Pacifica's biggest, ugliest temple to greed.
The Grand Imperial Mall (GIM) is an abandoned shopping mall located in Coastview, in the Pacifica district of southern Night City.
Overview[]
The Grand Imperial Mall was meant to be the largest and most luxurious shopping center within the Pacifica district during its redevelopment. It was aimed to contain six-floors with more than seventy stores, service outlets, restaurants, a gym, a cinema, its own amusement park — Eden Beach — as well as Hotel Tropique. The facilities would also offer napping pods available on-demand, and a lottery that would allow mall clients to participate for the chance of winning free park ride tickets after every purchase.[1][2][3]
Although the shopping mall was almost complete by 2069, funding dried up during the Unification War and it was soon after abandoned.[1] When the Voodoo Boys gang took control of western Pacifica, they preferred to keep away from the mall as they considered it reeked of corpo vanity.[2] In 2077, the structure became a temporary base of operations for the Animals gang and NetWatch agent Bryce Mosley during his operations to stop the Voodoo Boys.[4] When the Animals left, Scavengers scoured the place for valuables.[2]
A boxing ring within the mall was momentarily used for the final match championship between V and Razor Hugh.[5]

GRAND IMPERIAL MALL (GIM)
Just as Pacifica was meant to be the crown jewel of Night City, so the Grand Imperial was hyped up to be the district's most luxurious mall. Located by the shore, the six-floor behemoth was meant to contain over seventy stores, service outlets and restaurants, a movie theater and a ferris wheel and rollercoaster outside. Even when construction was abandoned, the mall reeked of corpo vanity so much so that even the Voodoo Boys preferred to keep their distance after taking over the district.[2]
Notable Locations[]
