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 homes are of a similar design to The House of Tomorrow in Sanctuary Hills, but several homes were still under construction before the Great War. It was home to Wayne Tournquist and his family, Ron Cobb, and brothers Lance and Leon Ames, among others.

Shortly before the war, Wayne built a bomb shelter in his backyard to protect his family. When the bombs dropped, he and his children survived inside, but his wife Bonnie was left stranded at her workplace in Boston. In the weeks afterwards, Wayne set up an automated radio broadcast in an attempt to contact her.

By January of 2078, Wayne was forced to scavenge from his neighbors' homes for supplies. On one outing, he was accosted by Ron, who had turned into a ghoul. Ron attempted to kill him, but was shot by Lance and Leon, who had just returned after finding themselves stranded in Connecticut. Soon afterwards, the three set about fortifying the neighborhood.

Two months later, Lance and Leon encountered a group of armed men on a scouting run, including several of Leon's former mob associates. Despite Lance's attempts at discretion, Leon divulged a great deal of information to the strangers. Soon after, the strangers attacked the settlement and took over; Lance was killed trying to resist and Leon surrendered to the raiders. In the chaos, Wayne and his children fled.

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

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.
