Hope Bay is a harbor town in the southern area of the map that was originally created by TheSynthPunk, the mayor of the town. It was made into a larger settlement with the help of snakyman, who found TheSynthPunk and matthi2002 making houses there. He also wrote this paragraph.
A road link is established with the closest Nexus link, Winterthorn, and going through Sur-Kudanat outpost. As of 2020, Hope Bay has been connected to several other settlements and cities, courtesy of 
Flamehaze97. There has been a year-long hiatus in the construction process, but now both mayors have returned to finish old projects and plan a whole set of new ones. All help is welcome!
Town structure and places of interest
Currently Hope Bay contains a humble amount of buildings, all of which are scattered throughout 5 districts of the town.
Central Hope Bay contains the town hall, the visitors' sign wall, one of two of the town's public mines and leads to the nearby areas that contain a wheat field, a lighthouse built by 
Sokase and grazing fields in the nearby forest for Hope Bay's livestock.
Stonewind District contains a small trading hub/working area with most of the town's public facilities: a smithy, the second public mine, community chest and enchanting house, as well as pre-built residencies that anyone can buy.
Hearthhaven District contains small, 8x13 plots of land, as well as a statue in the nearby waters. Anyone who is willing to apply for citizenship can build their house there for free.
Forge District was started from 
vauxhallmadman's unfinished factory project. Right now it houses only a dock and a loading crane, but later down the line it might be spruced up with some warehouses, wind generators and other "industrial" things.
Mulitum District stands opposite of the Forge District, and will house various offices, recreational facilities and inns in the future. Right now it boasts only a single house with an inn and a local office of "Western Corridor Trading Co."
Local landmarks include a memorial sign left by snakyman during the founding of the town, 
Anna_28's pink evergreen in the forest near the lighthouse, and a sizeable "SNAKY SUKCS" sentiment laid out in blocks due west of the town (The mayors furiously deny their involvement, wink-wink).
