Just a little fore-warning: This map is not for Crafters under the age of 15. If you are under that age, please leave immediately and find a different map or use with discretion. As games (sort of) say: Rated M for Mature. Player Discretion is advised. You have been warned.   (Just watching out for those young Minecrafters) 

This is My City, Ultra City, it is located in Northern California. It is home to the Main Characters of my Super Hero series (Will be releasing some little short stories to go along with this). Ultra City has a Population of 7,534,304. It is the Second most Populated City in the US according to the 2013 census and has the Third Highest tourist population. It has the Second highest population of Super Human's and Extra Terrestrials in the World following close behind Beijing, China (who house mostly Super Humans). 

Ultra City Is Split into Nineteen different Districts and Five Small Areas of either Recreation or Utility. (And, Yes there is a small desert area, and I know its not Geographically plausible to have a desert in Northern California, but this is a fictional City sooooo.)

Also, all of the buildings were built by myself alone. Most of the trees that you see are from the Custom Tree Repository by this amazing Terrainist -----> lentebriesje *


You can check out his project here ----->  Custom Tree Repository *


*PLEASE DO NOT REDISTRIBUTE ANYTHING THAT BELONGS TO EITHER ME OR LENTEBRIESJE ANYWHERE WITHOUT OUR CONSENTS, (see the copyright section on lentebriesje's tree repository).

Also please DO NOT use any of my buildings in your own projects unless you have consulted me and I have okayed it. Most likely the answer will be "yes, but you must give me credit somewhere in/on/near the build," but just because it's a 95% chance yes I still ask that you ask for consent.

DOWNLOAD WILL BE ADDED WHEN CITY IS AT LEAST 50% COMPLETE

Pictures will be uploaded as I finish the city's districts. ( as soon as I figure out how to do it, i will get a dyn map or something going so you will be able to witness the progress as it is built.)

Stateston - Middle Class district. Good shopping relatively good residentials. VERY GOOD CASINOS AND CLUBS! This district houses places where people can waste their hard-earned mone on games that completely rip you off and strippers that won't let you touch them no matter how much you beg and plead(dear people who might think thats a bit vulgar, and sexist, truly sorry, just trying to be comedic.) Come to Stateston, where you can have a gay ol' time.

Boardwalk City - I'll sum it up for you. IT'S ONE GIANT AMUSMENT PARK ON A BOARDWALK.

Eagle Shore- The historic district of Eagle Shore was once an independent town. It was the one of the first American Settlements in the area that became California and, Today, still contains some of the original Houses, Shops, and other buildings including the First Rail Station in that area.

The Rec Areas and Utility Areas

Freedom Island - This Landmark is significant to Ultra City alone. It represents the Freedom and the Peace Treaty between the Two Sides that fought in the Battle of Eagle Wing. It is home to the Freedom Statue and the Founders Bell.

La Ciudad Del Muerte - Historic Ghost Town/ Mining town. Very Haunted. 

Jaymont - Its a Nuclear power plant that used to power the city all of the time, but currently is there for backup, for if the Water in the river dries up, and the Sun gets covered up entirely, and the wind stops blowing. It is a rare occurence but people still work round the clock there making sure it doesnt blow up. 

The UC High Level Security Prison - one of the toughest, most secure prisons in the US. It houses the biggest baddest Criminals. and has the most prominent separation of the Prison Heirarchy. (Most of the Domestic Assaulters, Rapists and Child Molesters, do not make it out Alive.)

The Ultra City International Airport - Well, its an Airport.

Fort Blanco - Fort Blanco is a major Army Base and houses a grand armada of tanks, jets, and other earthly vehicles. Nothing else, no UFOs if thats what you were thinking, nope, none at all. We are just a simple army base. We are totally not hiding anything. ;D

The Ultra City Golf Club - Its a beatiful Golf Club with gorgeous greens and..... I am already bored talking about it....

AND THAT IS ULTRA CITY!


