Addison Harbor
-=|A D D I S O N H A R B O R|=-
Life in Addison Harbor has been progressing nicely. What was planned to be purely a industrial town changed and people decided that the plains area of Addison Harbor (AH) would be a lovely place to live and petitioned the city council to open up some land so that they could buy it and develop it for residential purposes.
While at the moment that seems like a good idea, what the people don't realize is that there are already plans on the drawing board that have been approved that would bring the industrial sector right up to the front steps of the new residential homes.
01
Due to the mass amount of Harbor shipping traffic, the state level Government asked (actually asked would have been nice, more like told) the city of Addison Harbor that they must have a coast guard outlet in the city. The blueprints were sent to Mayor Silvermans office for his final stamp of approval and as you can see, that is exactly what he did. The area of land has been requisitioned by the city, buildings are scheduled for demo, and the new coast guard building and piers will be built shortly.

Even though Addison Harbor started out predominantly as an industrial harbor town, you could walk along the harbor at night without escort and not worry about getting mugged. But something changed one day and nobody was able to pin point what it was, but it was the same time that the bikers came to town so most people assume they have something to do with it. The mayor and City Planner really aren't convinced that the bikers have anything to do with it, but rather blame it on the weakening Addison Harbor economy. The traffic has been getting worse and worse with the increasing harbor industrial complexes going up what seems almost daily, and the City Planner has been given the task to improve traffic in Addison Harbor. I don't suspect it will be that difficult if I can get the train station board of directors to approve our plans to expand their network.
Note: This is the first time that I've ever seen a motorcycle riding around in the game.

The Evergreen corporation has it's own shipping yard in Addison Harbor. It is the primary source of transporting goods in and out of the harbor. It's CEO (James Evergreen) was really displeased however when the city council approved the building plans for another large shipping and transport company (VLS) in the vacant lot right next to them. Evergreen has threatened to just shut down operations in Addison Harbor, but Mayor Oren Silverman shows no signs of concern as he knows that a new shipping and transport company will gladly take their place and or he can make more room for more industrial and have the new shipping company that is currently building their yard will take up the slack and put on more ships if need to be take up the extra shipping business.

And, although train transportation is on the decline, Mayor Silverman is more than confident that the old train station can handle any shipping needs should Evergreen actually leave the city. Mayor Silverman has been pestering the train station to expand it's operations into the proposed residential areas so that new traffic can be held to a minimum as the city streets are already backed up with traffic of all the people commuting into Addison Harbor from nearby areas and would like to keep the traffic impact to a minimum. The train stations board of directors are still working out the logistics of a plan to do so, but are concerned about the costs of building a new passenger terminal in the harbor area. We'll have to see where this leads to.
