Old town squares
This item contains 3 medium-sized rest zones and 2 monuments. The recreation areas are designed in the form of a landscaped garden square, alley or town square, in the center of which you can place a monument or fountain. Functionally, recreation areas are public transport stops, allowing citizens to overwhelm the areas. Thus, the zone serves as an intermediate rest point and increases the travel distance of citizens. Citizens try to wait for the promised “transport”, and then go to seek their fortune elsewhere. All objects require a flat landscape. For landscaping areas, the cheaty terrain editor is used.
The Battle Monument is located in Battle Monument Square in Baltimore, Maryland. The monument commemorates the Battle of Baltimore with the British fleet of the Royal Navy’s bombardment of Fort McHenry, the Battle of North Point and the stand-off on the eastern siege fortifications along Loudenschlager and Potter’s Hills. It honors those who died during the month of September 1814 during the War of 1812. It was sponsored by the City and the «Committee of Vigilance and Safety» led by Mayor Edward Johnson and military commanders.
The monument, designed by Baltimore architect J. Maximilian M. Godefroy and built in 1815–25. The base of the monument is an Egyptian Revival cenotaph. It is an unusually democratic monument for the time in that it records the names of all who died, regardless of rank. The eighteen layers of the marble base represent the eighteen states that made up the United States at the time of the war. A griffin is at each corner of the base. The column, carved as a Roman fasces, is bound with cords listing the names of soldiers who died during the battle, while the names of officers who died are at the top.
The monument is topped by an 8 feet tall 2,750 pound Carrara marble statue by Antonio Capellano of a female figure representing the City of Baltimore wearing a crown of victory, holding a laurel wreath in one hand and a ship’s rudder in the other. It was hoisted to the top of the column during the middle of the period of construction on the eighth anniversary ceremonies, Defenders Day, September 12, 1822.
