The Village District is located on the west end of Neighbourhood Island and gets its name from the relatively low height of its buildings when compared to the towering behemoths found everywhere else on the island.

It is the island's smallest district and is composed of mainly row/townhouses and tenements although a small section of the midtown financial district is located within its borders.

It is the oldest district on the island and one of the few refuges from the sun-blocking skyscrapers covering the majority of Neighbourhood Island.

Great pictures. Is the greenish hue a personal choice or does it have something to do with Viborg's atmosphere and star?

Thank you very much for the comments guys! I appreciate it.

[b]packersfan[/b]: I usually make a colour filter for ever chapter to give each entry its own unique feel. I decide the filter based on the dominant colours and atmosphere of the pictures. But the observation on the atmospheric composition of Viborg and the light from its star is very cool and clever. I've never though about it that way.

Thank you for the compliments guys!

[b]Alex_Lukian[/b]: I chose to set my CJ on the fictional planet of Viborg just to give my cities a more interesting historical backdrop.
