6 - North Shore
The North Shore of Rapture is a center of economic power for the nation. Up and down the coast, large cities with vast ports collect goods day in and day out. One of the biggest cities is Helmferth City, with its mountainous skyscrapers which grace the skyline.
Farther Northeast, the elevation starts to climb. For some cities, this has caused problems with development. Some cities have dug trench to keep the highway at a level grade for good stretches, while others just make the slope a bit more gradual. 
Helmferth City is the hub of economics for this region. The downtown is full of corporate offices that stretch high into the sky.
The crown jewel of the business district is the Torne` Tower, which is the worl headquarters for Bank of Rapture. Depending on which side of the building your office is on, you will have a view of either the University, the seaport, the airport, or the North End.
As the Business District grew and expanded, the airport was relocated to the other edge of the city so as to better facilitate travel. This move made the airport serviceable from many of the adjoining cities.
The port is set in the cove at the mouth of the river opposite the commercial district. Many of the skyscrapers from the other side of the river have this beautiful view from their windows.
