rive north from
Capcom’s
headquarters in
downtown Osaka,
along the Tosabori
River, and in about 20 minutes
you’ll see a unique red-bricked
building with a domed roof. This is
the Osaka City Central Public Hall,
one of the city’s most beloved
buildings and part of the inspiration
for the Raccoon City Police
Department in Resident Evil 2. This
iconic setting, which fans count
among the series’ best, was
confidently reimagined in the 2019
remake, and this is the story of how
it was designed.cc nCityPoliceDepartment
