So many of the major English-speaking cities invariably have a neighborhood called Hyde Park. Twilight is no exception, though in this case it was named after the book, and is officially recorded as Jekyll and Hyde Park. Nobody calls it that, though.
Hyde Park is normally a quaint older neighborhood, filled with large stone buildings. There's a small college here with an underused observatory, the eponymous park in a central square, and heavy immigration over the years has turned about a third of the neighborhood into a Chinatown of sorts.
Off on the far end of the suburb there's an office building. It's an eerie, dark building that's clearly evil. The anagram of its name is "evil, inc." for one thing. For another, there are a lot of lights on and people working after hours. What could be more evil than making employees work late?
