I've got the buildings just about done! Now they all have hatching, doors, and are standing on pylons. I realized that I forgot to put chimneys on the buildings, so I added many behind the buildings you see.

I have also tried to address Lingon's comment about variation by adding some small islands in the northeast. Did it work? See any other places where I could do the same if it helps?

Coming next: those buildings probably need windows. The roads need paving. The trees will be soon. And I'm thinking of adding little texture marks to the river around the leading edges of the islands, like around the rock in the lake in Gallaston in this map.
