As you may know, Oasis is one of the older cities in Minetown, predating Crecent, Frostgorod, Vegas, etc. Its construction, mostly paralleled that of Espero.
As time moved on, however, Oasis became a dinosaur as far as cities go; a ghost town.
Thus, I'm now putting my "life-savings" to good use by starting an Oasis reconstruction project.
All of the existing structures in Oasis were demolished, with the exception of the arena and consulate. (IanHales' house is still standing but will be removed soon.)
New oasis will be vastly larger. As you can see in the plan below.
Oasis will take a circular shape, containing four identical plazas each with a unique landmark building facing in the cardinal directions.
Roads will connect these plazas to the expanded Empire Plaza surrounding the former consulate of the Southern Empire.
These roads are, starting north and moving clockwise: Boreas, Eurus, Notus, and Zephyr.
Diagonal walls will form an X shape in the circle, dividing the city into four vectors;districts.
The outer wall will be circular, and have a circumference of ~980 blocks. This gives the walled in space an area of 73,583 blocks.
Outside the outer wall will be expansive gardens.
Currently, the site is being cleared and flattened, before construction can begin.
I need:
Laborers: to place dirt and flatten hills.
Materials:
-DIRT
-Glass
-Halfblock
-Smoothstone
-Coal
Please post here or contact me if you can assist the project by selling or donating materials. Also let me know if you can provide labor, either volunteer or paid.
