The Federal Reserve Bank of New York was a major bank in New York City.
Background[]
Many years before venturing to Appalachia, Johnny Weston was part of a crew that tried to break into and plunder the reserve. The plan fell through and his crew bailed on him, resulting in him getting caught. His face was logged onto a central database of known felons, which interferes with his attempts to break into Vault 79 if a member of Vault 76 enlists the help of the Raiders.[1]
Appearances[]
The Federal Reserve Bank of New York is mentioned only in Fallout 76, introduced in the Wastelanders update.
Behind the scenes[]
The Federal Reserve Bank of New York is a real-life financial institution, one of the twelve regional banks under the U.S. central banking system. Its physical headquarters is located in New York City, New York.

- ↑ Johnny Weston: "Funny thing. A long time ago, I broke into a similar system up at the Federal Reserve in New York. This here biometric scanner must run off of some sort of central database. Seems it can detect a known felon, and it's completely locked me out. We need it in order to get in."
Vault Dweller: "I thought there wasn't a system you couldn't beat?"
Johnny Weston: "Hey, that was the only one. I was young and stupid back then, and only got caught because my crew bailed on me. I've learned a lot since then. I'll get this one."
