This map was inspired by the smaller riverside towns along Florida's Intracoastal Waterway. It is a relatively flat map - because Florida is pretty flat! (We like to joke about our "Florida Mountains" - which are really just storm clouds on the horizon. Yes, it is that flat!)
We don't have a lot of basements in Florida either, the water-table is literally 6 feet down in many places!
So, I don't recommend basements on this map - especially along the coast! They will probably flood.
This map is designed to work best with smaller lot sizes - like 3X3 or smaller, lots.
I made sure that beach lots will place easily on all of the water-side roads.
I am using this map for my Main Hood:
You may use this map however you'd like, of course! Below is the undecorated version that comes in the download:
If you'd like to use this map for a subhood or university, please follow Mootilda's guide - linkTutorial: How to Create a Custom Subhood Template.
I recommend using a camera mod for this map. I use Lowedeus' Compilation of Camera Modslink.
