Nautilus stage one

Nautilus is the next large city of Maritine Island. The city was founded not long after the city of Pelikanas. Nautilus is a planned city and is being developed in large stages; the first stage has just recently been completed. The first stage included the CBD and some suburbs.

Tourism in Nautilus

Nautilus is a large tourism destination. The city has many attractions. One of the most popular tourist attractions is the sea lion and dolphin tours. For a small amount, people have the chance to take a ride on one of the charter boats out to the sea lion colony and see the beautiful sea creatures. Another activity coming soon which is expected to be very popular is a scenic drive around the Livonia Ranges, which are right behind Nautilus. A cruise ship port is also located in Nautilus and brings many tourists every month.

Nautilus and Pelikanas

Ever since residents started to occupy each of the cities, Nautilus and Pelikanas have been in competition. Pelikanas residents boast about the higher population, whereas Nautilus can fight back by boasting its taller buildings. 6 years ago, two friends noticed the competition between the two cities and came up with a plan to use it as an advantage. The two cities would host a sporting competition every 4 years. They told both the Nautilus City Council and the Pelikanas City Council about their plan and both councils loved the idea. The councils talked between each other and decided the first competition would be hosted in Pelkianas as the new sporting stadiums had recently been completed. The competition will take place very soon this year.

Architecture in Nautilus

Nautilus City consisted of small boring buildings in the CBD for a very long time, until some foreign developers proposed a small amount of tall towers for the city. Nautilus city council went for the idea, having tall towers in the city would attract tourists as they often like to stay in the largest city. However, there was one tower the city wasn’t sure about. The Aquatic Tower, designed by Mohammed Hajad, would be the tallest on maritime Island if it was built, but the bold colours would certainly stand out. The city took a bold risk and granted the proposal. The tower now dominates the city skyline.

Part of the Livionia Ranges are behind Nautilus. The council plans to cover the mountains with tree's and build a scenic road along the ranges soon.

You've got cool roundabout fillers but maybe you should get rid of this prison in the middle of the city. Good job!
