Hi fellows, welcome to another entry for the CJ of the Bright City! Let's continue from where we left off and continue the trip around the bay.

FEEDBACK CORNER

Hellken Excellent work.

I am very proud for the fact that comments, albeit few, come from veterans who congratulate me. Thanks, I hope that you will like even more what is yet to come!

STONEHAVEN

A small neighborhood for itself, it's quite important because its location makes it the centerpiece of the bay, being adjacent to all those nearby. Shown in the picture below is the bridge to Hellfire Island, while just to the right is were Brightvale begins.

An aerial shot shows better its particular structure: for the most part the district is formed by the woods surrounding the railway & highway interchange which it is the main access point to the bay for those coming from the city center. On the right you can also see the second district I'm going to describe in this chapter.

The junction directly leads to Stonehaven's main square, so that it is always very busy. Often who remains in queue begins to think of calling Saul even for traffic problems!

Just north of the square is the important Stonehaven railway station, a crucial hub for connections between the bay and the rest of the city. In front of it is located the AMES tower (a.k.a. Aurora Metropolitan Services), the highrise that hosts the headquarters of public transport company.

LYON HILL

Just north of Stonehaven (you can glimpse it in the image above) begins a very long steep slope that in its initial part form the district of Lyon Hill, characterized by low houses.

THE BELVEDERE

This would be an insignificant area if its streets do not lead to one of the most beautiful spots in the entire city: a lookout built on top of the hill, for sure something that is worth a visit!

In addition to the rooftop terrace there also is a restaurant, two tennis courts, a prestigious gym and obviously there is plenty of parking lots.
