-In the [[anime]] series ''[[The Big O]]'', '''Paradigm City''' is a place with no [[memory]] any further back than forty [[year]]s. It is known that there are residents who have valued "memories" and are often exploited by the powers that be, i.e. the Paradigm corporation and its associated free agents. Some cataclysmic event happened and caused great shock to the [[human]] and [[robot|mecha]] residents, giving them [[amnesia]].

-It is clear from evidence shown in the series that Paradigm City is, in fact, [[New York City]] (or a reasonable facsimile thereof.)  Some of the evidence:
-* In episode 1 (''[[Roger the Negotiator]]''), as Roger is travelling to the site of the meeting with Beck, the [[World Trade Center]] can be seen in the distance.
-* Aerial shots of Paradigm echo the west side of [[Manhattan]] in terms of geography.
-* In episode 5 (''[[Bring Back My Ghost]]''), it is mentioned that Officer Fraizer fell into the [[Hudson River]].
-* In episode 12 (''[[Enemy Is Another Big!]]''), one of the battle scenes is supposedly fought at [[JFK airport]] and is mentioned as JFK point by Dan Dastun.
-* In episode 17 (''[[Leviathan]]''), the remnants of the Coney Island amusement park and the Cyclone roller coaster are clearly shown.
-* In episode 19 (''[[Eyewitness]]''), an android killer is shown wearing a [[New York Yankees]] baseball cap.
-* In episode 20 (''[[Stripes (Paradigm City)|Stripes]]''), [[Angel (Big O character)|Angel]] finds herself drawn to the ruins of [[Grand Central Terminal]].
-* In several episodes Roger pays Big-Ear for his services with what would appear to be American currency.
-*Whenever he visits Big Ear, Roger drives over what appears to be the [[Brooklyn Bridge]]
