History: This was one of the first districts laid out in the new Amber and it is one of the best organized. Roads, sewer, water are all above average. It is also one of the more populous districts. The history of the Gate district was shaky at first. Ruffians liked it for it's proximity to the main gate but soon neighborhood groups organized and made sure that their life was not pleasant. After what is called the night war, the residence of the gate district launched all out attacks on those criminals and marginal people who were not already on the way out. The criminals were routed and sent fleeing into the night. From then on this area has been one of the best places to live. No longer the home to Casino's and empty warehouses this is now the living room of Amber.
