Landmarks

In addition to commercial venues, the town features several landmarks that contribute to its lore and

The Castle

Located in the Old Town district, the castle is a small fortified structure that was built when the city was first established many centuries ago. It is one of the oldest structures in the town and serves as a historical centerpiece for the Old Town district. The castle's architecture reflects the European-inspired aesthetic that defines the surrounding neighborhood. The castle exterior is also part of the area covered by the weekly

The Lighthouse

The lighthouse sits along the town's coastline and contributes to the maritime character of the settlement. It is consistent with the town's framing as a historical port and trading post. The lighthouse is a visual landmark rather than an interactive venue in the launch build.

Edwards and Co. Factory

The Edwards and Co. Factory is a visual landmark in the Industrial district. The factory is an abandoned shoe-manufacturing facility whose windows are boarded up, whose walls and water towers carry graffiti, and whose roofs have been overgrown with plants. It is one of the largest builds in the launch town and anchors the visual identity of the Industrial district.

These per-venue tracks help distinguish lots audibly when walking the open world, and the music itself is moddable; see
