Hola! I think I read through fairly carefully, but I just want to make sure I get the sinkhole thing right before I start. Is the central lake a sinkhole, so there won't be cliffs really? Like, if you're walking, you're good, and then next step you're 100 feet down and swimming? Or more like, you're walking, you're good, and then you're stumbling down a steep cliff towards the water below?

I guess a simpler way of putting it would be, are buildings next to the sinkhole lake on a steep slope, or on flat ground next to a sheer drop?

Thanks! Sorry for confusion

Here's a little image I made to convey what I had been thinking.
That said... your area was more like the ground had slowly collapsed into the sinkhole and it is more gradual of a descent, except over near your border with section 9... which is still steep and high.
Does that make sense?

Perfect. Absolutely perfect! That actually helps solidify what I've had swirling around in my head since I went and asked myself, "What is this district about, and what does it do?" Thanks very much!

cheers,

Cricket needs at least 450' diameter with a minimum of 210' and a maximum of 270' from the centre of the pitch. It doesn't have to be circular though.

Sorry! I can just about fit a football sized stadium in my patch and still have room for a tavern and a densely packed but reasonably well-to-do residential area, that trails of to being a little less prestigious further away from the waterfront

Here's a fun little diversion...
Here's the sketch, on 4 pieces of paper, that was the starting point for this city.

That is an interesting configuration of paper. I have to ask, did the idea start on a smaller scale and the fit the paper to the inflated scale? Or did you start with one piece of paper and it just grew out of necessity from there?

This original document must at once go the archives of the city and be preserved at all cost !
