HISTORY
Haiku Bay is a small city off the upper west coast. It began as a small fishing island with limited infrastructure and few inhabitants. In the 1960's Japanese citizens began to flock to the island, drawn in by the fishing and available land. Thanks to the island's now booming population and economy the town became a must visit site in the 70's and 80's. Soon, however, Haiku Bay fell off the tourist map. The island became a mix of Japanese and northeastern aesthetics. Beginning in 2010, the island has been renovating and modernizing buildings around the island. The town has become sort of a secret hot spot of the northwest. The town is home to amazing restaurants, cafes, local shops, a boardwalk, and a beautiful reservation that contains the mountains.
DISTRICTS
MAIN STREET
Main street is where all the local government buildings are located. The town hall, police and fire station, DMV, and so on. Unless you have an errand or you work there this district is relatively empty. Save for a few of the lunch places and cafe's around the area.
DOWNTOWN
Downtown is the most populated area of Haiku Bay throughout the day. All the stores, restaurants, and cafes are located here. It's a great place to meet new people and buy treats. Stores line the side of the streets with lights stringed from building to building. Many of residents work in this area of the island.
PARK
The park district is home to the biggest park in Haiku. The beautiful Japanese gardens are located here as well. It is a nice place to take a walk, view the green house, or feed some koi. This is where to the more traditional buildings and businesses reside.
ART
Shops geared more towards crafts are located here. You can also take a few art classes such as ceramics or terrarium building for an exciting night. The more artsy coffee shops are located here as well. The buildings here are more modern and are painted with uncommon colours.
RED LIGHT
This district centers mostly around one alley. It's home to most of the bars, clubs, and more of the risqué businesses of Haiku Bay. Although Haiku Bay doesn't have a high crime rate you wouldn't want to be caught alone in the darker spaces. Most of the businesses of the red light district start opening around 8 p.m. and start to close at 3 a.m.
