Not the most modern, don't you think?

Dian Architecture may look that way from the outside, but inside is often another matter. Also the stone blocks are a very very old construction method that has withstood the test of time. These days dian stone blocks are superhardened, often from lavaforges. Meanwhile internal layers may have differnet means.

While it may appear old, it actually is some of the most economic and efficient architecture in the world. The systems inside are computerized with power often provided by solar systems not seen in the picture. The emphasis of the design is actually on the underground portions where the majority of acivity occurs.

If you look at some modern brick structures then at older large brick structure often the old big block structures are so much more attractive. The stones themselves are often very solid rather than small meaning that mortar may not even be required on the outside structure, although in sealed systems sealant is used.

So while you may think it doesn't look modern the designs are post modern used from thousands of years in architectural desgn, some of the older structures while simple have far more benifits than some new structures.

Large buildings cause windshere and environmental damages - natural enviormental issues and may use construction methods that cause issues. blockage of light etc..

Newer structures are much more environmetnal friendly likely not to contain carsnogenic pathogens etc.. and are relatively easy to upkeep and repair.

- underground buildings are more energy efficient, heat efficient and calming, they also pose less of a natural health risk, and often can integrate closed security features that larger buildings may not be as apt as to.

ICCD's closest thing to skycrapers is it's zigauraots. THe international airports also blend things. There is a satatlite dish array not to far from the picture. As well as a solar station both of which are module. ICCD finds smaller above ground structures less imposing and less expensive to maintain.

It is very effective space usage. that easily rivals sky scrappers - or groundbase scrappers. If you can hit ground water it can be a mixed blessing cause it may assist in some water needs.

It is nice that you are doing this, although buildings are being constructed for JCDOA charity command as well.

Those structures are constructed outside of Jakkson. New constructions are likely to be single mesopyramids one in each area with underground storage garages and offices, and other rooms, each with a communications

ICCD isn't all that interested in building anything in Caz'e city as it likely won't have personnel staffed directly there but instead there on temporary basises only as needed. INstead they will focus on the districts they are in although access to satalite communication as well as radiowave could be very useful.

We are building a medium-sized ICCD building in Jakkson. As you are the administrator of it, would this work?

'Very well, then. As we said a while back, F1 and G1 would fit us perfectly. My troops are arriving, aswell as construction workers who will start with the construction of motorways all across Kazeelië. That's what our men and women will mainly be focusing on: restoring the road network. We have already took the appropriate equipment with us, and we can start immediately.'

(OOC: For anyone wondering where I requested F1 and G1, that was post #112, on page 8. Here. (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=12879482&postcount=112))

It can be posted up, and if there is available real estate the people of Jakkson it should be fine. If there is no protest a plot of land will be put asside for developent. The local city Council will have to approve the use though, but considering the usage I don't think they will deny it.

OOC: waiting on Cazelia to give feedback

Ms. Mizuno confered for a moment before confidently addressing the conference. "We would like D2 and E1 centreing around Kaztania to allow our border air patrols a central base to operate out of, if needed we would also administrate over the area containing the dock for high threat shipments."
The Most Wise Empress Kou then adresses the group "As of right now I would be happy to sign this treaty."

We would like to add this, in order to stimulate the Cazelian economy, this building will be constructed by Jakksonian contractirs but to keep its structural integoty, it will be built to New Brittonian building codes.

"Construction of our centralized offices are underway in Caze City; the temporary name for this compound is Melnikov Prospekt, named after the current Praetor of Vetalia. We are currently reviewing plans for local offices throughout the country.

In addition, we have begun to ship supplies to accelerate construction of housing. Using prefabricated methods, with our present budget, up to 650,000 new units of housing per year can be constructed by our engineers, or enough for around 2.6 to 3.3 million people per year. Further increases could ramp this up to 1 or even 2 million units. Although architecturally drab, they provide all basic amenities for low cost and serve a valuable purpose as an economical solution to the housing crisis. In the future, they can be easily demolished and replaced with better structures when the Cazelian economy is back on its feet.

Here is our first development under construction, for reference. This project, called Focus Point I, will provide a total of 25,000 apartment units upon completion or enough for up to 125,000 people:

If any other members would like to provide information on the housing situation in their regions, we can begin discussing the kind of housing commitment our forces can provide."

As long as the structure doesn't violate Dian Environmental Laws it should be fine, and the Cazelians don't have an issue with it.

I really do not see an issue in either area.

The Prestonian peacekeeping force in Orlock reports that there are about 15,000 survivors still living in the city. We have given aid and set up medical and food distribution centers within the city. The citizens currently have a working and relatively stable government system in place. In an effort to repopulate the city, all refugees in the area are being directed to Orlock to settle there. The city itself is still standing, but electricity has been cut off. We expect to have it fully restored shortly. In short, everything is going well in Orlock, much to our surprise.

New Riverport is a different story however. The city was highly damaged during the war and is without any form of order. The majority of our peacekeeping force is stationed there, attempting to restore order and a sense of normality. A provisional government and court system has been set up, and an urban design team is working on rebuilding New Riverport, bigger and better than before. We have no exact counts on survivors in New Riverport, as most of them fled the city in the wake of the Londinian assault. Current estimates are for around 50,000 survivors living in and around the city. There are also plans to build a new city in the area between the two other cities. We wish to hear Cazelian input on this matter.

yes, we could use all the help we can get.

May the IICD have your approval to build Medium-sized office buildings in each city, and can reconstruction teams enter each city?
