Boardwalk

Template:Ratings Template:Multiplayer Map Infobox Template:Article Quote Boardwalk is a multiplayer map in Halo: Reach.^[1] The map is set in an urban plaza in the city of New Alexandria, with many walkways, and is near a MagLev Train line. The plaza has many scorch marks, craters, and damaged wall fragments due to Covenant attack and the map's ambient sounds contain explosions and heavy cannon fire.

Locations

Jet Packs allow for easy ascent up the multitude of stories without having to locate a flight of stairs and head up the way that could be guarded by opponents.
The sniper area provides good cover from players on the low ground as well as the back. Snipe a few players, then move. If someone has a DMR and they're targeting you, retreat and snipe from another location.
The red team can use the trees on the map as a "Sniper nest" by climbing into them, the red hue on their armor blends in perfectly.

This map is seen in the Gamestop commercial for the unlockable armor.^[2]
If you get near or past the kill barrier on the map, the door frames outside of the map are filled with a solid wall of gray instead of a door.

On the right side of the map, facing the Overlook/Visitor center, the broken rail that Noble Six jumps down from in Exodus can be seen.
The map is a transitioning area for travelers, the blue team spawn is a rest house from the train (including two bathrooms), which leads into a courtyard with maintenance tunnel access, while the back building appears to be a closed off visitor center or mall, and the left side building is the city council.
The map appears in the campaign on the level Exodus at the beginning of the level.
There is an easter egg where it says "make out point" on one of the lamp posts
