Background
Publications
Inside, prepare for combat with large green foes. Grab the magazine and search the trunk on the top floor, and don’t forget to check the basement level—the remains of a jewelry store—to access a button near a Railroad sign. It opens a hidden bookcase in the southwest corner. Pry open six safes. Or just use the key in the toolbox if you’re out of bobby pins or patience. Don’t leave without heading to the Level 2 “Employees Only” storage room (Novice) on the west wall; there’s an Eyebot model kit to take on the shelves near the Protectron and terminal (Novice).”— Fallout 4 Vault Dweller's Survival Guide Map
Layout
The basement has the remains of a well-looted jewelry store, with six safes in a hidden room accessible by hitting a button under the corner of the central sales desk. A Protectron is in the southwest corner. The first floor has exterior entrances in the southeast and northwest, a lighting store in the east central section, a clothing store to the west, and bathrooms to the north.
The second floor has a kitchen area on the east side, a bathroom showcase on the west side with a Protectron in a locked room next to it, and a cafe and some bathrooms at the north end. The third floor consists of a clothing store to the west and a bar to the north. A Protectron is in the southeast corner.
A distress signal radio broadcast originates from the jewelry department in the basement. Extending the satellite dishes at relay tower 0SC-527 is required to hear this signal.

| Character | Comment |
|---|---|
| Cait | "What's with these weird metal stairs?" "How come these things never have statues of naked blokes?" |
| Codsworth | "Ah, I do so miss shopping expeditions." "This fountain is quite the visual respite." |
| Curie | "Oh, shopping!" |
| Danse | "I believe this automated staircase was used to convey individuals from one floor to the next. The epitome of laziness." "This fountain is just another example of the waste and excess of pre-war America." |
| Deacon | "Nothing like the smell of commerce." |
| John Hancock | "This some sort of "moving target" thing?" |
| "Now this is my kinda art." | |
| Robert MacCready | "Hurry, I heard they had a two-for-one sale in the men's department!" |
| "Should I throw a cap in and make a wish?" | |
| Nick Valentine | "They really would do anything to avoid walking back then, wouldn't they?" |
| "I expect all the blood in here's a recent addition." | |
| Piper Wright | "Bet this was where all the fashionable folks of Boston came in its day." |
| "Was there a ban on depicting anything other than an old general, a lion, or an angry-looking naked lady back then?" | |
| Preston Garvey | "Just look at this place... How many clothes did people need back in the old days?" |
| "A little over the top, don't you think?" | |
| X6-88 | "Maybe we should install these in the Institute. They look useful." |
| "It must have been quite a chore to keep this communal drinking basin clean." |
