>> The office of the Henley Brothers, Supernatural PIs, situated in an old house on a residential, oak-lined road off of Main street. The address and phone number of the place is public knowledge, due to a poster-based advertising campaign launched by the brothers. The house reeks of various defensive wards, to those who can perceive them.

>>  A clinic formerly run by Georges Braque, a moderately public figure of the local Changeling Freehold. It used to be known as a safe haven for new escapees from the hedge, and a reliable medical treatment center for Changelings in general that lacked any court allegiance. The clinic used to be covered by illusions that made it look like a dilapidated, empty building from outside, but a recent arson both destroyed the clinic and exposed its real, ravaged appearance. The doctor himself is currently missing.

>> The Heart of the Summer Court, where meetings are convened at the apex of the daily heat by the King of Endless Summer. Located in a hidden Hollow in the abandoned Freedom Tower at 700 Biscayne Boulevard. To quote the core book: "This 255-foot skyscraper was used as a processing center to document and provide medical and dental care to Cuban refugees in the 1960s and ’70s. The building was sold off in 1974, after the first major wave of immigration, but the hope and joy of all those people for whom the tower was the first taste of a life of freedom left an indelible imprint on the building. When it was eventually abandoned, the building became a haven for squatters and the homeless — still a place of refuge, albeit in a different way. Homeless children refer to it as “the big pink haunted house,” perhaps a reference to its mystical activity."

>> Rose Tailor's bookstore, "the Home of the Tome." A perfectly mundane bookstore staffed solely by a perfectly mundane (?) woman, who has the startling ability of being able to guess exactly what you'll want to read next faster than you can decide what it even is. Located in a rather shitty part of the city, it looks shabby on the outside - but the inside of the store is well-kept, though very cramped and a tad stuffy. She keeps it dim inside so that you have to keep near strategically-placed lamps to be able to read anything.

>> The Museum of Contemporary Art, better known as MOCA, in North Miami, calls itself “the museum where new art is discovered.” It is currently closed for repairs, after an ill-conceived ice sculpture exhibition was mysteriously destroyed overnight about a month ago, tragically the very day before the exhibit opened to the public. The majority of the Museum wasn't damaged in the incident, but the curator viewed it as an excellent opportunity to make some much-needed fixes.
