Welcome to the CIty of Iron Shores!

City: Iron Shores

Mayor: FourteenRocket/14Rocket

Population: 61,500

Former Trading Port of New Washington

City Specialization: Formally: Trade/Metals/Oil/Mining, Present: Tourism

Iron Shores was named after the rich iron deposits that once laid under its soil. At about the turn of the century, the iron deposits and oil that made the city prosperous ran dry, and the heavy industry polluted the land killing the surrounding vegitation, and sickened many people. At about the time the mines were running dry, some enviromentalists moved into the city and sped up the demise of the industry that made the city a major trading hub of New Washington. The mines were quickly shut down, and to prevent economic collapse, the city soon began a development plan that was to reclaim the abandon land, and just after a few months after each mine shut down, the city began to develop over the land, and in some cases, letting nature reclaim the land to reduce pollution to safe levels foe people to settle on. 20 years later, the city is begining to bounce back, taking advantage of the beaches and tourism it recieves from the surrounding area.

Iron Shores only a few decades before the industry sector failed.

Wow, how have I missed this?? :O

 

You have many great setting for your images and use excellent photo "lenses" at the same time.  I can only imagine where you'll take these cities when the custom content starts spilling out. :)
