| | New Tyne is the most prominent location on Venezia. It is a hotspot for [[Insurrectionist]] activity and a refuge for both human and non-human deserters and criminals. It was the kind of place where everybody practically knew everyone. The city had an armed militia under the control of a centralized Insurrectionist leadership headed by [[Peter Moritz]].<ref>'''Halo: Mortal Dictata''', ''page 159''</ref> |

| After Sav mysteriously disappeared, his mate, [[Nor Fel]], consolidated power and wealth in New Tyne in the form of a [[Nor Fel's clearing house|a clearing house]]. [[Operation: RETRIBUTION]] took place in the city as well.
| | In [[2553|March 2553]], [[Malcolm Geffen]] and [[Vasily Beloi]] infiltrated the city with the help of [[Mike Spenser]]. They discovered [[Jiralhanae]], [[Kig-Yar]] and [[Unggoy]] were all operating out of here. It was here that they discovered [[Staffan Sentzke]], [[Naomi-010]]'s father, had joined the Insurrectionist movement.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 449''</ref> |

| | Later in April, [[Kilo-Five]] resumed their investigation of New Tyne. Naomi and Vaz alerted Spenser when they spotted Sentzke in company with Shipmaster Sav Fel, the possessor of the stolen Covenant battlecruiser ''[[Pious Inquisitor]]''.

| Scattered farms and factories are found ten to fifteen kilometers away from the city.<ref name="mdc3">''Halo: Mortal Dictata'', Chapter 3</ref> The town itself has small homes, buildings, and office blocks that are generally similar in appearance. Anti-air batteries are placed on the corners of some of the city's intersections.<ref>''Halo: The Thursday War''</ref> The south end of New Tyne is home to an old slate quarry and 15 [[Mount Longdon Road]], [[Staffan Sentzke]]'s homestead.<ref name="mdc2">''Halo: Mortal Dictata'', Chapter 2</ref> The quarry was formed during the excavation of sandstone for the city. It was later converted into a cathedral-like hangar which holds numerous aircraft for the militia.<ref>''Halo: Mortal Dictata'', Chapter 4</ref> Numerous bars are found throughout the town such as [[Stavros' Middle East Asian Cuisine and Bar]]{{Ref/Reuse|mdc3}} and [[Tiny Birds]]. The latter is considered the worst dive bar New Tyne has to offer and is tucked a one-story retail mall on its southern outskirts. South of New Tyne, there is a large, uninhabited forest.{{Ref/Reuse|mdc7}} The western side of the town is bordered by a river. [[Shipmaster]] [[Sav Fel]] lived in a large manor five kilometers west of the city.{{Ref/Reuse|mdc2}}
