Upper Boardwalk

The Upper Boardwalk is a section of Battleship Bay in Columbia.

History
The Upper Boardwalk was the main walkway leading to the beaches of Battleship Bay which was entered from the Arcade. To reach the shore, the citizens had to walk through the strategically placed Battleship Bay Gift Shop, which likely caused some unplanned purchases. The Upper boardwalk had a great view of the lower beach, as well as Monument Tower and also contained several shops, food carts and stalls.

BioShock Infinite
After getting the dancing Elizabeth's attention at the beach, Booker DeWitt and Elizabeth leaves to find The First Lady airship in order to get to Paris (as far as Elizabeth knows). They enter and exit the Battleship Bay Gift Shop and arrive at the Upper Boardwalk via stairs. Elizabeth directly notes the lady and gentleman standing at the end of the stalls, presenting her with a bird and a cage cameo. It is up to the player to picks which one Elizabeth wears. After making the choice, the lady and gentleman walks away and the air will fill with the screams of citizens. Wind has blown the clouds covering Monument Tower away, revealing the destroyed state of the tower, shocking the citizen. After briefly observing the tower, Booker and Elizabeth leaves to avoid drawing attention to themselves and enters the Arcade.

The Boardwalk
The player enters from the Battleship Bay Gift Shop and reaches a set of stalls at the Upper Boardwalk. The stalls consists of a Columbia Chronicles stall, a photography stall and a Lil Miss Columbia stall, the rest are closed. There is also a Cotton Candy stall at the far end. The boardwalk is filled with food carts and three closed curio shops are lined by the wall to the left, with the entrance to the Arcade in between them. The boardwalk has several benches set by the fence to the lower beach for viewing comfort. The citizens present all are reacting to the destroyed Monument Tower.
