Ruined Store (Fallout: New Vegas)

The  is a destroyed building in West Freeside. It is located near Cerulean Robotics.

Layout
The only entrance is locked and requires a key to open. During the G.I. Blues quest there will be 2 NCR Troopers standing outside the entrance. In order to enter the building to talk to Elizabeth Kieran you must pass a Speech check of 60 (or 30) from one of the troopers, you can pickpocket a key to the store, or you can obtain the password from the Missionary after answering his three questions to convince him you are an NCR citizen. Inside you will find Squatters receiving free food and drinks from Elizabeth Kieran. During the G.I. Blues quest, you may take all the food and stimpaks without retaliation, even though it says steal instead of take on the items. You do still lose Karma when taking the items, though. There is also a duffel bag in the back room with a Beret and NCR Trooper Armor inside.

Finding the store is not easy if you rely on the Pip-Boy. To get there from the Silver Rush cross the street and enter the building where the druggie is sitting on the floor. Take the door located on the first floor. On the other side, run straight then take a left and another left, looping around the rubble.
