Electric City

So, do you think Electric City's existence is a paradox given the mature plot?

 

It's obviously not Paradigm City or even nearby. Is Electric City one of these "ruins" out in the desert?

Well, it's certainly not a thriving sort of place. But the show suggests that it helps produce Paradigm's power, so I'd say it's still connected to the city proper. Hell, Norman was able to get Big O out to Roger.

Yeah, that is odd. It must be a very large subway system. Just the scene of Roger driving to Electric City gave me the impression that it was quite a drive to get there.

IIRC we've had a discussion thread before on Electric City.  It was noted that "Electric City" is the nickname for Scranton, PA, which is some distance from NYC.

 

The challenge is trying to figure out the hydroelectric dam.

 

Based on the proximity of "Electric City" to Paradigm City, I'm guessing it would be someplace in New Jersey.
