History
Early History
Creation
New York was the third town to be ever created in Terra nova, and is by far the most developed.
Growth
New York has seen a period of steady growth, with a population of nearly 50 citizens as of March 2019. In April 2019, New York unified with the city of Newark in the nation of New England, expanding its reach southwards over the coast.
By September 2019, New York was the city with the most amount of players (75), but it would periodically lose this title from time to time due to players leaving New York to join other New England cities. As of October 25th, 2019, New York is EMC's 3rd largest city with a population of 85 people.
Buildings
New York's town spawn point is a fort originally created by Lucas2011. It stands between the Manhattan and Long Island Districts. It was the first structure to be constructed. A room reserved for former Wabanaki official MylesRatliff still exists inside.
The Mayor, Lucas2011, is responsible for the creation of many skyscrapers, such as the recreation of the new One and Two World Trade Center.
