Key takeaways

  • Senate & Market is a fast-travel location, not a separate district.
  • It is in The Glen, Heywood, rather than Downtown or Vista del Rey.
  • The most clearly associated business is Time Machine, a music shop that operates as a junk vendor for V.
  • A fixed Carbonweave Silk Corporate Shirt can be found north of the Dataterm, beneath scaffolding near a footbridge.
  • 7th Hell is nearby by road, but belongs to Downtown and should not be counted as part of Senate & Market.
  • The location is useful for shopping, selling junk and beginning a short route towards central City Center, but it has no known dedicated mission hub or boss encounter of its own.

About this guide

Scope: Base game Cyberpunk 2077, including the post-launch 2.0-era world layout where the location remains relevant. Status: Working guide, with a small number of directory gaps noted at the end. “Senate & Market” is not a district or neighbourhood in its own right. It is the name of a fast-travel Dataterm and street junction in The Glen, within Heywood. The guide therefore covers the immediate block and the nearby, directly connected attractions, while separating places in Downtown or other parts of Heywood.

Overview

Senate & Market is one of the more useful fast-travel points in western The Glen, although it is easy to misread its name as referring to a formal market district. In the base game, it primarily functions as a navigation hub: it places V beside a commercial block containing the music and junk shop Time Machine, with road access towards the rest of The Glen, Embers, Downtown and the central Night City road network.

The Dataterm is also a convenient starting point for several nearby activities and points of interest. The most important are Time Machine, the fixed clothing pickup north of the station, and the walk towards 7th Hell, which is associated with Dino Dinovic’s gig “An Inconvenient Killer”. However, 7th Hell is not part of The Glen itself. It lies over the boundary in City Center’s Downtown area, despite Senate & Market being the most practical fast-travel starting point for reaching it.

Night City → Heywood → The Glen → Senate & Market

What Senate & Market actually is

Senate & Market is named after the intersecting roads shown on Night City’s street signage and map system. It is best treated as a micro-location rather than a neighbourhood. The game’s area hierarchy places it in:

The Glen is one of Heywood’s sub-districts. Other Heywood areas, such as Vista del Rey and Wellsprings, are separate and should not be folded into this guide merely because they are nearby on the city map.

The Dataterm sits beside a broad urban road with a mixture of low-rise storefronts, service buildings, elevated structures and pedestrian routes. The surrounding architecture is more commercial and central than the rougher parts of Heywood, but it is not the polished corporate environment of Downtown or Corpo Plaza.

Not included as part of Senate & Market

This distinction matters because guides and player discussions sometimes use the fast-travel point as a general reference for several neighbouring places. Senate & Market is often the best starting point for reaching those places, but that does not change their official district or sub-district.

Fast travel

The Senate & Market Dataterm is listed among the fast-travel points in The Glen. It is available once V has discovered it by approaching the terminal in person. The Glen’s map listing identifies it as “FT 02 Senate & Market”.

After discovery, it provides a useful pivot between:

It is especially convenient for players who are clearing clothing pickups or moving between Heywood and the central business districts.

Walking directions

To Time Machine

Time Machine is immediately associated with the Senate & Market block. Look for the music-store frontage near the Dataterm. The shop is visually presented as a record and instrument business, but its gameplay function is a junk shop. It is owned by Journey Ruiz in the wider setting, and its inventory and interior reflect its music-store identity.

To the Carbonweave Silk Corporate Shirt

The item is a fixed-world pickup rather than a random vendor roll. Several clothing guides place it north of Senate & Market, near a footbridge and scaffolding.

To 7th Hell

To reach 7th Hell from Senate & Market:

7th Hell is not part of The Glen. It is a Downtown venue that can be reached conveniently from Senate & Market. It is used for Dino’s gig “An Inconvenient Killer”, but it is not a normal main-story location.

To the Carbonweave Silk Corporate Shirt: From the Dataterm

  1. 01
    Head north along the main road.
  2. 02
    Continue until you reach the footbridge.
  3. 03
    Move onto the footbridge and take the western route.
  4. 04
    Look beneath nearby scaffolding for a body.
  5. 05
    Loot the body to obtain the Carbonweave Silk Corporate Shirt.

To 7th Hell

  1. 01
    Leave the Dataterm and follow the main road towards the Senate Avenue and Corporation Street intersection.
  2. 02
    Cross the intersection.
  3. 03
    Look for the club entrance set into an alcove on the left-hand side.

Time Machine

Status: Functional junk shop and music-store frontage Sub-district: The Glen Owner: Journey Ruiz, according to setting material Services: Sell and buy junk-shop inventory

Time Machine is the defining business beside Senate & Market. In-world, it is a well-known music store with a reputation for selling records, memorabilia and musical instruments. Its inventory includes music-related objects, and guitars are treated as junk items by the game’s systems rather than as usable weapons or instruments.

The shop is also notable because players have reported finding Johnny Silverhand-related crafting materials or clothing specifications in junk-shop inventories. These reports are useful leads, but the exact stock can vary by version, level and vendor refresh. They should not be treated as a guaranteed Senate & Market reward without checking the current inventory in-game.

Other nearby vendor categories

Game data and vendor references identify several vendor types within The Glen, including a cyberware shop, food shops, a gun shop, a junk shop and an armour or clothing vendor. This confirms that The Glen has a wider service network, but it does not by itself prove that every vendor is located on the Senate & Market block. The only business firmly associated with the Dataterm by the available evidence is Time Machine.

