First of all, let me say that I'm from Newark.
Secondly, let me say that I'm an avid Dresden reader, and I enjoyed the show.

In light of that, I think that a cityscape based on Newark is a FANTASTIC idea.

I mean, the city was founded in 1666, for God's sake. 1666! That's just begging for something right there.

The varying trends of ethnic neighborhoods, the sprawling decay, followed by the more recent attempt at renewal - imagine how twisted the ley lines are...

...if you want MY advice, though, make the Downneck area a place that the Fey don't like to go to. I mean, it IS called the "Ironbound". With that many railroad tracks - OLD railroad tracks - I bet that they'd feel like it was some sort of binding.
