Summary of The Grandson of a Neuromancer - The Sprawl

The subtitles describe The Sprawl, an urban sprawl along the East Coast of America, containing New York and other former cities. It features Fuller domes and arcologies, with freak winds on the East side. Residents are unable to observe the natural day-night cycle and weather due to the domes. Citizens have a BAMA Single Identification Number for transportation, including the trans-BAMA local. The local glides booming in along the black induction strip, passing crowded station platforms.
