Covent Garden is the market district of the Strand, a database landmark in Syndicate. George Westhouse jokes in the opening memory that the twins could play nightly at Covent Garden.
The land was a garden of Westminster Abbey until Henry VIII seized it in 1536. The market was first recorded in 1654 and moved south of the Thames in 1974.
The game borrows Covent Garden's market architecture for Spitalfields Market in Whitechapel, whose hall is modelled on the old Apple Market here. St. Paul's, Covent Garden, the actors' church, is a separate database entry on the piazza, and its record is the only place the game mentions the Royal Opera House.
Alhambra Music Hall
The Alhambra Music Hall is Maxwell Roth's theatre on Leicester Square in the Strand, the Blighter leader's base and the stage for Jacob's final showdown with him. Several of Jacob's memories with Roth start here.
Bed and Bottle
The Bed and Bottle is a pub and lodging house in the Strand run by the Templars Argus and Rose Bartlett, who use it to make guests disappear. Their Templar Hunt brings you here.
Charing Cross station
Charing Cross station is a railway terminus in the Strand beside Trafalgar Square. Several memories point you here, from the End of the Line engine heist to Darwin's fossil delivery.
Clare Market
Clare Market is a Blighter stronghold in the Strand, held for Victor Lynch next to the food market that gives it its name. It is one of the two strongholds you capture to take the borough.
