Charing Cross Station is a location in Watch Dogs: Legion.
Background[]
A railway and tube station located on the Thames River embankment, Charing Cross is most notable for the Charing Cross Hotel, opened in 1865 and built in the French Renaissance style. Damaged in 1905 and extensively rebuilt, it remains in use as a public transit hub. It also bore witness to some of the nastier examples of moral decay under Albion: After Glen Lancaster, IT Support Lead for the London underground, discovered that Abdulaziz âGizâ Gimazetdinova, IT Support Manager, installed a skimmer to shave off fractions of a pence to deposit them in her account, he blackmailed her superior in an attempt to get a cut.[1]
When that failed, he reported her to Albion, which in its racist, authoritarian fashion abducted her for deportation. Thus, Glen secured access to skimmer and a promotion for himself.[2]
Layout[]
The tube access is located on both sides of the building, with the Embankment station facing Thames and the Charing Cross the City of Westminster. There are two text files to collect, one on the skybridge connecting it to an adjacent building (use a cargo drone to access it) and another

| FROM: G. Lancaster TO: LDN_Undeground_IT_All SUBJECT: Sorry about the theatrics Hey everyone, So let me start by addressing the incident a few days ago. I know thereâs a lot of rumours flying around, so I just want to confirm the facts. First, Giz WAS taken by Albion for immigration reasons. Iâm not sure on the specifics, and I donât think it does anyone any good to speculate. Second, we have no way of knowing who reported him or why. I know he was well-liked, but I canât have any of you turning on each other either. Weâre still a team. Lastly, on a happier note, I can confirm that management has asked me to step in to Gizâs old position, at least for the time being. Please donât hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. Glen Lancaster IT Support Manager London Underground |

| FROM: G. Lancaster TO: A. Gimazetdinova SUBJECT: Got you Hey Giz, Recognise the attachment? You should, itâs your script. Iâll remind you, though. Itâs the one shaving fractions of a p off Oyster reloads with every transaction. I have to say, itâs pretty clever. With the pound tanking, the math doesnât work out so cleanly anymore. Those hanging digits were just getting rounded down. Now theyâre being put to use. Anyway, look. Cut me in and this doesnât have to go any further. Glen Lancaster IT Support Lead London Underground -- FROM: A. Gimazetdinova TO: G. Lancaster SUBJECT: Re: Got you Hey Glen, Donât know what youâre talking about. And if I did, it would be blackmail, which is also illegal. So you couldnât screw me without screwing yourself. Cheers, Abdulaziz âGizâ Gimazetdinova IT Support Manager London Underground |
