Hello! This is my very first CJ (and first entry) so I guess I should get things started. Something to point out, though, is that I have a lot of schoolwork going on so entries may not be frequent.

In the 2050s Ontario saw a giant boom in industry and people and needed somewhere to put them, right? Okay. Canada decided on an enclave on the Great Slave Lake in NWT. The result: Aspen County (I know Canada doesn't have counties, but I hate the term "administrative region"). For the continuation of the CJ, I will be developing different towns and cities in the county. So, with no further ado, some pictures to get the ball rolling!

This is McDonald Island, a private workers community for CHAWS (Canada Hydro And Wind Association), the company that owns the giant hydroelectric plant upriver.

This is a picture not of the truck, but of the tightly-packed "metropolis" in the distance otherwise known as South Aspen, which will be one of the main focuses in the upcoming entries.

And finally, a photo of downtown residential South Aspen, as seen from some scaffolding of the new CHAWS management office (currently under construction).

See you next time!

Very New Urbanist in that last shot, well put together.

This might be a silly question but does C:S have ploppable flora?

If you mean  plopping trees and plants across the map at will, yes it does have.
