I think I will try to recover a lot of my downtown core. A 60x60 central park with a Gazebo for a band, fountain, chess area, restrooms, BBQ/picnic in the middle of Tic-Tac-Toe sidewalks. 60x30 lots on each side for the school, city hall, Market (book, grocer, theatre, bistro) and health care (Hospital & Spa). 30x30 corner lots for library, police, business centre, art gallery. A square of road goes around all that. The Park was getting decent, but I never did finish it. I loved the fountain. Too many people hung out in the bathrooms. What's with that? Most of the other lots were still fairly spartan with little more than the rabbit-hole buildings. I really want a custom school with a bunch of Generations playground equipment (also computer lab, art class, science lab etc) and a basketball net and 4 rabbit-hole rugs to facilitate entry.
On the other side of the road, a strip of dive bars on one side, the arena and wedding park, a rec centre (swimming pool, pool table etc, bowling alleyx2 and band practice stage) and on the forth, a museum (to display all those relics from WA), a nectary (no growing grapes, but cash register to buy them) a couple of lounges maybe. I hadn't decided. I was going to put the slum behind the dive bars on 12x15 or15x20 lots, no foundations to be pet friendly. There will be a high income residence area on a bluff overlooking the ocean/island on one corner. I also need other residences of various value.
I also need a place to put files that can be shared. Any suggestions?
