Beaver

This update is on the very quickly growing area of Avista known as Beaver, It is projected to become Avista's largest Residential area within the next few years. This is mostly due to the fact that it is wedged between Avista and Nearby city of Salem(Population 112,400), the fastest growing city in Avista's Metropolitan area and the second largest city after Avista. Beaver has a large Commercial area due to it being around the busiest interstate in the area and the fact that it is right next to Salems...

Medford

Someone rated this CJ a 1 This update will be covering the Neighborhood of Medford, one of the richest areas of the city(Not including Imperial Living, as its a private neighborhood), but some middle class can get into a few areas still. Medford has some of the largest parks of the entire Avista area. They weave throughout the neighborhoods... Medford is surrounded by the interstate aswell... Housing for 80% of Medford is Upper and Upper middle class, with 20 % for Middle and lower Middle class. This is...

School System

So this update is just a small quick one on the school system of Avista. Avista has always had a growing school system that is at a very high standard in most area's. Avista's Schools have always had a different opinion of what should be taught and when and why, but as there were only two districts they had to conform to the district rules. This caused many strike from teachers and anger from parents in many areas because each area of avista has different views. So in the mid 90's, Avista's school system...

Downtown Update

As promised, for this update you wll be seeing the main parts of downtown, although a big chunk of commercial services and offices are through shopping centers and office parks. You will also see some apartment buildings that integrated into downtown as it was lower elevation and cheaper for developers. "Core" "North Downtown" "Downtown Current Expansion West"

After the storm stopped and the city was half underwater, the alive citizens headed towards higher elevation. They concluded that some area was unfixable and had to be completly demolished, while other areas could be fixed but would also raise taxes as the insurance companies wouldn't pay to fix anything for the flood. but it was agreed. The areas that were still completely underwater were demolished, and the water was removed slowly over the course of a month through hard work and sunlight. The areas that...

Merry Christmas! Since Green is a christmas color, I thought I would start off my CJ with some "Green" Related issues. In the mid 80's, after the development rush of the past 20 years ended, the A.C.G.R.G came to be known. The A.C.G.R.G(Avista Community Green Restoration Group) was founded by Tabbitha Newman, who found that she couldn't find one speck of parkland or "Green Space" for miles in Avista, not even in her own backyard. Infact, in the entire metro area there were only two parks, one being in a...
