    The developers wanted to build on the main road and land values here were low and it was near the town unfortunately not my decision as mayor. Enviromentalists took it to court all the way in Belsaire and it unfortunately was found to be acceptable to build on the marsh where rare birds leave.

    cleaner475: glad you like it and thanks for following my cj since the start

    granto93: thanks

    At the moment guys I'm thinking of making another region still Ratislava either more coastline or some island settlements off the coast

    What do you think would be the best direction for the cj when I have filled this region? I want to leave it up to you as Im not really that sure

    Keep the comments coming

    One of the first times I've seen a region find an island...looks cool...and I can't wait to see what will be done...tourist development or even housing...hotels to casinos...looks interesting...

    Also it may be simple where the motorway crosses the river,but you made it appear perfectly level!

    Great job!

    An overview of the island it looks very scandonavian I think

    newcity16nov00118319781li7.jpg

    Some dangerous rocks which will need a lighthouse near it so ships won't crash

    newcity22nov00118319783qt1.jpg

    Some mountinous terrain

    newcity26aug01118319787op8.jpg

    OK guys this is sourthern Oaken Island

    Hope you enjoy 10,000 live here and its mostly farming although there are scattered industrial estates. People who want to come here have to come by cargo ship as no airport or ferry has been established yet. Although a ferry terminal is being developed near Belsaire

    southoakenisland15may19zo6.jpg

    This is the town of Henk on the southern tip of the island

    southoakenisland1jul191rs0.jpg

    The town is overlooked by the observatory

    southoakenisland8jun191ed7.jpg

    This is where it all began

    southoakenisland15jun19uw3.jpg

    The port surronded by industry and landfill. This also serves the farms in the south of the island

    southoakenisland20jul19rf8.jpg

    A lot of lorrys are going to the north of the island where another large settlement is being built

    southoakenisland30may19jf8.jpg

    This is some of the most priced housing on the coastline

    southoakenisland20jun19wf3.jpg

    A small settlement and some farming

    southoakenisland24jun19kn1.jpg

    A larger settlement away from henk

    southoakenisland3jul191mk2.jpg

    More farming

    southoakenisland4may191qn8.jpg

    southoakenisland7may191vu1.jpg

    An overview of the island hope you see the connection between the pics

    Next update tomorow maybe but if not then a couple of weeks probably as I have work experience next week

    I hope you enjoyed this update. This has actually been my favourite city tile so far with the terraforming and the towns and villages I've built

    the downtown will be in the north where there is large amount of flat land. There will also be a airport there. I would only expect medium rise buildings and one or two hi rise as the town will only be 50k at most

    Thanks for the comment