Accordingly, the following should be treated as The Glen services, not confirmed Senate & Market storefronts:

This distinction prevents the whole sub-district from being incorrectly presented as part of the Dataterm’s immediate location.

Carbonweave Silk Corporate Shirt

Type: Fixed clothing pickup Location: North of Senate & Market, near a footbridge and scaffolding Acquisition: Loot the body beneath the scaffolding Randomness: Fixed location, not a random drop

The Carbonweave Silk Corporate Shirt is the most consistently documented item directly associated with Senate & Market. It is a useful stop for players collecting corporate-style clothing or filling out their wardrobe.

The pickup is easy to miss because it is not placed inside a marked shop or quest building. The body is beneath the route rather than on the main pavement, so players travelling quickly along the road may pass it without looking below the footbridge structure.

Vendor inventory

Time Machine’s stock is not a fixed collectible list. It is vendor inventory and may change after the shop refreshes. Treat any particular record, junk item, crafting component or specification as a vendor-stock possibility, not as a permanent chest reward.

The game does not make the music-store objects into a separate instrument-collecting mechanic. The instruments and records are primarily environmental or junk-related content.

An Inconvenient Killer

Mission type: Gig Fixer: Dino Dinovic Primary venue: 7th Hell Nearest practical fast travel: Senate & Market

“An Inconvenient Killer” is the activity most strongly connected with Senate & Market in player navigation guides. The mission itself takes place at 7th Hell, which is across the local boundary in Downtown. Senate & Market is simply a convenient approach point.

The gig’s target and exact encounter structure are mission content rather than a permanent Senate & Market event. Players should follow the gig marker once it is available rather than assuming the club will always contain the same combat or NPC layout before activation.

Practical approach

Because the venue is a mission location rather than a general-purpose hub, its interior may not behave as a fully active public space outside the relevant gig.

Practical approach

  1. 01
    Fast-travel to Senate & Market.
  2. 02
    Save before walking towards 7th Hell if you want to preserve a clean pre-gig state.
  3. 03
    Follow the road to the Senate Avenue and Corporation Street junction.
  4. 04
    Enter the club area through the alcove.
  5. 05
    Follow the objective marker and complete the gig according to the available approach options.
  6. 06
    Leave through the route indicated by the objective or return to the Dataterm.

Main-story relevance

Senate & Market is not documented as a major main-story set piece. It is a traversal and shopping location, unlike Embers, the Afterlife or Arasaka Tower. It may appear in a player’s route between missions, but there is no evidence that the Dataterm itself gates a major main quest.

---

Residents and visitors

No named permanent resident is clearly established at the Dataterm itself. Journey Ruiz is associated with Time Machine, but the shop’s setting information describes him as the owner rather than as a broader local quest-giver.

Named character directory

Kerry Eurodyne is described in setting material as someone who visits Time Machine from time to time, but he should be treated as an associated visitor and music-world connection, not as a resident of Senate & Market.

Factions

There is no clearly documented gang headquarters or permanently controlled faction stronghold at Senate & Market. The area has ordinary Night City street activity and may contain police, civilians and transient hostile encounters depending on the player’s actions and the game’s encounter systems.

Do not confuse this location with markets or compounds that have explicitly documented faction control, such as Valentinos-associated areas elsewhere in Heywood.

Law enforcement

The district is within Night City’s normal urban policing network. NCPD vehicles and officers may appear in the surrounding city environment, but Senate & Market is not identified as a dedicated police station, checkpoint or security facility.

There is no confirmed permanent checkpoint mechanic at the Dataterm. Security encountered during nearby gigs is mission-specific and should not be generalised to the whole area.

This route covers the confirmed local content without incorrectly treating Downtown venues as part of The Glen.

  5. 05
    Search beneath the scaffolding for the Carbonweave Silk Corporate Shirt.
  6. 06
    Return to the road and head towards the Senate Avenue and Corporation Street intersection.
  7. 07

    Continue into Downtown, or return to Senate & Market and fast-travel elsewhere.

Is Senate & Market a district?

No. It is a named fast-travel point and street junction in The Glen, Heywood.

Is Senate & Market in Downtown?

No. Senate & Market is in The Glen. Downtown begins across the nearby boundary, which is why places such as 7th Hell can be reached from the Dataterm without belonging to it.

Is there a market at Senate & Market?

The name does not establish a dedicated market complex. The immediately associated commercial business is Time Machine. Treat “Market” as part of the road-junction name unless a separate storefront is visibly and independently identified.

What is the closest important shop?

Time Machine is the clearest nearby business and functions as a junk shop for V.

Can I get a unique item here?

The confirmed fixed pickup is the Carbonweave Silk Corporate Shirt north of the Dataterm. Vendor items at Time Machine are subject to inventory rules and should not be treated as permanent collectibles.

Does 7th Hell count as part of Senate & Market?

No. It is a nearby Downtown location reached from Senate & Market and used for “An Inconvenient Killer”.

This guide deliberately avoids claiming a complete street-by-street directory for every decorative storefront, food stand, background sign or unnamed building around Senate & Market. The available evidence verifies the Dataterm, The Glen hierarchy, Time Machine, the nearby fixed clothing pickup and the route to 7th Hell, but it does not provide a reliable canonical list of every non-enterable shopfront in the immediate block.

The following points remain insufficiently verified for a fully exhaustive edition:

For that reason, this should be treated as a researched working guide rather than a claim of total completeness.