Now for some History
History of Ultra City - click to reveal
Ultra City was originally founded in 1790 when the Spanish claimed the area on the Eagle Wing River in what is now Downtown and called it Santa Esperanza. When they discovered "Gold" deposits in the river more Spanish settlers came and began building a town there. They extracted the "gold" on their side of the river and stored them away. THey didn't want to expand the town any further than it was as they figured it wouldn't be beneficial to do so. So there they lived, collecting new "Gold" deposits when they found them. Later, around 1844, the colonists from the East came over to explore and settle the west. When they Came upon the Eagle Wing River, they found "Gold" deposits along it's shores. Thinking they'd struck rich, they immediately called over more colonists to Build a town there Called Eagle Shore. They wanted more, and actually wanted to expand, so two men, Barnabas Croutch and Samuel Colt crossed the river to see what was on the other side. The two were immediately captured by the Spanish and that sparked the Battle of Eagle Wing. The Battle Lasted for two Months, until a man from the Colonies named Franklin Cross, a simple banker, showed up and discovered that the Gold the two sides had found was not Gold at all. The Two sides immediately waged a peace treaty and The Founder's Bell was forged out of the Not Gold and Placed on an island between the two settlements. They called this Island Freedom Island marking their Freedom from the deadly battle. 

In the years to come the Settlers built three Other settlements which later became cities, Santo Verde, River Edge(Riverdale), and Minería (La Ciudad del Muerte). On November 30th of 1880, a Man by the name of Carson Ultra visited the land in hopes to build a large city reminiscent of Cities like San Diego and New York. Ultra was a renowned inventor and a millionaire by inheritence. He bought Santa Esperanza from the mayor and in return, made him the new Mayor of Ultra City. In 1888, He went to the mayors of Santo-Verde and River Edge and tried to by the land. They Refused. Ultra decided to let it go and began building around them. When the residents of the towns began witnessing this great task that Ultra was undertaking, they decided to move into his City as it had better living and a chance to start over. In 1890 the Mayors gave up their lands to Ultra. The Residents of Eagle Shore still refused to give up their land. By 1895, Ultra City had grown to cover the entire island that Santo Verde had sat on and area around Eagle Shore, it also spread north from what was Santa Esperanza. In 1904, Eagle Shore was given no choice and was forced by the US Government to give up the land. 1906: Ultra City was split into the Districts of Bayside, Downtown, Santo-Verde, Scottsburg, Northpointe, Eagle Shore, Stateston, and Riverdale. In 1908, Carson died of a major heart attack and his son, Lawrence Ultra(born: 1883), took over. Lawrence immediately wanted to expand more. In 1920 Lawrence finished building Carsonburg, a district on the west side of Eagle Shore. The district was dedicated to his father. By 1925, Lawrence had already began building into the areas above and to the East of Northpointe. He also began building an area where the rich and famous could live, on an Island off of Bayside. By this time the City had developed Seaview, Midtown, Universityville, Raleigh, Uptown, Easton, and Industrial Park. Lawrence wanted to be more than just a founder, when he tried out for mayor (two years in a row) he was never elected. In a drunken rage he had the Mayor Murdered and was then elected Mayor by default. In 1930 he Decided Ultra City needed a new center for their city "government." Lawrence moved the City Hall to an area he tore down, developed and named "Capitol." He built a central courthouse there as well. 1935, The main land areas of Ultra City are complete. In 1945, Lawrence was thrown in jail on an account of murder in the first degree after a more thourogh investigation of the Murder of the Mayor in 1927 led the police to discover what actually happened. 

:More Recent Events:  (Pertaining to the City and its founders)
1958: Jaymont is Developed
1960: Carson is burned to the ground by a wildfire, and the city decides to rebuild it as a tourist spot and eventually develope a Boardwalk amusment park and call it Boardwalk City
1970: Lawrence is set free
1977: Lawrence dies of lung cancer
1985: Little Tokyo is developed.

Hello! For those of you who actually followed me and my building, thank you so much. I must however tell you that i have decided to do one of two things with my City build. I will either scrap it completely or simply put it on hiatus. My reasoning for this is my discovering of Cities: Skylines a game that i have made great use of and actually made Ultra City in it and it looks just as i imagined it would look. (almost) It also looks more realistic(which i like). Another reason is that i have been battling with the idea of enlisting the help of complete strangers. I am so scared that A: Something will go wrong and no one will be able to come on. and B:Someone will come on and completely destroy all that has been created.





So anyway, with that, i have decided that i am going to release my more generic builds to you. I will start with the builds that are definitely 100% complete.





Thank You So much for following and liking what i have done. Maybe someday the city will see fruition, but for now it will be on hold.
