The Additions of 0.5.3
This update focuses on the north side of Ashfield. Adding two areas, Ashfield west and Springfield. And redeveloped previous areas: Northpark, (previously Melrose and old Springfield), Clinton, Glenview, and Ashfield east.
Ashfield west
Ashfield west is a counterpart to the Westwood neighbourhood. It is based on a run-down working-class, suburb of Greenfield. It added 20 new factories and warehouses, and the iconic THORPE silos, that appeared in the update video. It adds warehouses and factories for well-known companies in greenfield, like Trippy Appliances. Some factories are being taken down to further redevelop the Ashfield area.
Clinton
Clinton has been developed over the past 20/30 years, while still being developed for the great Ashfield Redevelopment. The west side of the Clinton warp is a big developed commercial area, including many offices, commercial buildings and apartments to fit the people of Ashfield. It also includes a multi-building shopping mall, with a food court, movie theater and many stores. The west side of the Clinton warp includes more development going on. From big waterfront apartment buildings being constructed to old warehouses being dismantled for redevelopment.
Springfield
Springfield is the newly developed commercial zone for the great Ashfield redevelopment. This area features many iconic structures, like the Kazias center, a big hockey stadium under construction, Or Minekea, a big furniture store that returned after being gone for over 3 updates. The area also includes a movie studio called worldly studios. There are more notable structures like the under construction Nozana Distribution center or the Craftco store. Springfield is the current hot-spot for people moving into town.
Northpark
Northpark is the current hot spot for living. It includes many brand new houses and apartment buildings. It houses Springfield elementry and middle school, and a community recreation center, the perfect place to be when you have kids! While before the GAR (Greater Ashfield Re-development), this used to be a place filled with factories and warehouses. Now it is a bustling neighbourhood with housing, hotels and strip-malls. While most of the neighbourhood is finished, there is still a lot under construction, Like the Northpark train station.
