Rivet City

Rivet City is a large central population hub in Washington, DC, based in and around the remains of a beached aircraft carrier. It is located in the water southeast of the Washington Monument.

To enter the carrier you will have to climb the structure on shore opposite the carrier and use the intercom mounted on the left hand side.

Appearances
Rivet City appears only in Fallout 3.

Behind the scenes
The Craig Mullins concept art published on May 15, 2007 shows a city with ruined skyscrapers and an aircraft carrier which has run ashore and is connected to one of them by a rudimentary bridge. The aircraft carrier appears to be the USS Oriskany although the image is mirrored thus placing the island on the wrong side of the ship. The picture that was used for reference is located on a website devoted to naval vessels.
