Red Hook[edit | edit source]
Red Hook is an amazing part of NYC. It is well known for culture, community, architecture, history and much more. This place has the chance to be a pioneering location in the Metaverse. The community focus is in developing their infrastructure the best way possible to host metaventures, provide community services, and create awesome events! They want to share their love for this borough and build this up with you. NOCIPHE & UPTHEDALE the founders as well as the COUNCIL would be pleased to discuss their vision.
History in Upland[edit | edit source]
In early 2021 Upthedale and Nociphe met on the Upland server general chat and started to envision the future of Red Hook in the metaverse. From this idea they started to locate the whole owner base of this one of a kind neighbourhood and set the name of this community as RHR, Red Hook Residents. When the project started to blossom they tried to approach a charity based in Red Hook IRL named RHAP to set up a partnership based on extracting wells from Upland to found the purpose of this great charity. Sadly, after many months of talk, they aborted the partnership, probably RHAP wasn’t ready yet to step in the Metaverse.

Future in the metaverse[edit | edit source]
RHR plan on time to work closely with the inhabitants of IRL Red Hook to bring their amazing artisanat in the Upland metaverse. The community is actively looking for business owners in Upland who would open their business in Red Hook, plus with all the new type of metaventures will bring crowds and diversity on the famous Van Brunt street. The community is actively looking for designers who are attracted by the Red Hook architecture and would help to provide custom structures to make a step forward to rebuild the industrial soul mixed with a note of future for Red Hook. The community is actively looking for event creators (music, spectacle, art, etc..) to help gather the Upland community in this awesome spot. The community is actively looking for investors to help shape the future of Red Hook by founding new initiatives and purchasing vacant plots.
Contact RHR[edit | edit source]
There are actually two places where you can reach the community, one is reserved for our residents when the other is the place where you'll have access to all their businesses and activities.
So if you own a property in Red Hook, head over to the RHR Red Hook Residents server on Discord. If you are simply looking for what we provide in terms of goods and services, head to the Red Hook City server on Discord.
In Upland you'll find most of their activity on Van Brunt street, as it’s the main street IRL we chose to focus on this street for most of our development. The community can’t wait to be able to build warehouses in Upland to recreate the essence of the IRL Red Hook.
