We're continuing the expansion of the Massachusetts county of Easthaven, starting an all-new realistic, historical port city on a major island next to Chowder Bay! We implement a basic starting layout for the port, major industries, an old mixed-use downtown, a hillside row-house district, low-density residential suburbs, and train freight line infrastructure. Hope you enjoy!

You can double click with the same road type to add a node instead of building a road then deleting, saves time and is very useful if there are buildings already zoned on that road

@milesmoncur4276 8 месяцев назад

If you want this to be as realistic as possible, I would get rid of the super tall mountains because the area of Massachusetts is not mountainous.

@Khotetsu 8 месяцев назад

Yeah, the only part of Massachusetts that has real mountains is the western end where the Appalachian Mountains run through.

@sergeantjones12 8 месяцев назад

suggestions for names and history: downtown can be named Ventura Bay- named in 1912 after the original name Ventura. founded in 1790 as a small trading post (industrial area). Eventually the small trading post expanded to become Ventura Bay, the small downtown city. during the late 1800s, the industrial area expanded and new housing was needed to meet the worker demand. developer Joseph Cambridge developed Cambridge Pass in 1871 (row housing development) to sustain the worker demand. this is all my brain can make, so if you want to use it that’s great but if not consider it

For Sunnyside Downs.... Maybe The Cannery? When the town first was founded and fishing was the main product that drove the town growth, a cannery was founded up on the hill by the bridge. It has since ceased to be, the but industry that is there was redeveloped from the old canning factory.

@PurelyAJD 8 месяцев назад

Love this build so far! One thing that could make it seem even more realistic, as someone from that area, would be eliminating the tall mountains. In reality the tallest peaks in this area are no more than 250 feet (76m). That, and they are few and far between.

@JohnFromAccounting 8 месяцев назад

To fit with the New England style, the city could be renamed to something from the south of England. I think something from Devon like "Seaton" would feel right. Like with a lot of settlements in New England and in other British colonies, towns were often named after the hometown of an important settler. The real life Seaton is just around the corner from Lyme Regis, and is a historic fishing village turned into a holiday destination.

@HarbourmasterJay 7 месяцев назад

always enjoying your content, good mix of speed builds and very informative building commentary, so its good to learn some best practices and mod usage from you, even though car-centric cities arent really my cup of tea. I thought this was the first episode of this city, so i havent seen it yet and i am not sure but i think you planted lots of trees with anarchy on and in some places, it actually looks a bit too dense for me now, for example where you did the first highway connection from the bridge. Watching the video while writing this comment, i think what makes it look a bit unnatural to me might be the fact that its still all grass below it but with such a dense canopy, i wouldnt expect any of it to grow there due to lack of sunlight and rather expect some brown-greenish undergrowth. Gonna check tonight, if making the surface below such a dense anarchy forest actually looks better. one tip for a bit more realism when designing port areas is to check the water current and from where the water actually flows to actually determine where and into what direction a long mole or quay leading into the sea should be placed.

Ok so I know you're doing an island and not the actual cape but here's an interesting fact about cape infrastructure. There are three main roads 28, 6, and 6a. For most of the cape these three highways run parallel.( Except in Bourne and falmouth. ) where they run parallel the three routes are connected by 3 numbered routes. 130 , 128 and such. So yea never get lost on cape again.

Hey Infra, maybe you want to get the Legacy Flavour mod to get rid of the white flashbang on every info screen? In your zoning montage I noticed you constantly closing the info panel to get rid of the white overlay while switching between zoning types. I also really like it because you can the opacity of zoned and unzoned tiles and it makes it easier to see what's going on under all those zones. Idk, maybe you already know about it and have a reason to not use it but I figured I mentioned it just in case you may find it useful :)

@maxverkuil6237 8 месяцев назад

I would name the town/city Harrison. In total there are 21 towns in the USA named after the 9th president. The city was seperated from Easthaven in 1855, fourteen years after his death in office and named the town after him. It was built because in the area, due to an increase in trade from Europe with the United States, there was a shortage of workers and the island of Easthaven was getting full. It is a little over an hour from Boston and, together with Easthaven, used to compete with boston over what would be the states intellectual capital, as it used to have a lot of knowledge during its most wealthy era in the end of the 19th century from its trading activities and thus wealth. It lost the fight and most of the intellectuals had moved to Boston for MIT/Harvard but a smaller liberal arts college called Harrison University still remains. It also grew to be a suitable place for tourism as it is the only place where the sea meets the mountains in MA and still has very reasonable temperatures and a beautiful fall season. Something like this would suit perfectly in my mind!

Having fire come across the bridge into the harbor town is ridiculous... How about Clam Harbor for the name of the new town?

As someone who grew up in Massachusetts, I’m loving this series. The only thing killing me is how mountainous the map is. Massachusetts, especially the coastal area that you are taking inspiration from, is quite flat. Maine and New Hampshire are more mountainous but not near the coast

@Infrastructurist 8 месяцев назад

Good point, thanks!

@RIP_Greedo 8 месяцев назад

Tbh this setting would fit better as an analogue the Maine coast. Lots of islands, more hills, towns with ports. Cape cod is all beach towns, very spread out, totally flat. Everything on the cape is 30 mins away it feels like. There is not a lot of industry there either. The biggest town is Hyannis, which is smaller than this city is already.

@honour9711 8 месяцев назад

I was looking around the names of towns/cities in Massachusetts and found a a city called Plymouth which is a coastal city on the southeastern coast of the UK, and scouting the area I found a massive headland which your city also has called Rame, on this headland there is a church called St.Germanus Rame church which I has a graveyard at the back too and you can use the cemetery to make it look like a old historical heritage site or to make it unique to your city it can also have a castle if or when you unlock that. 😊

@TheBladedMarshmallow 8 месяцев назад

As someone from Plymouth (UK), this is such a great idea to incorporate a bit of history from my real life city and somewhat unknown part of the country! Fun fact, the first colony in the US was the Plymouth colony in Massachusetts, as the first settlers sailed from Plymouth UK aboard the Mayflower. Would love to see this colonial history and English inspired place-names incorporated into the build!

Suggestion for name: I think the massachusetts city of New Bedford would be perfect to make this new city. New Bedford is in the area you’re modeling after. It has a rich history in whaling which made it the richest city in the world at one point. New Bedford also has had a textile factor and railway in its history; having its own time zone before universal time was established. It’s a very cool city and the downtown resembles what you have already. I think New Bedford is a perfect fit.

Renaming Barlow Springs. A Real Estate Developer who was born and raised in Mission Hill Boston wants to retire with one last residential development project. A life time of living in single row homes has brought inspiration to his new neighborhood plan. After finding the perfect hillside in a new up and coming town in East Haven County, he closes on the land and begins to develop. Being a life long Mission Hill resident he has become a Boston Red Sox fanatic and is also a season ticket holder at Fenway Park. This sparks an idea for a name! Fenway Hill. He can’t help but think that incorporating his old passion with his new journey would be the perfect retirement plan for him! Keep up the great work!😁

Because the branch of the highway going through Easthaven would be a spur, naming convention in Massachusetts would have it named 28A, like how 6A is a smaller local road compared to US-6 running parallel to 28 on Cape Cod.
