Right now, definately Sabal Island.

Here are a couple shots of a new building in Sabal Island. It is a small, 3-storey, family-owned retail store. They do very good business!

Who can guess what state Sabal Island will be located in? I never specified before.

Try to guess based on the building styles.

Thanks for viewing.
More soon to come!

foxmtbr · #31 Posted **Aug 13, 2007, 7:28 AM**

Hmm, that new building has a California feel to it...?

rbowk · #32 Posted **Aug 13, 2007, 7:31 AM**

sweet i like it

Peter · #33 Posted **Aug 13, 2007, 7:34 AM**

Thanks for the comments.

Here is a big hint from the original post:

Sabal Island is a modern city located on an island off the shores of the southeastern United States. It was founded in 1967, but was an unincorporated community on the maps long before then.

Aleks · #34 Posted **Aug 13, 2007, 7:37 AM**

I feel like it's in Florida or somewhere in the South east. Am i right?

Peter · #35 Posted **Aug 13, 2007, 6:10 PM**

Correct Aleks!

That building was supposed to have a Miami look.

It is located between the Bahamas and Miami, about 50 miles under South Bimini. It does not reside in a county. It is its own municipality under state level. It does not coexist with Otahita. There is currently no way to drive to the island. Ships and planes are the only way, but there is rumor the state wants to help fund a long bridge connecting Sabal Island to Miami. It is often called the celebrity home away from home.

Aleks · #36 Posted **Aug 13, 2007, 6:16 PM**

yeahhh!! are you gonna create a water front and ferry terminals and airports?

Peter · #37 Posted **Aug 13, 2007, 6:21 PM**

Yup, as long as my computer can handle it by then. I am building outwards from where I started.

Dac150 · #38 Posted **Aug 13, 2007, 6:29 PM**

The detail is very stunning.

Austin55 · #39 Posted **Aug 13, 2007, 6:50 PM**

Yes, it is very close to Cuba and has a pretty large Cuban population, but actually not as large percent as Miami. like i wrote in the original description, it is a diverse population. lots of Caribbean cultures make the city thrive into what it is.

Yes, I plan to have very nice mansions when the city is spread to the area for them.

Sabal Island saw a lot of pirates in its early days and it is believed that modern pirates still come around often secretly.
