I love small lots. I’m always happy when one or two was included in the world. But this world might have too many small lots. The library lot is really too small.

I know everybody always complains about the food carts. But the shell that has tables outside should have definitely had a food cart inside, like in Tartosa.

I wish that the couch that is by that abandoned bridge maybe had a fire pit or a stereo. Some sort of activity for our teens to do.

They definitely dropped the ball by not having a lot by the pier area. The other lots just feel too far from it to be the drop in point.

I thought the library looked terribly small, but I think it's the design that's making it look small with the too large staircase. But the world looks very pretty, love the picnic area by the water and all the different paths through the woods. Think we might be getting cars soon because of all the parking spaces and gas station in the neighbourhood.

I think the problem with the library is that it's too tall for the lot it's on so it looks compressed and awkward, especially as it is in the middle of an open area, like a skinny skyscraper in a cornfield. Since the creator wanted a skylight that is taller than the roof, a foundation and two storey windows, the whole thing is about 3.5 stories tall.

I think I would be able to tolerate the small lots more if the town area was actually dense, but all the lots are spread out with a lot of room around them. I would have preferred it if the suburban neighbourhood was laid out in a more gridded fashion, with houses and gardens backing on to each other, like the quarry neighbourhood in Eco Lifestyles, but with the more middle class houses of High School Years.

The superficial thing that annoys me though is how specific lots and lot names (such as the ThrifTea store) are mentioned in the neighbourhood descriptions.
