Well as promised earlier, construction has begun on the new expanded portion of Hamsterville's East side. Though, due to some builds not previously spotted when the area was scouted, only a few North-South roads will be extended. One of them (Branson Avenue) has already been extended. It now goes from the new Embassy Avenue extension at 5100N 500E all the way to North County Line Road @ 1000E.
Due to this expansion, the handoff between Branson Avenue and Embassy Avenue will be moved from 272E to 500E.
The expansion, however, has caused a shift of the exact location of Hamsterville Ground Zero. The new Hamsterville Ground Zero is now located at AW 5029N 500E. This is because the city's North border has had to be extended from Retsmah's Road @ 5150N to Wayne's Way @ 5208N.
There are a few North-South roads (aside from County Line Road) which were created as a result of blockage of East-West roads or roads which were started by other citizens and extended by me in order to reach from one side of town to the other.
Future plans call for a crosstown freeway to run from the Riverside Expressway SE of Hamsterville to Intertown Highway 55 as it heads towards the 8096 Beltway utilizing part of the newly expanded portion of the city. Train service will also be piped through the Old Cedar Town District via the expanded portion as well. Stations will be stratigically located in areas that are convient, but ARE NOT unreasonably intrusive of Old Town itself (afterall Mudflap *did* build [what we now call Old] Cedar Town, and he can just as easily take it down if he so desires). The City of Hamsterville considers Mudflap A NEIGHBOR JUST LIKE ANY OTHER BUILDER. And WITHOUT YOU - THE BUILDERS IN THE AW COMMUNITY - Hamsterville is NOTHING.
In other news....It looks as though Hamsterville might be getting ANOTHER TV station. This one will, in all likelihood, be on Channel 13 (call letters and location yet to be determined), and will be affiliated with the new Meh! TV Network According to the Meh! TV Network website plans also call for a cable channel to be created. If this is true, officials at VCI (Virtual Cable Inc.) have said that it'll be added to the system once the cable channel officially launches. Stay tuned for more info. on this as more will be posted as we get it.
And that's it for the latest in Hamsterville City News.
Till next time.....

Debut Edition & Planned Expansion
Welcome to the debut edition of the blog for the City of Hamsterville. News will be posted here from now on.
In this edition, the buzz word is EXPANSION....EXPANSION....EXPANSION!!! Yes, Hamsterville is expanding again. This time we're not only expanding the East side, but the city's North side as well.
The city's East side expansion project will ultimately DOUBLE the size of the city in terms of East-West travel. This is being done to accomondate building once it commences in earnest. It will give people more room to build plus it will more easily accomondate buildings. The city's East side will move from 555E to 1000E.
The city's North side expansion is because Retsmah's Road North @ 5150N doesn't go past 555E. However, Wayne's Way, which is just a little ways North of there, will be expanded to reach 1000E.
It has not yet been decided which roads will be extended from their current ending point at Retsmah's Road East (555E). But it looks as though it will work like this...
* Zephyr Road @ 4850N (already done in 2002)
* East Langley Boulevard @ 4867N
* East Archuletta Street @ 4900N
* Matthew Fox Lane @ 4957E
* East Hamsterville Boulevard @ 5000N
* East Oak Street @ 5089N*
* Branson Avenue @ 5100N
* East Oak Street may not be expanded. This is subject to change.
Therre will be NO North-South roads aside from the road already created at 621E. Of course, as building occurs, roads will be created as needed and where warranted.
Of course this will mean that the location of Hamsterville Ground Zero will be changed. Just where is the $64,000 question right now as it still has to be calculated. But we'll keep you posted.
