Okay, I'm starting this over because there was a lot of interest in it but the original thread got sidetracked with a lot of Omnis who seem to believe what they have to say about the Clan city matters. The bullying tactic was keeping some people away from the thread, so here is a clean start.
Here is the proposal:
Old Athen Restoration Project 2
Quite some time ago now that its mostly forgotten in the collapse of the Council of Truth and other critical events was a project to raise money for the restoration of Old Athen. Headed by the Mercury Dragons this project was popular even if doomed for being before its time. Maybe that time has arrived now?
Old Athen is the first and foremost of many Clan cities, but its still littered with Omni-Tek garbage left from centuries ago. OT insignias, signs, and other garbage still litter portions of East OA. Not to mention an excessive amount of rubble that could use a little cleaning up.
I propose that:
- All Omni-Tek signs and propaganda be permanently removed
We construct our own statues and reface some of the drab Omni architecture.
The some of the more disruptive debris is removed
If possible to get representatives from the 3 largest clans (Knights, Sentinels, Eco Warriors) to reside there so that other Clanners can get to know them.
If possible I would even take the project further, though it might be getting overly ambitious. However I'd like to see Old Athen resemble a city for all the Clans. I propose that each major clan donate its own architects for the project.
I would like to see Clan Knights redo the architecture on and around the Prison on the north end of the city. Do we really need 2 prisons in Old Athen? Maybe we can do away with one of the two and replace it.
Clan Eco Warriors should take the east end and remove the rubble and replace it with the plants and natural attractions they so love.
I propose that Clan Sentinels take the south end around their tower store and fix it up. Remove the OT statues and put in your own. Time for your actions to live up a little more to your rhetoric.
Maybe even we can get the Athen city council to approve a few of each Clans independent guards and use them as an opportunity to teach everyone about our different Clans.
Maybe we can even improve some of the city defenses out on the eastern portion of the city.
------
To help encourage ideas I'd like to get a group of interested surveyors together at a later date. Things are caught up with Jobe prepared to make some big announcement, but perhaps afterwards we can get a large group of Clanners to the city to come up with and submit ideas for its redesign.
(and if you have any OOC suggestions I have a thread for that too)
Lets help make Old Athen look like the City of the Clans that it is supposed to be after this last century.
