Market Street



Market Street is the first area of the first level in BioShock Infinite's downloadable content, Burial at Sea - Episode 1. The place consists of a strip of shops and various businesses, with the street over-looking other buildings in Rapture.

History
Before the Civil War, Market Street served as both a retail and residential promenade. The area catered to the upper-class citizens of Rapture as a center where they could dine and spend in style. With its spectacular sea views and Art Deco grandeur, Market Street truly showcased the best in Rapture's design.

Burial at Sea - Episode 1
Waking up in his office in Market Street, Booker DeWitt is asked by an enigmatic woman named  Elizabeth to take on a case: find  Sally , a girl who's gone missing. Booker asserts the child is dead, but when Elizabeth hints otherwise he follows her and takes the case.

Market Street is buzzing with activity as Rapture's populace prepares to ring in the New Year. Most joke and gossip about philosophy and politics, while other individuals discuss more contemporary issues like Andrew Ryan and the recent take down of Frank Fontaine, Big Daddies, Splicing, and the recently developed Radar Range. Through his interactions with various people, it's clear that Booker is a well-known, slightly infamous, man about town. As the duo walk past the Little Wonders Educational Facility, Elizabeth pauses and is taken aback by the public presence of the conditioned Little Sisters being taught signals and signs by their instructor. They proceed to take an elevator up to High Street, the more established retail district, to reach the Garden of the Muses where Elizabeth expects to find a man with information for their investigation.
