Paradise Plaza is an area of Willamette Parkview Mall. It is directly connected to Leisure Park and the Entrance Plaza, but in the beginning of the game there is a gate blocking off that exit. There is also a secret route to Wonderland Plaza through the bathroom, which can be discovered once the scoop Out of Control is completed. The warehouse is located in this plaza which leads to the rooftop and finally the security room. This is where Frank first meets Kent Swanson, Sean Keanan and the True Eye cult.
