The Manhattan Project
Originally put together to help rebuild the the parts of Manhattan that were damaged in the Incident, a few of of it's key members stayed when the Containment Zone was created. Under the leadership of Blue Steel and Fracture The Manhattan Project works to maintain what city infrastructure they can, and are probably the only reason any of the city still has functional water mains. They also maintain an extensive map of the the cities Epsilon Zones and unstable buldings, which they make freely available. One of the only truly neutral groups in the city, most of the Warlords will leave their work parties unmolested. In return, the Project does not interfere in any of the ongoing conflicts. The Project controls several blocks around the former Mount Sinai Beth Israel Hospital, which they use as their Head Quarters. Considered neutral territory by most, they have a small under-supplied medical clinic, a market, and several bars. All are welcome to visit so long as they maintain the peace, but the Project turns away most who would try to live there claiming that they are at capacity. They have more then once hosted talks between various warlords. Key Individuals
