemy drops, but the accessible evidence reviewed does not provide a verified complete named catalogue of every item or collectible in the sub-district.
The safe method for completionists is to combine a map-based scanner sweep with every gig and side job. Do not assume that an item seen during a mission remains obtainable after the mission, and do not assume that every container in a corporate interior is permanently accessible.
---
Charter Hill’s history reflects the changing shape of Night City. It was rebuilt during the Reconstruction period and became a desirable neighbourhood for the rising professional class. Its social position is transitional: richer and more comfortable than many central districts, but less prestigious than North Oak.
The name also has a longer history in the Cyberpunk setting. Earlier Night City material used different district structures and maps, so locations from Cyberpunk 2020, Cyberpunk RED and Cyberpunk 2077 should not be treated as though their boundaries and layouts are identical. One historical Night City listing places Charter Hill in older city classifications under different area groupings, while the 2077 game clearly treats it as a Westbrook sub-district.
The tabletop Night City Atlas is a separate continuity and source type. Its Charter Hill material should be used for setting inspiration, not as evidence that a location, business or NPC exists in the base game. The Atlas describes Charter Hill as an especially secure district and supplies additional tabletop locations, but those names are not automatically game locations.

Factions
| Name | Details |
|---|---|
| Tyger Claws | the most important gang presence in Westbrook and a recurring force in Charter Hill activities. |
| 6th Street | listed among the gangs associated with the sub-district. |
| Scavengers | also listed as a notable presence. |
| NCPD | present through policing, scanner activities and the River Ward investigation. |
| Corporate security | important around private buildings and mission locations, though individual security contractors vary by encounter. |
Useful habits
- 01Save before entering mission buildings. Several Charter Hill interiors are designed around alternate approaches.
- 02Scan every entrance. Corporate buildings often provide doors, shutters, ladders, cameras and hackable devices that are easy to miss.
- 03Check the map after completing each gig. The district’s activities are spread between apartment towers, plazas and peripheral roads.
- 04Visit Nina Kraviz when returning from a mission. Cyberware stock and affordability can improve as V progresses.
- 05Do not confuse scenery with services. A sign, market or restaurant name is not automatically an active vendor.
- 06Complete I Fought the Law before reading spoilers. Its Charter Hill locations make more sense when followed as an investigation rather than visited randomly.
- 07Use a manual save before major Peralez conversations. This is advisable for players who want to compare dialogue outcomes without replaying a large section.
Useful habits: The following distinctions are important
| Category | Charter Hill status |
|---|---|
| Mission shards | Confirmed in gigs such as Until Death Do Us Part |
| Gig targets | Confirmed, including Vortex’s credchip and Emilio Gutierrez’s receipts shard |
| Vendor inventory | Confirmed for Avante and Kraviz’s Clinic, but progression and version-sensitive |
| Random enemy loot | Variable, not a fixed directory |
| Environmental shards | Present in the wider district, but no complete independently verified list was available |
| Iconic rewards | Not claimed here without a source confirming the exact placement and acquisition condition |
| NCPD loot | Activity-dependent and not presented as a complete named inventory |
