Bridgeport
Ts3ln001
'Founded by Ebenezer Alto at the turn of the century, Bridgeport was once a busy shipping town inhabited by sailors and smugglers. However, when the film industry came to the city, celebrities, Simoleons, and the sparkling lights of fame took over. Now a vibrant city with an energetic night life and bustling club scene, Bridgeport has made its mark on the map. With all the lights on, will its past ever resurface?'

Description

Bridgeport is a neighborhood that was released in The Sims 3: Late Night expansion pack[1]. It is designed to focus on late night activities, and is similar in many respects to Downtown, a previous sub-neighborhood introduced in The Sims: Hot Date and The Sims 2: Nightlife expansion packs.

With the official announcement of Late Night, it was apparent that a new town would be created to showcase the new features in the expansion. Initially, it was unknown whether this would be a sub-neighborhood and thus similar to the Downtown of The Sims and The Sims 2, or whether it would be an entirely new neighborhood (much like The Sims 3: Ambitions introduced Twinbrook) Although it is said that Bridgeport is 3x bigger than Twinbrook. During a Twitter session on July 29th, 2010, game producer Grant Rodiek confirmed the existence of a "downtown" that would be its own separate neighborhood; it was also announced that the town was unnamed, thus indicating that the new town would most likely not be named 'Downtown' [2]. GameSpot, in an article released on August 16, 2010, revealed that the name of the new neighborhood is 'Bridgeport'[1]

The town of Bridgeport includes high rises and penthouse lofts. It has similar features to Twinbrook, in the way that it is made of multiple islands connected by bridges. Sims are able to both drive and walk over these bridges[3]. It has been described as "a mix of downtown San Francisco with the hills of Los Angeles/Hollywood just across the bridge"[4]

Bridgeport is divided in two main areas. An urban city center and a more sub-urban area with luxury mansions[5] Bridgeport features new graphics for certain Rabbit holes[5]

Trivia

  • Bridgeport is the name of many cities in the United States[7], most notably Bridgeport, Connecticut.
  • Many players believe Bridgeport has a similar appearance to New York City, Detroit, and other major American cities, this may be supported by the screenshot from above. The bridge bears a faint resemblance to the Brooklyn Bridge. However, EA has stated it is not based upon New York City.[8]
  • According to a GameSpot preview, the city was inspired by Los Angeles and San Francisco, both major cities on the Pacific coast of the US[9].
  • There are about 19 new Sim families and 2 Vampire families.[2] [3]
  • 14 homeless Sims and 16 homeless Vampires.[4]
  • 7 Single Vampires[5]
  • 15 Celebrities[6]
  • It was speculated that some families would return in Late Night but when the game came out but there were no returning families, besides a reference to the Alto Family (Ebenezer Alto founded Bridgeport).
  • Bridgeport is 3x bigger than Twinbrook.
  • You can find pigeons hanging around the front of town hall during the day
  • Bridgeport is also a city in the book "Homecoming". A book about a crazy mother

    The Mini City

    abandoning 4 children in the middle of the night forced to go to Bridgeport with little money.
  • Smuggler cove is a connection to Barnacle Bay.
  • Many townies are also family of playable sims, such as Flo-Flo Chique and Ryan Atkins.
  • Several urns and gravestones are scattered about the city's alleyways. Also, similar to Twinbrook's and Barnacle Bay's deceased, the ghosts have a grey color scheme.
  • There is a "mini city" behind Bridgeport. If you turn the camera, and follow the road that leads outside the city, you can see it.
  • Due to the size of Bridgeport, and the fact that you can't own cars on most of the apartment lots, many taxis can be seen around town.
  • Bridgeport has many roads which sink into the see, which may hint a flood before the games start.
