=== Pre-Town Creation ===

Before the town's official creation, [[CrA6914]] had arrived in the area from the Baltics between the 12th and 13th of July. He had sailed up the river from Gothenburg and had decided to create a town away from other ~~exisiting~~ towns. Having settled in an area with nothing much nearby, he set out building the town, starting with a mine, then a town hall, farm, and church. He also began building a stone path that would link an existing path to his town to enable easy access to Gothenburg.

=== Old Town ===

Line 18:

After several months, the old city was removed due to its small streets and buildings, along with many buildings being stripped of its purpose for newer buildings. Furthermore, the existing city walls have been removed along with the old Market to make space for the new buildings. The removal of the old city has allowed for fewer streets; bigger, modern and better European-styled buildings and more public spaces to serve the interests of the residents. Pre-Built property prices had also risen due to the removal of the wall and the new views of the newer buildings to better represent modern-day Swedish architecture while still retaining some of the town's history, most notably, the preservation of the CTM headquarters.

The town continued with the style of architecture, as well as the wider roads allowing for more space on the streets. The longest street going straight through the centre of Kongsvinger and over the River Glomma is called Kungsvägen, which is translated to Kings Road. This was the second road built, with Fenrisvägen named after the former king being the first to be built. At this point, the population of Kongsvinger had begun to decline, due to the inactivity of the players. However, the mayor did not invite ~~anymore~~ people due to the fact that the town had hardly been rebuilt and did not have any available plots for newer players who did not have the resources to build their own house in the style.

Having rebuilt the town, the mayor decided to rebuild the station underneath the [[CTM]] headquarters. He designed it with having 2 floors underground, with the very bottom floor containing the ~~iceroad~~ tracks for the K line and line 3. This was ~~layed~~ out to accommodate an island platform, as well as a mezzanine, with the first level underground being a transfer point between Exit A (Kungsvägen and the HQ) and Exit B (Ambassadvägen), as well as the Kongsvinger Metro system. This station takes up 3 chunks underground and is one of the largest stations in [[Sweden]] in order to represent [[CTM]].
