Kizingo Boulevard is a Halo 3: ODST level. The level takes place in the Kizingo District of New Mombasa, on the Kizingo Boulevard, during daytime.
Summary
90 minutes after the drop, Mickey finds himself in the middle of a fierce battle between the Covenant and the UNSC. He commandeers a Scorpion Tank, and fights his way along the Kizingo Boulevard with the aid of other UNSC Marines. Eventually, he and Dutch meet up at the rally point at the entrance to the ONI Alpha Base, where they defend the area against waves of Covenant attackers. After the battle, Mickey proposes they hold up and wait for backup, when an NMPD officer comes asking if they can use explosives. They decide to follow the officer into the ONI facility.[2]

MICKEY
Kizingo Boulevard
90 Minutes after the drop
{Mickey is seen running down a street, just as he reaches the junction, a Scorpion Tank is seen backing up at high speed, followed by a few Marines. He tries to get the marines' attention, and finally manages to receive an answer.}
Mickey: Where's the fight at?
Marine: Take a guess, genius.
{Mickey walks out into the street, a Wraith comes into view. It fires a mortar round, as its gunner fires at Mickey, who runs into cover. The Mortar makes contact with a bus behind him, causing a plasma-made fire and an explosion, knocking Mickey down.}
Mickey: Ah!
{Mickey rises back up.}
Mickey: Son of a gun!
{The Marines take cover under a building.}
Marine {fires semi-automatic bursts from Assault Rifle}: Wanna live? Then get your ass out of the street!
{The Scorpion fires a shell right pass Mickey's ear.}
Mickey: Wait for me!
{Gameplay begins}
Trivia
- Completing the level unlocks Mickey for use in Firefight and the Kizingo Boulevard achievement.[3]
- The beacon to start this level is a certain destroyed Gauss Turret.
- Interestingly, the Marines yell at you to save the Scorpion from being destroyed by Wraith fire, although there are 2 Scorpions, one of them is completely ignored and the Wraith never fires at it unless you or a friendly are close to it. It is likely there for Co-op purposes.
- Near the beacon, there is a HEV pod. It is possible that it is Mickey's or Romeo's because their pods are never seen.
- It is possible to ride on the side of the tank unlike in Halo 3 where only NPCs can ride on the sides. This is most likely due to the fact that you are an ODST, and Co-op would be more difficult.
