The Additions of 0.5.3
This update focuses on the north side of Ashfield. 0.5.3 added two areas, Ashfield West and Springfield, and several redeveloped previous areas: Northpark (previously Melrose and old Springfield), Clinton, Glenview, and Ashfield East.
Ashfield west
Ashfield West is a counterpart to the Westwood neighborhood, based on a run-down working-class suburb of Greenfield. It added 20 new factories and warehouses, as well as the iconic THORPE silos, which appear in the update video. It adds warehouses and factories for well-known companies in Greenfield, like Trippy Appliances.
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 prominent 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 has more development, from significant waterfront apartment buildings to old warehouses for redevelopment.
Springfield
Springfield is the newly developed commercial zone for the significant Ashfield redevelopment. This area features iconic structures, like the Kazias center, a large hockey stadium under construction, Or Minekea, a big furniture store that returned after three updates. The area also includes a movie studio called worldly studios—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 Elementary 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. It is a bustling neighborhood with housing, hotels, and strip malls. While most of the area is complete, there is still a lot under construction, Like the Northpark train station.
