Goon Docks

The Goon Docks is a neighborhood of Astoria, Oregon, where the Goonies live.

Details
The Goon Docks is the poorer part of Astoria. Blue-collar workers such as plumbers and fishermen live here with their families. Those who live in the richer "Hillside" area of town look down on the citizens of the Docks, usually referring to them as "Goonies".

Involvement
Mr. Perkins wishes to purchase the entirety of the Docks in order to build a golf course over its location. He has purchased every house in the area, with the last one he is waiting on being the Walsh residence. The day before it is to be signed, the Goonies set off on one last adventure to find lost pirate treasure, in hopes of saving their home.

When the morning of the purchase comes, Irving Walsh begins to sign off on the paperwork to foreclose his home. However, after the discovery of a marble bag full of gemstones, the documents are torn up, with the promise that the little treasure that survived will be able to save every home in the Goon Docks.

Behind the scenes
The Goon Docks are a fictional neighborhood and do not exist in real life Astoria.
