In the past several days, I’ve created a “Northside” for VWX Town, composed of about 5 buildings including the 2 pictured below. These are Norum and SoSo West galleries, first seen in Pietmond, Otaki Gorge. Still within each is artwork from Julie Sadler and Mike Casey respectively. Original openings of these galleries are described here and here. Dr. Casey’s interview I conducted shortly afterwards is still found on my old blog as well. I need to re-read it again myself sometime soon.
Northside is basically made up of a 2048 parcel of land I decided to rent from Beetle Bailey. Unfortunately I do not have terraforming rights nor the ability to create linden plants, which are indeed handicaps. When Central and Westside go, certainly this part will be deleted as well, leaving only Southside on the other side of town eventually. Will this even come in two weeks? Or will it be delayed until October or perhaps beyond? I’m hedging toward the latter now still.
Check out my neighbor’s nice pics of Northside and VWX Town as a whole in the meantime!
As Veyot’s pictures also show, a general store (Clockwork) and a large tower I’m tempted to call the “Marble Tower” have also been rezzed in Northside.
I’ve basically done what I can with the place, and have absolutely zero prims left after this initial setup. I’m not sure that Northside will have strong personalities like Westside’s Cardboard (C.) Derek Jones to defend it from other town interests but we’ll see.
Marble Tower.
The land immediately north of Northside, where Baker stands below, is called *”Texas”*. Again this seems quite synchy, since SoSo West’s Dr. Casey now lives in Texas (Austin) and also the Marble Tower’s erection, coupled with recent landmark synchs in The Diagonal sim of Burnet, strongly brings to mind the recently deceased Don Boulet, former guru and leader of the Synchronicity Phenomena pack, and who also happened to reside in the Austin area — last in *Marble* Falls, which is in *Burnet* County.
And now it appears that Northside has a hot spring.
Note: Burnet is pronounced like “burn it”, with an emphasis on the first syllable.
