Regarding the mansion, I’ve pitched in my suggestions of what COULD be done potentially with the area but I’m not completely against its existence.

 

And on that note, specifically, being UNDERUTILIZED is not the same as being useless.

I know Bingus will see this, shout out to that guy but sorry, your mansion is useless. The governors mansion takes up a large portion of the map and adds next to nothing for Roleplay and has been used in less events than you can count on your hands. The old townhouses created an area for people to own their own property and created fun roleplay. World Corp. also was another option for player owned property and some fun roleplay was held there. Either of those two options would add areas for roleplay and more people coming out of their properties to interact with each other more, also another place for cops to patrol.

Remove Bingus's mansion and give us more townhouses or World Corp. in its place!

Also people are mentioning that the Theater is useless, I agree, I haven't ever seen it used for anything other than drug deals. Remove it if it means more townhouses or bringing back World Corp.

Mansion area becoming a public pool and larger recreational park where more crime and seedy shit can happen would be tight. Maybe a cozy waterfront end, a parking lot that leads to tunnels, and a public pool and other entrance where the regular entryway to the mansion is. Just food for thought. Good place for deals, mugging, hiding out, whacking fools. Maybe a wooded thicket with diggable areas to hide and bury bodies. Etc. Just like a proper “seedy park with recreations” area instead of a big sexy eyesore nobody can utilize without being rich/connected.

I agree w this. 

Love the whole map; but ive never seen anyone but a literal criminal growing plants in the mansion. Its not seeming to be utilized as intended, though I dont know what it was actually intended for.

 
I know you (penzaddy)  said no buildings though adding actual boats (non movable, like house boats people rent marina spaces for) that players can rent would be nice, as there are more than one of us here that miss the old townhouses and the privacy they brought to each and every shady deal they witnessed. It would be another possible income generator for whoever owns the docks, another event area for houseboat parties (or anything idk thats just off the top) and give players another reason to go to that part of the city.

I have said this from day one: Remove the governor's mansion. I understand it's a cool idea, but it benefits no one. The idea that factions would rent it out was a good idea, but I guess I don't know this for sure. I'm sure that aspect was rarely used. Instead, I think an open park like the one on the New York map would be a good fit. I don't know if townhouses would work, but there are few reasons for people to come to the north besides my faction properties and De Leons. I'm not sure how everyone would feel about adding something of important in the north. There should be something interesting in each section of the map. I don't hate the World Corp idea as much but In my eyes would be another useless property no one goes to besides to PK their characters. Now, going forward my suggestions are just things that I think in the future more factions leaders would like and even current factions. 

Remove gun store #2 serves no purpose whatsoever. If it's a property whose only purpose is to buy ammo from it, make it non-ownable, or here's an idea make someone with a gun racket buy it. I understand this is not favorable, especially to the factions that have gun rackets but if no one buys it (Besides Brown and Sons who sold it soon after and no one else has tried to buy it) then it should be replaced by a building that can serve better RP. 

Change the Laundromat into the liquor store from Union City the one that has an upstairs. It's no secret that these types of properties like the 7/12 and the Restaurant by hardware are prime buildings to want to have. I think there would be more attention to want this type of property than the current laundromat. 

I think maybe taking a look at the cafe from Union City. Whenever the union city had a server I'm sure this was one of the best buildings to own as far as RP goes. It brings something unique into the server. I know we already have a "Coffee Shop" but, this one feels more grand and could bring some nice RP to whichever faction owns it. 

as far as anything dotted around the city like trees, newspaper dispensers and things like that looks fine I guess you would have to be the judge of that cause I honestly cant think of an area that would need more or less of this. 

I know everyone reading this and most likely Pendred as well. These are suggestions that I feel as a faction leader can bring RP to the server. As a new faction leader, It's hard to want to spend tons of money for a property that will not only not benefit you financially but will most likely not give you any RP benefits. There are no properties right now that I want to go for because either #1 I would spend double or even triple the amount of money I already spend and #2 It would not increase my faction's RP ability. I do all of this in a townhouse just fine. With that being said I know this is most likely not something you will take into mind as I'm sure you just want to make little changes here and there but I still want to voice my opinion on the things that could be improved thus far. Otherwise, Good map.
