Rochnan,
It adds a little different flavor to that area of the city. Thank you for pointing me in that direction.
Weery,
Thank you for the comment. It has become a much bigger project than I had anticipated and I have learned quite a bit along the way.

The City of Melekhir 9.2 (Central City) Large View 22x24.png
Thought I'd give you a wide view of the map. You can see how I've stripped away most of what lies outside the central area of the city. Still haven't zeroed-in on the boundaries for this view. The rivers are a natural break point for the map and would make blending the pieces together easier, but I am not sure CC3+ has enough muscle left to map out all within the rivers. I will continue mapping as I hold my breath. (If you hear a loud thud, don't be alarmed, that just me hitting the floor as I blackout from lack of oxygen.)

Added a bit more. I am working along Broad Street and intend to continued construction along the road until I arrive at the East Gate.
The brownish "V" shaped building by the Old Gate on Broad Street to the west of where the canal comes off the lake is a stables. The blue building is a tavern and inn.
Hi Texas Jake,
I like how Broad Street looks out over a lake (if the trees don't obscure it). It looks like a great spot to have food stalls and the like on a sunny summer day. It could have musicians performing, and people strolling past. Yeah...that sounds lovely
And not long after reading that, I hear a dull thud. Luckily, it was one of my cats jumping off of something.Originally Posted by Texas Jake
Rochnan,
Maybe your cat was reading my post and was empathizing with me.
Maybe I will grab my guitar and sit under one of those trees by the lake and play a tune or two. Would you care to join me?
Added more buildings as I work the south side of Broad Street heading east. Redid some buildings to the NE of the large pinkish building with the walled courtyard to narrow the street.

My latest installment. Looking at it now, not sure if the courtyard are with the two garden area will remain as it is now. I am in an area where spacing will be opening up as I near the wall as can be seen on many historic maps. I will have to wait to see how it looks as the area gets built out.

Saturday. Sleep late, several cups of coffee and some map making. Added the Broad Street Market Square. Merchants gather here an offer more exotic and upscale wares. The blue building that borders the market square is one of the cities finest inns. Haven't decided on a name for it, yet.

Slowly, I am closing in on the east gate.
