    Default 11 - Plaza and transmission center [- JO -]

    Hello !

    I've an idea for this rather central district. I wanted to reflect the very core of the guild : exchange of information and debate...

    So, I figured that that hill, right near the center of the city, could be the right spot for a big tower, which purpose could be to transmit information for the whole city (and why not, for the whole country ?)

    I made a sketch of what it may look like..

    And right down the hill, a big plaza, where every cartographer could come to debate, exchange informations and expose her/his maps (of course, that would be the right place for a big market)

    I also made a sketch... Of course, I'll have to discuss with Tonichiwa about that bridge proposal : a direct access from the castle to the tower of transmission

    Tell me what you think... especially if you think that I'm taking too much central buildings (in my mind, there would be anyway a lot of libraries, towers, plaza, everywhere in and out the city)...

    I'm all ears !

    This is fascinating!

    And no, not at all - you go ahead and cram as many Central Business District things in it as you can fit. It really is a central area

    A lot of people seem to be doing other things, so we could really do with some seriously impressive stuff - just like this

    I think it looks really good
    I love the plaza and market idea too.
    And the old J statue

    The center city is likely the oldest and would have many of the very prominent buildings in it.

    You're an inspiration, Jo. I think I need to rethink my own area, which is a bit simple in comparison at the moment! LOL!

    This is great Jo. I was thinking the exact same thing about the bridge being there. Thanks for sketching up your area in isometric side view so I can see what you had in mind. Sorry I haven't started mine yet, I've been very busy with real life stuff. Hopefully soon I will be able to start.

    No problem !
    I think the whole point of the project is that everyone goes at his/her own pace... and everyone is free to do whatever she/he wants inside the district !

    And no hurry for the bridge !
