Vinetown is a suburb of Malton, located in the southeast of the city.
One of Malton’s lower-middle, working-class neighborhoods, Vinetown had fallen on hard times in the mid-1980s, when layoffs and shutdowns at local factories pushed it into an era of extreme poverty; with crime, joblessness and poverty hitting all-time highs. A slow turnaround had begun by the early ‘90s and, prior to the outbreak, Vinetown was undergoing a massive period of urban renewal.
Vinetown was named for a small but highly-regarded winemaking operation that flourished in the region in the early 20th Century, established under the auspices of a group called the Priory of St. Armand – based at St. John's Cathedral. Colwill Grove Select was prized by wine experts and a solid money-maker for the church’s charitable efforts before production was abandoned during World War II. St. John’s was one of two buildings that dominated the landscape of Vinetown in the days before the outbreak.
To the south, Mitchem Mall, built in the late ‘70s, adapted quickly to the region’s economic downturn – filling its vacated storefronts with space for local vendors. Catering to local artisans (alongside cheap rents) helped create a thriving arts and music community despite the area’s impoverished status. (It’s rumored that singer-songwriter Tom Waits wrote much of the material for his 1980 album “Heart Attack and Vine” while staying at the The Pilyer Hotel, located on Malton’s Vine Street, during a run of shows at Club Izzard and Club Quarman – which then catered to live music audiences.)

Things to do in Vinetown
- Haggle your heart out at Mitchem Mall, with its eclectic mix of drugstores, gun shops and Radio Shack. If TSI is in town, the Comfy Chairs 'R' Us showroom may also be open. Fat Sam's Big Fat One-Stop Fuel Shop is closed until further notice.
- Gaze in awe at St John's Cathedral's bloodstained-glass windows and ornate reliquaries, full of holy bones (some of them dating as far back as 2005).
- Just had your umpteenth headshot? A perfect excuse to get that nose-job you've always wanted - at Gelasius General Hospital!
- At a dead end? Given up breathing? Perk up at Bhore Monument or the Dinovan Monument. For prompt service, put in a Revive Request.
- Give yourself a brain-food break! Visit The Godfry Museum, The Daniels Museum and the Salisbury Museum and learn about European sculpture, skeletons and umbrellas, or settle down for a quiet read at the Chatwin Library.
- Laugh the night away at Club Izzard and choose between cake or death!
