Discrepancy

In ep.4 when Prufrock is back at the Sheriff's office after making bail, he sees an official document on the counter. The camera tilts down to show where the bail bondsman's name is, and we also see Jim Prufrock's last known address, which is listed as Martha's Boarding House on "...ell Lane" (the beginning is out of frame).

But according to the Push Times and the Chamber of Commerce, Martha's Boarding House is located on Bellevue Place. This is probably a minor continuity error between the show's production company and the game integration team.

Speaking of which ...
1) maybe we need to copy the list of business addresses here, for reference purposes. I'll grab the last posted list from ARGN and update it with later additions.
2) the game integration team is listed in the closing credits of the show (at least i saw them at the end of Ep.4) and there are some amusing names:
Arlene Golant, the blackjack tourney winner from the Versailles Casino website; Alan Olifson, business owner who writes about his dog Farful in the Push Times; etc.

You're probably right, but is it possible that Martha's place is big enough to be on more than one street. We know they have more than one wing. But again, you're likely right. Good catch!

Hi, catherwood.

Do you think we could get a copy of all the WHOIS info
that was collected on each of the different businesses and
corporations related to Push?

That way, they'll all be gathered here in one spot?

I think it might be a good thing.

Thanks.

Following up:
Got a better look at the bail papers, and they definitely list the address of Martha's Boarding House as 1374 Seashell Lane. I'm still leaving this as a lack of communication between the producers of the show and the game integration and web teams.

I'm not volunteering to collect all of the WHOIS info here at this time. Somehow, the imminent demise of the game has reduced my motivation. (Or maybe it was the spinach hummus i had for lunch.)

It's not a collection of all the site whois info, but there's a list of the push businesses in the pd.com guide

business page
guide

edited to point to catherwood's excellent collection that I somehow missed earlier. It's in the reference section and posted as a sticky so that it stays on top. how did i miss it?

Another discrepancy between the show and the internet:

Highwater Trucking
4738 Sunrise Ave., Suite 232
is what I could see on BRB's clipboard;

Enoch's screenshot of highwatertrucking.com says
1344 Ashland Ave., Suite #256
