This place is a depot located in [[Vice Port]] in [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City]]. In [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]], which is set by 1984, Phil resides in this depot after being "evicted" by the Cholo gang. Phil's depot is always the start point of all Phil Cassidy's missions for Victor Vance. The nearby Phil's Shooting Range, which hosts a shooting range, is actually an alternative stockhouse of Cassidy's gun artillery and ammunition (except Boomshines, which were stocked in his Depot and his warehouse in Little Havana). By 1986, on the happenings of [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]], it is in a state of disrepair, with grasses growing up from beneath the cracked cement. It is here that the fateful botched drug deal between [[Tommy Vercetti]] and the [[Vance Crime Family]] takes place most likely because of [[Victor Vance]]'s familiarity with the location. Later that year, the [[Counterfeit Syndicate]] use the depot as their landing spot when their agent with the printing plates makes her entrance into the city.

'''Phil's Depot''' is an area in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]]. It is, as the name states, a depot owned by redneck arms dealer [[Phil Cassidy]]. It is located in the southeast of [[Viceport]]. [[Phil Cassidy]], a so-called Vietnam veteran and gun expert, lives in one of the houses in the compound in [[1984]]. Phil's Depot contains numerous crates. He began living in his depot after he was "evicted" from his house on [[101 Bayshore Avenue]].
 
==Role In Missions==

==Grand Theft Auto: Vice City==
Phil's Depot still existed in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]]. However, it played a more minor role in missions than its prequel. It has also fallen into a state of disrepair, with grass growing up from beneath the cracked cement. In some time between the events of GTA Vice City and GTA Vice City Stories, Phil had moved into [[The Compound]] and had renamed it as [[Phil's Place]]. Despite that, it is a significant place in GTA Vice City's storyline.
 
In the game's [[Introduction (GTA VC)|introduction]], under the request of the [[Vance Crime Family]], a drug deal between the [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|Liberty City]] based [[Forelli Family]], represented by [[Tommy Vercetti]], [[Ken Rosenberg]], [[Harry]] and [[Lee]], and the [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City]] based [[Vance Crime Family]], represented by brothers [[Victor Vance|Victor]] and [[Lance Vance]] takes place on Phil's Depot, probably because of Victor's familiarity with the place. The deal was a drug deal, with Victor Vance trading two suitcases of 100% Pure Grain Colombian Cocaine for two million dollars from the Forelli Family. However, unknown to the two parties, [[Diaz's Hitmen|three men dressed in black]] were hiding behind the crates in Phil's Depot, ready to amnbush the deal. Just before the deal finished, the three men emerged from their hiding place and opened fire on the dealers, killing Victor, Harry and Lee. Lance fled in his [[Maverick]] while Tommy and Ken fled in Ken's [[Admiral]], leaving the cocaine and money behind, which gets picked up and handed to Diaz, who presumably used them for his own gains and leisure. It is because of this ambush that the events of GTA Vice City take place.
 
The depot plays another major role in the [[Print Works]] asset mission [[Hit the Courier]]. In the mission Tommy, under orders from [[Ernest Kelly]], goes to Phil's Depot to kill a courier carrying counterfeit money printing plates, who is arriving to Vice city via helicopter and is planning on landing at the depot, as the [[Counterfeit Syndicate]] use the depot as their landing spot when their agent with the printing plates makes her entrance into the city. Despite coming under heavy gunfire from the bodyguards of the courier, he successfully kills the courier and takes the plates back to the Print Works.
 
==Vehicles==
In 1984, Phil's "daisy", his yellow [[Walton]] (wiuthout any cargo) , is parked in front of the depot along with his [[Perennial]], which is fire-attractive (for no reason, it explodes without smoking) in Phil's Depot. In 1986, a [[Rumpo]] is parked in the depot and an [[Ingram Mac-10]] spawns next to it.
