Every July 4, Newgate celebrates Battleday which commemorates its victory over the Newgate Battalion on July 4, 1777.

Like people on the outside, Newgaters love parades, celebrations, and firework displays.  The people also love their city and the people in it; even the synthetics that make up most of the general population.  It is like New York City in that people from a host of dimensions visit and work in Newgate just like people from a host of nations visit and work in New York City. 

It is like a typical New England town in its general appearance, its belief in democracy for every citizen, and old-fashioned values like the belief in hard work and a reverence for God that is lacking in too many places. It also enjoys the seasons like many New Englanders do.

It is like Area 51 and other secret government installations due to the university’s involvement in the science department with ACE.  Some developments and technologies may never be known by the general public, even in Newgate, until after the existence of the Alien Cooperation Enterprise is made known to the public.  WNGT was only able to show to viewers what ACE allowed it to show.  Everything else is so classified that in comparison, the Roswell Incident in 1947 seems more like headline news compared to the secrecy associated with ACE. 

Newgate is a cultural center, a historical place despite the secrecy, a place of learning, a spiritual oasis in an increasingly barren region for God and his work, and a wonderful place to live.  If I could live anywhere in the world, Newgate, New York would be my choice I would want to call home.  Once you’re accepted by the people, they can make you feel like you have always belonged.   Being able to shift to different dimensions is just a big plus for people who are tired of going to the same old places all the time. 

Being in love with science fiction and God makes Newgate the perfect place for someone like me.  And with two fine Baptist churches to choose from, I would easily have a church home in Newgate.  And those who attend church services go because they really believe in the Bible and what God says.  And as the old Newgate statement goes, no one who shifts between dimensions is an atheist because they all know where Heaven and Hell are located.  For me, Newgate, New York sounds like a little bit of Heaven on Earth.
