you follow the main story line and it will guide you there, it involves going underground

I did go to the underground metro station, but i broke the lock to the gate that has those mutants behind it and i couldn't find the key for it so i just decided to try and find the Galaxy News Station on the upper ground.

use the unlock console command

EDIT: so that you dont keep trying, there is no above ground way,... well i guess you could turn clipping off, but you would be WAY better off to just use the console command... hey the main story doesnt have any locked doors that are impossible to get open without lockpicking skill.... u sure you were doing the right quest?

I am on the 360 version, i broke the lock on the gate(from lockpicking) so i need to find a key to open it. But i couldn't find it so i am trying to just go to the GNR place.

There should be a metro station that is unlocked somewhere..... Check your map, it should have a way point on it.

You shouldn't need to.... I never had to open any locked gates there.. You can travel anywhere above ground, you may just have to go around any obstacles.

Did you go to the GNR place in the game? How do i get there? Because thats an objective i have, i put a place marker on it but its blocked all around my debris.

You have to take the Dupont Metro to Chevy Chase. then go top side and you'll find your way there.

Or... if the lock was there, I'd say do this..

Go and try and get to threw the Survival Guide. One chapter mission takes you to Rivet City.. And there is a dr there. She will have something about your dad.. I never went to th GNR building till I finished the Survival Guide.. Found out later I skipped over it all... lol

Is Chevy Chase behind the gate?

All right.. I can't say it as good as this guy can.. so here is a good Walkthrough that can help you out better then myself.. Just do Ctrl+f and type "fallowing in his footsetps" and it will bring you to it.
