    I am liking this map. Reminds me of a city map I envisioned for my old campaign world around 1980 or so.

    There has got to be something cliched about a city map that NK was thinking about back in 1980. I just can't quite put my finger on it...

    OK, here you go, the original is not of the greatest quality. 'You can crop off the compass rose'
    and leave out the box in the center.

    Thanks this is much appreciated , I was beyond frustration trying to get this to work.

    That was actually harder than I thought, as the section you want filled isn't a real arc section!

    This is the best I could manage -

    FYI, the way I did this was :
    - start with a square section of your map holding the fountain and maze area, centered on the circular roads.
    - mark one area the maze should fill (inset from the roads by an equal space around) as solid blocks.
    - run a polar-rectangular conversion, then scale the result be 4 horizontally.
    - fit the maze to the areas using scaling, and curve bends.
    - run rectangular-polar on the distorted maze.
