Welcome To Towson City!
Welcome to Towson!

This is a large fairly famous city, with a lot going on. For years, there has been an unspoken, yet observed, rift between the rich, the poor, and the middle class. So, what will happen with your life? Will you join up with the rich, and become famous? The middle class, and be a normal person? It's all up to you.

.: Community :.
[ ]Amberwood Estates
Large, posh houses that have an expensive upkeep. Mostly only people who have high-paying jobs, won the lottery, or have a large inheritance live here. They're all different colors and have different numbers and types of rooms.
00
[ ]Linway Street (3 sub-boards)
This is your average little neighborhood--neither upper nor lower class--with a variety of different houses, that come in all different sizes. It's a friendly neighborhood, great for raising kids.
00
[ ]Seawind Suites (1 sub-board)
Seawind suites is a large apartment complex with over two hundred rooms. The rooms vary in size, with one-, two-, or three-bedrooms, and one or two bathrooms. Each one has one kitchen, a living room, and a balcony.
00
[ ]Out In The Country
Out in the outskirts of town is a long country road, with several farms along it. People can own large farms, raise livestock and crops and everything like that. The sizes and contents of the farms vary, depending on the owners. There are also regular houses out here, for the people that didn't want to live too close to the noisy, busy city.
00
[ ]Caravelle Apartments (3 sub-boards)
A large cul-de-sac, with three seperate apartment buildings. The building all have rooms of different sizes, anywhere from one to four bedrooms. All the apartments have a balcony, some facing the cul-de-sac, and other toward the nearby ocean.
00
[ ]Ghetto Housing (1 sub-board)
This isn't your average residential neighborhood. Most, if not all, of the apartments have only one bedroom, and are in the middle of gang territory. And the only houses around have broken windows, and run by drug lords and gangs. Definately not a great place for people with kids.
00
~Towson:: Uptown~
[ ]Towson Medical Center
Like all big cities the Hospital is always in the limelight of everything, so it is in direct access to the uptown where its hi-tech and provides the best health care seen for over 50 years.
00
[ ]Little Angels
Open to kids aged birth through four years, Little Angels offers a great day care service, while at the same time preparing children for school. The kids get daily snacks and playtime, which means fun games and some learning activities.
00
[ ]Towson University
Towson University is one of the reasons the town is so famous. This university has really high ratings in not only academics, but sports, too. In fact, their lacrosse team is third in the country. Most students graduating from here become very successful in life. It's a great place to go..if you can afford the tuition.
00
[ ]Towson High
Townson High is the only High School in the city. It is large, holds over 3 thousand students and has the best educational services in the state. There is everything to do here. If you want the best grades and the best outlook in life then you should really attend here.
00
[ ]The Angel Shack
A great bridal store where one can buy the wedding dress of your dreams. They have a wonderful selection. They also sell formal dresses for fancy restaurants, and proms, as well as accessories, such as purses, and veils.
00
[ ]Icove Center for Plastic Surgery
This father-and-son plastic surgery center is booming with business. They've even worked on some celebrities! They handle all kinds of cases from boob jobs to lipo and reconstructive surgery. The main waiting room always has up-to-date newspapers an magazines, not like the old ones found in most healthcare facilities.
00
[ ]Renaissance
A wonderful fancy restaurant, perfect for a romantic date. It's completely non-smoking. It has several rooms--some of them the lights are low, and you can have a candlelight dinner. They do require the ladies to wear a formal dress, and the men ties. No tennis shoes or jeans/T-shirts.
00
[ ]Player's Guild
The Player's Guild has many purposes--not only do they put on plays, but they also offer acting classes as well. Their shows are great--it's as if the actors are professionals. Upcoming Plays- None, as of yet.
00
[ ]Rising Stars Talent Agency
The talent agency--where aspiring singers, musicians and actors/actresses come to try and get discovered. There is a recording studio, a photoshoot room, and everything that people need to accent their special skills.
00
[ ]Roarke Enterprises
A large office building, in the central-west region of the city. They are many cubicles for the office workers, and the building is large enough so that the cubicles aren't too small. The Enterprises do just about everything--Insurance, Newspapers, anythnig you can think of. And then, in some areas, it's just a regular office.
00
[ ]Towson Police Academy
This is where future police officers ages 18 to 20 come to train for their job. (It's optional--not all police officers have to have gone to the academy.) It's like boot camp in a way..not for the weak-minded.
00
:. Towson:: Heart of the City .:
[ ]Town Hall
The town hall is where the congresspeople make the city's laws, where you can get married in a small private ceremony, or petition the government to fix the road and such.
00
[ ]White Square
White Square is a huge Fountain right in the Center of Towson. It was bult over 60 years ago and stands at 40ft tall with great design and image. It is the focal point of the city, the square around it has places to sit, places to get food etc. Everyone had to have their photo taken here, its just one of thse things.
00
[ ]Cranberry Mall (8 sub-boards)
A massive, multi-leveled mall. There is literally something for everyone here--they have everything from punk/goth/rebel, to girly clothes, to baby stuff. The food court is on the main level and has a small carousel, and on the rest of the other five levels is shopping galore. Of course, there's an elevator for those who are too lazy to take the stairs/escalator. The first floor also has a small stage that has random people sing on it sometimes.

