Jamaica Plain Mission "Bug" Isn't a Bug

[Jurassic Fart 1]

While clearing Faneuil Hall of Super Mutants, a notice popped up on my screen that I should Find the Treasures of Jamaica Plain. I went into my Pip-Boy and activated the mission, and the marker appeared on the map…on my current position inside Faneuil Hall, not on Jamaica Plain, which I still have not yet discovered (so, it should appear on my map as a hollow icon, solid icons denoting discovered destinations).

The marker does not appear on my HUD.

I've looked online, but could find no help; maps showing the location of Jamaice Plain have ONLY that icon labeled—the other icons are unlabeled, giving me no relevant frame of reference, so I have no idea where to go.

you need to go out side .. i think .. maybe ..

It's pointing at the exit to the building probably. Jamaica Plain is Southeast of Doamond City.

No, I went outside, thinking exactly that. Plus, if I was supposed to go outside, the marker would have appeared onscreen on the exit door to Faneuil Hall, and it didn't. The marker STILL appears on my position, and is still absent from the HUD.

I still have no ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ idea where the feckin' Hell Jamaica Plain is.

Maybe someone could tell me what bearing I should take to find it. North (0°)? East (90°)? South (180°)? West (270°)? 45° (NE)? 135° (SE)? 225° (SW)? 315° (NW)? It could literally be ANY bearing from Faneuil Hall!

Sorry—I just noticed your direction. I don't know how I missed it. I'll go scouting in that area. Thanks!

And,
A bit North West of Quincy Ruins.
East of Malden Medical Center (I think it's Malden).

Thanks, Solomon. I'm not playing any more tonight; right now I'm drinking beer and binge-watching Grey's Anatomy on Netflix—I never play when I'm drinking. I'll check it out tomorrow. With your help, I'm pretty sure I can find it. I'll post to let all know when I find it. That way, anyone else experiencing the same problem can read the answer they need.

malden is north of the river ..

Jamaica Plain. It's a magical place.

HUD bugs abound, with or without Power Armor. Sometimes getting out or in (if you're not) sorts them out.

I finally[fallout.wikia.com] found a map—after discovering JP is not east of Malden—that will lead me there. It is due east of West Roxbury Station, southwest of University Point.

Thanks, guys!

You may have found a note on a body etc. which indicates JP treasure. Bless all who have die there.

Thanks, everyone. I just now was able to figure out why the marker appeared over my position and not over Jamaica Plain town hall: The marker doesn't appear over the town hull until after you loot Carl Everett's body. The marker floats over the player until then.

This is one of the more difficult to follow missions for that reason. I think I looted Carl Everett's body too early.

Thanks for pointing that out. I'll make sure I verify my information before I post an answer next time.

…and Malden is a transportation Center. Milton General Hospital is due west-northwest of Jamaica Plain.

Yeah, you're right. It's where you end up taking down SinJin and his gang in the Silver Shroud quest line.

and Malden medical center is infested with supr-mutants..

fun place to go every two or three days ..
