Bridge tower

The bridge tower of Rivet City is home to Rivet City Security and contains the sleeping quarters for the guards as well as a well-stocked armory.

Armory
The key to the armory is carried both by Harkness and Lana Danvers. A Mister Gutsy named Private Jones guards the door but he can be easily distracted with a successful speech check. Be aware that there is a hostile automated turret inside, using a Stealth Boy is recommended if you do not want to turn the whole town hostile. You can also use the Chinese stealth armor to access the items, just make sure you keep some distance between yourself and the automated turret so it doesn't detect you. Alternatively, to make sure no one goes hostile, it sometimes works to simply enter the armory, close the door, and destroy the turret in V.A.T.S..

Harkness opens the armory door from time to time, but upon attempting to enter Jones and Harkness both attack you and lock the armory door.

Bugs

 * The hostile turret inside the armory can see you from the space around the door (you can also target it in V.A.T.S. from the right position). This will occasionally result in Private Jones and the guards becoming hostile as well.