[ ]Public Library
With tens of thousands of books, and literally unlimited research resources, this massive library is a geek's paradise. The books are separated meticulously by the ever-reliable Dewey Decimal System. This building is so massive, that there are free maps of it at the front desk, for anyone who wants one. There are plenty of places to sit and read, do homework, research, etc. But be quiet..
00
[ ]Garaux Park
A nice little park with a lot to do. There is a long walking trail (Approx. 2 miles), with random exercise station along the way. There are a couple of different playgrounds, each with a tire swing, monkey bars, etc. And, of course, the wilderness center, located in the beautiful Jpanese Gardens, which are filled with cherry trees, brought from Japan. A small brook flows through the park, which people occasionally go fishing in.
00
[ ]Towson Fire and Rescue
Is your house on fire? Cat stuck in a tree? Call the TFD [Towson Fire Department] and they'll come help out. It's got a special room upstairs for those that are on-duty and need a rest, and a kitchen. As well as the normal stuff a Fire Department has.
00
[ ]City Pool
A large outdoor pool, open only in the summer time. It's divided up into three sections--one is the kiddie pool, which is only 8 inches deep. The second section is the main pool, which varies in depth from 3 to 12 feet, the latter being the diving board end. The third section is the lap pool.
00
[ ]Main Street Diners (5 sub-boards)
These are just a bunch of places to eat, most of which serve very different foods. There is a classic diner, an internet cafe`, a Star Bucks, and more.
00
[ ]Mercury
A small bar with three rooms. The first room is your average every-day bar, which looks eerily like the one from the show Cheers!. The second room is a pool room, where people are permitted to smoke (the rest of the bar is smoke-free.) The third room is a popular teen hangout, and, if the cops aren't paying much attention, the barkeep sells a joint every now and again
00
-Towson :: Dowtown-
[ ]Towson Police Department
Towson Police Department deals with everything from robberies to attacks. They have 12 holding cells where prisoners are kept while under arrest and the prison is top security.
00
[ ]Courthouse
The Courthouse--where cases are argued, the guilty punished, and the innocent set free. There are two sides to every story, and it's up to an impartial jury to decide whose side is correct. There are always plenty of spectators, and the press. Of course, not all cases must be decided by a jury--things such as divorce, and minor crime can be decided by just the judge.
00
[ ]Latte-Da
Latte-Da is nothing more than generic StarBucks. Unlike the other knock-off store sin the area, though, their stuff tastes exactly the same--unless one would have freaky super-human taste--just cheaper.
00
[ ]Adoption Center
Unwanted, abused, or abandoned children under the age of eightteen come here, to the Adoption Center. They are well taken care of. The school-aged children are given classes, and all of the children are given three square meals a day.
00
[ ]Taco Hell
This is a really cheap version of taco bell. They sell pretty much the same stuff, only most of it is either too spicy, or just tastes a bit..off. But, it's nice and cheap, so most people can afford this food.
00
[ ]CD Cess Pool
This is yet another cheap knock-off store, pretty much mirroring FYE. But they sell only used things here, and old things like Walkmen and cassette players, as well as records, and used CD's, and some games. Be careful , though--disks sold here are often dirty or scratched up.
00
[ ]Rittenhouse Free Clinic
This is pretty much a regular hospital, except, it's free. They'll treat anybody in an emergency, but anyone above a certain income will have to pay. Rittenhouse does everything a regular hospital does, and has highly-trained doctors. Donations are gladly accepted.
00
[ ]Lithium
A very guarded strip joint that also serves alcohol. The bouncer is extremely strict about I.D., and knows when he sees a fake one. Inside, it's dark, except the stage, which has several different colors of lights so the dancers and strippers know what they're doing. There are chairs all over, some close and some far from the stage.
00
[ ]The Ghetto
In The Ghetto {a.k.a: The 'Hood}, crimes such as murder and drugs (both selling and using) are almost expected. It's dangerous for even the most careful law-abiding citizens. Many police officers have been sent in, in an effort to correct the problems, but very few have made it out alive.
00
-//Sand and the Sea\\-
[ ]The Beach
Like everyone dreams of, the City is beside the coast line so you can have the city life but have a beach right on your door step. This is where everyone comes in their spare times. This is like the best place to hang out and just chill.
00
[ ]Beach Shacks
These Beach Shacks are different beach businesses, some are the coast guard, some are surfing shops, leisure shacks, Boat Trips, Smoothie Shacks etc.

