Description
Old Town is of a design much different from the rest of the city. Large buildings dating back to the first colonists of Venus still maintained. The structures contain many number of scientific experiments, including those on the technology of the buildings themselves. In stark contrast, a large Aenean village has developed around it. Like the other suburban villages, housing is cheap, the culture is more rural, and the law is much less present. North Village benefits directly from the traffic coming from the north into Io as well as having an good relationship with the local intelligentsia and scientists.

Standing above the entire district is the Biohab Tower. This is the nexus for Old Town's affairs as well as a self contained oasis. Much of the habitats are open to the public, though traffic is carefully monitored and many areas are still off limits to most.

In a large building built like a fortress near the Biohab Tower is the Mercenary's Union Hall. Since the Aphrodian government depends so largely on private security, all military firms that wish to operate in Aphrodia must register with the Merc Union. This helps limit conflicts of interest between the various companies.
