West Everett Estates

The West Everett Estates is a location in the Commonwealth in 2287, located north from downtown Boston across the Charles River.

Background
West Everett Estates is a suburb made up of a few single-family homes. The place is similar to The House of Tomorrow in Sanctuary Hills but some houses appear to be unfinished by the time of the war. Wayne Tournquist, one of the survivors has established a survivalist bunker to house his two children, himself and his wife, Bonnie who was unable to make it the bunker when the bombs dropped. The bunker also has an established source of clean water.

The community in the suburb fortified itself after Lance and Leon Ames, brothers who were residents in the area arrived after a week of trekking back to the town. According to terminals and holotapes in the area, Wayne helped in fortifying the place and Leon managed to hotwire some vehicles for usage.

Leon unwittingly revealed the location of their walled-up base to a rough group of men, which included people that were known to them before the war when scouting with his brother. Soon after the settlement was taken over by the raiders and Lance was killed trying to resist and Leon joined the raiders in fright. Wayne evacuated his children and escaped.

When the Sole Survivor arrives at West Everett Estates a group of fierce super mutants led by Hammer had established control of the town. The corpses of the raiders that previously controlled the town are littered throughout the settlement.

According to Hammer's holotape he had a raider teach him how to control the spotlights, turrets and how to use a voice recording machine. He accidentally killed the raider while he was setting up the recorder for him. In his holotape Hammer requests Fist send reinforcements so they can further loot the area. He also mentions that the basement bunker belonging to Wayne has a lot of loot.

Layout
West Everett Estates has several destroyed buildings, though most of them are still accessible. Raider corpses are sprawled out over the area, with a number of them concentrated near a cooking station. The leader, Hammer, resides in the ruins of Wayne's home.

The backyard bunker is the source of the separated family radio signal created by Wayne.

Bugs

 * Where the human would normally speak in Hammer's holotape, there is no sound.
 * It is possible the raiders will spawn after clearing out the super mutants as well as the brother attacking. This can cause the game to freeze.
 * Hammer's corpse vanishes and one might miss it. It becomes visible again just for one second after exiting the bunker. The Sole Survivor can loot the spot where the corpse is supposed to be no matter what.