[ ]The Ocean
This is the gorgeous deep blue. Of course like all hot climates the waters attract preditors such as sharks. But other marine life thrives out here. Great place to come out on a boat, jet skiis etc, its always full of life and great for diving.
00
>Outskirts of Towson<
[ ]Young Champions
The local Martial Arts facility. Classes are taught for all levels from white to black belts, for ages five and up. It's a pretty small building, though, so class sizes are kept fairly small. Tournaments are also held here, which students can participate in once they reach a certain belt.

[ ]La-La-Land
A hippie bar, where the bartenders wear tye-dye and have "Peace" signs posted up all over the walls. This place serves not only all forms of alcohol, but some drugs (only if requested by the customer.) such as reefer as well. Be careful, though. The cops have their eyes on this place!

[ ]Evolution Skate Park
This is a large building for people who love to skateboard. There are all kinds of things from half-pipes and quarter-pipes, to stairs with rails..everything a skater could want is right here. There are even lessons for beginners.
00
[ ]Drive-In
Random movies both new an old play each night at the drive-in. There is a different movie every night. All you have to do is park your car in the parking lot and sit in the field (bring a blanket!). There is a large screen that they display the movies on, with an excellent sound system.
00
[ ]Earth Trekks
A large rock climbing building. It used to be a warehouse, but then somebody bought it, and it's so much more fun now. There are walls for all different experience levels, and on the second floor, lessons and birthday parties are held.
00
[ ]Purple Iguana
The Purple Iguana is where anyone who wants a tattoo of any kind, or piercing of any kind, can come. The tattoo artists have a wide variety to choose from, but if you ask real nice, they might make something custom for you.
00
[ ]Paintball Grounds
A large plot of land outdoors, which people use for paintball. There are all kinds of walls set up, so people can hide behind them before jumping out to shoot, and the facility is bordering on the woods, which they also use to shoot around in. (They also airsoft at some times.) Of course, there is a small stand nearby, so the players can rent gear if they need to.
00
[ ]Dead Man's Cliff
Years ago, a rumor started that many people went here and never returned--hikers mysteriously vanished, and the like. At the top of the mountain--getting up, in and of itself is a long hard journey--there's a large cliff, with a waterfall coming off of it.
00
[ ]Dark Forest
A large forest, with all kinds of different trees, tall and short. It's perfect for hunting, or going on a camping trip. Animals such as deer, rabbits, raccoons, and squirrels wander around. Some trees have perfect branches for setting up a fort, a lookout, or whatever. Plus there are plenty of clearings to pitch a tent in.
00
[ ]Hot Springs
A small pool of hot water, produced naturally. It is surrounded by woods, making this the perfect place to get away from it all in privacy. There are even stretegically-placed rocks surrounding the edge of the spring, perfect for laying clothes out, and some in the water, perfect for use as a chair.

.Other & Abroad.
[ ]Means of Travel (5 sub-boards)
If travelling somewhere, there are several ways to go places: a Greyhound Bus, and airplane, a train, or maybe even driving by yourself! Some ways are more cost-effective than others, but they're all great ways to get from here to there, and around the world.
00
[ ]Vacation Spots (2 sub-boards)
These are great vacation spots, some close to home, others that you must take a longer trip to reach. They're all of great quality, and there's pretty much something for everyone. Have fun!

For those times when you just need to post in a place that doesn't already have its own board, this is the perfect place. It can be literally anywhere. A different country. An alley. Whatever. It's your choice. Who knows, if people post in a certain place enough, it might even become its own board.
