Dana Point is a former city and current territory of Arcadia in southeastern Epsilon founded by MC_Protocol. Dana Point was founded with the intention of becoming the most beautiful and uniquely designed city on the server. It was owned by lil_shadow59 as a part of Arcadia, which was later transferred to MC_Protocol.
The city takes its namesake and inspiration from the real-life city of Dana Point, California.
History
Dana Point began construction on December 1, 2018. MC_Protocol built the town as he wanted to compensate for the "lack of true realism towns" on the server. At the time, MC_Protocol was recovering from a recent health problem had decided to work on building a town with design contributing to realistic road standards, building designs, and infrastructure. Other towns that MC_Protocol had owned all had issues with a lack of thoughtful planning or the difficult construction of buildings. The town became his first true town where the buildings were planned out and had the correct vision that he wanted.
On October 11, 2019, ownership of the town was transferred to lil_shadow59 and was subsequently annexed into Arcadia as an enclave territory.
On February 12, 2021, the ownership of Arcadia was transferred to MC_Protocol, which included Dana Point.
