In Development: Dickens Plaza

I am attracted to Old London.  To cobbled walkways, brick buildings, and people scurrying about in the snow. 

For granted, Old London was more likely a steamy, smelly place with lots of people, horse manure dotting the pretty cobbled streets, and worse in the drains.  But, darn, I am still attracted to that vintage feeling.

So was born Dickens Plaza, a hybrid between an Old English Sim and Diagon Alley.  Here you can wander around the streets,  hang out in the pub, or shop at one of the freebie shops.  Or, if this kind of grimy, homey living suits you, take a home (there are several) or rent a store here.  You will find yourself in good company.

We are still in development but in the able hands of my cohort, Doc Falworth, as well as the suggestions by my artist daughter, Viola Dutchley, this region is shaping up.  

So... we invite you to come take a look...

OLLIVANDERS (THIS STORE IS AVAILABLE) BUT IN THE SERIES IT WAS A WAND SHOPPE.



A LOOK INSIDE THE APOTHECARY. LOOK INSIDE, I DARE YOU.
