New Eden City was the first city founded on the planet of New Eden and remains its defacto administrative, commercial, and cultural center. In these roles, it is the de-facto capital city of New Eden and the Web Worlds. It is located around the origin at 0,0 and is the largest city on the planet. New Eden City also contains the world spawn for new Colonists. The city was founded by the First Survivor in Y0S0 NESC.

Landmarks

Potion Shop

Location: (234, 120 Dynmap)

Unsurprisingly, the Potion Shop sells a number of curative, protective, and restorative potions. The shop is easy to find due to the large lit potion sign mounted on the roof, which has become something of a local landmark around the city. It is also famous for mrunix's inability to remember where it is. For customers who are interested in a more... harmful product, they should visit the Poison Shoppe instead.

Deckard Building

Location: (140, 138 Dynmap)

The Deckard building is a six-story commercial building built in a contemporary style. It is currently unoccupied and looking for a tenant.

Rival Brewpub

Location: (207, 189 Dynmap)

Originally constructed as a nameless brewing facility by Y0S3 by xtonx723 for use as a brewery to supply beer and spirits to the people of New Eden. However, construction dragged on for an extended period of time, prompting LEIGH&CO to construct the Rival Brewery across the street (hence the name). Upon seeing this a fit of emotion overcame xtonx723 and set the brewery alight. City fire crews rushed to the scene but were unable to save the structure which was substantially damaged. Upon hearing of this arson, LEIGH&CO seized the lot and salvaged the wreck of the building. It was expanded upon and became the Rival Brewpub, and since that time has faithfully been serving New Eden inhabitants with spirits, beer, and hot chocolate. History buffs will note that the original brewing barrels as constructed by xtonx723 can be seen in the rear of the structure with a commemorative plaque.

Rival Brewing

Location: (207, 189 Dynmap)

"Spirited beverages for spirited individuals"

Located across the street from the Rival Brewpub, the brewery is the commercial facility which produces Rival products, including spirits, beer, and hot chocolate. The brewery was constructed in Y0S3 after xtonx723 failed to construct a brewery in reasonable time. The brewery facility actually consists of two structures; the distillery as well as an aging warehouse containing racks of barrels for producing beer and other aged spirits such as whisky. The brewery is famed for containing barrels made out of every conceivable wooden material, which allow the brewery to produce products with unique flavor profiles and restorative properties.

The brewery is normally closed to the public, however it does contain a public recycling station that allows Survivors to dispose of excess glass bottles who in turn receive a deposit fee in return.

Other Landmarks

The Great Tessellation

In Y2S2, the Land Office converted to a new standard grid reference for lots. As a result of this process, unowned, open areas of New Eden City were converted to the new system. For areas that were previously owned, lots were adjusted to conform to the new standard system as much as possible, with deference given to existing lots, builds, and the overall layout of the city. This became known as the Great Tessellation.
