After its most prominent residents left: Hank Aaron, Ted Turner, Jeff Foxworthy, the guy who invented Coca-Cola, the magician, Jane Fonda, etc., the remainder quickly evolved into mermaids, claiming this happened due to the caffeine in Coca-Cola, but might also be due to other additional factors, such as radiation. In the episode "The Deep South", the characters ask Fry how Atlanta was an American city in the 20th century; however, he believes that it was just an airport and that they had a place where you could buy nuts. This refers to the fact that although many people travel to Atlanta, almost all of them are just making a flight connection to another city. One of the mermaids mention the historical monuments including Turner Field and the Coca-Cola Bottling Plant, and the airport. The Braves still exist, but they are now a "third-rate symphony" according to Dr. Zoidberg, though there appears to be a Lost City of Atlanta Braves blernsball team. Hank Aaron XXIV, the worst blernsball player of all time until Leela, wore a Braves uniform with a trident replacing the tomahawk. This poses a continuity issue as Prof. Farnsworth insinuates in "The Deep South" that they had discovered the city, although it is possible that, like Area 51, people know of the city but they don't all know where it is, they could be saying they have found it, but not the first people to do so.

Stop 'n Drop Suicide Booths :First featured in "Space Pilot 3000".
The ubiquitous suicide booths serve the death needs of New New Yorkers. After he escapes from Applied Cryogenics, Fry mistakes one for a telephone booth. He meets Bender trying for a "two-fer"(which he cheats with a quarter on a string). Modes of death are "Quick and Painless" or "Slow and Horrible".
Taco Bellevue Hospital :First featured in "Bender Gets Made".
In the show's time period, Bellevue Hospital has sold its name and apparently its services to fast food chain Taco Bell. This could be a reference to , in which Taco Bell was the only winner of the "franchise wars". There is a sign outside that says "Normal, Healthy Baby? Super-Size It For 49¢!", in the episode 'The Cyber House Rules'. Also, one of the doctors that work in the hospital is the chihuahua that was featured in Taco Bell ad campaigns from 1997 to 2000. His diagnosis for one patient who questions her condition is "Grande".
Titanic :First featured in "A Flight to Remember".
Commanded by Twenty-Five Star General Zapp Brannigan (and later in a field promotion by Lieutenant Kif Kroker), the Titanic is the largest, most luxurious space cruise ship ever built. She was christened with Leonardo DiCaprio's head. It looks like the original Titanic except that it's encased in an airtight bubble and has space-going engines. By the way, in the casino, the house limit is three do-overs. The bar is tended by iZac. The ship has six levels: 1st class, where Professor Farnsworth, Hermes and LaBarbara Conrad, and Doctor Zoidberg stayed; 2nd class, where the quintessential space tourists with screaming children stay; Steerage, with the Irish straight out of the movie Titanic; then comes the Laundry level, the Bowels of the Ship, where men are shoveling coal into the engines; and finally, the Fiesta Deck, where the rest of the Planet Express crew was bunked.
Trump Trapezoid ::First featured in "Hell Is Other Robots".

WNYW ::First featured in "When Aliens Attack".
A 21st century New York television broadcast station. It was transmitting Single Female Lawyer when Fry accidentally spilled beer on the console, shorting it out. One-thousand year later, Lrrr was enraged when his show was cut off, and demanded to see the end. He rated the ad-libbed show a "C+".
Zapp Brannigan's Bedroom :First featured in "Loves Labors Lost in Space".
Captain (Later twenty-five star General) Zapp Brannigan maintains a love-shack rumpus room aboard the Nimbus. The room is covered in candles and velour - lots of velour. Brannigan himself sleeps on a heart-shaped, motorized hover-bed. He and Leela had relations in a weak moment of pity.
