The houses could use a little more variety though, but that is not a major problem.

I would, but there are no other 19th Century Houses out there, so I'm stuck with a lack of variety (I knew someone was going to say that, and I did try to find more houses, but I couldn't )

Also it should be pointed out, many working class houses in cities in the 19th century were built in large blocks and with little variety in style. Not until the Arts and Crafts movement and "catalog houses" did unique home design in middle-class housing become the norm.

You might try and find some of Mattb's catalog houses from the 30's, unless you do want to stay strictly 19th century?

Anyway, excellent update. I look forward to more.

Just to try to bring back a small amount of momentum for Shayden, who will be back during summer vacation, stay tuned!

You know you piss me off when you say you can't make good cities, because I'm really looking forward to this

have you though of applying it to be an Adonian World Heritage Site?? it looks TOTALLY AWESOME

Welcome back to Spartanburgh! As you can see nothing has changed in the past 5 months. Spartanburgh is still a
culture infested city.

The city is still beautiful and historic, these houses have existed since the 1700's (but they have been renovated and repaired a
few times to prevent unsafe conditions)!

The school is still the same. But the crops haven't grown in yet, why you ask? Well, it's because Spartanburgh's growing season is
from June to October. Some years it starts earlier, but this year isn't the case.

Rain is common in Spartanburgh from May to September. Usually at least 1/4 to 1/3 of the month there's rain.

Usually the rain ruins most plans for the day unless people plan on shopping.

Just because Spartanburgh is an old city, doesn't mean it's commercial businesses can't be modern. Spartanburgh has many
businesses, because usually women go to buy groceries and clothes and children hang out in the stores to talk to friends (which also
bring in the occasional dollars)


Okay thanks for reading, hope you enjoyed!

Welcome to Spartanburgh!

Spartanburgh is a small 19th Century town, which is officially an Adonian World Heritage Site. Spartanburgh was built during Shayden's major expansions in the later 18th Century, after the Colonie's War. The town currently has a population of around 100,000 people, who to this day enjoy living in the same houses which settlers lived in during the Shayden expansion.


This quaint neighborhood has been populated for over 2 centuries, and by the looks of it these houses can hold at least a century more of citizens.




Beside the 19th Century Houses are some of the newer house built shortly after the expansion hype left Spartanburgh area. Crops help
feed the population and produce money for the farmers who worked hard to make the crops.


The town is lively even at night, this town almost never falls silent.




Some of the more recent houses built in Spartanburgh. These houses were built in the late 19th Century when the cars were first being made in Shayden.


A local gas station used for fueling cars. Bio-fuel is offered as well as Shayden is attempting to slowly end its dependency on nonrenewable resources, which also opens many new markets for new businesses to pursue.


The nightshots never get old for me...


This is the local school, where children go to learn. The soccer field is for recreation and gym class.


Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoyed the update! Hopefully see you next time!

That is so cool!

Oh wow, that's a very good update

That school is the perfect location for a slice of life manga. It also looks like getting lost in the corn mazes would be a time honored tradition in town. Hell Id do it, looks like fun!

You're also the first person I've seen replicate an American town so well.
