History
This is from the founder's perspective. In August of 2014, I joined the MRT server about once and looked around. At the time being an unexperienced builder and feeling daunted by a member application, I took a break from all of Minecraft. Fast Forward to November 2014, where I had just heard about the opening of Gamma through Frumple's YouTube channel. Excitedly, I rejoined the server. Upon joining, many gave me a warm welcome back to the server, and ended up looking around Nippia and following Techie around while he was working on Caelus (WorldJet at the time). After seeing this and the success of people on the server, I jumbled down a member application that was a mess. On my 2nd try for member, computerghost accepted me to the server! I instantly started a town, and that would be Oakley!
With world class shopping, beautiful architecture, lots of parks, and good people, Oakley is the place to be!
Districts
In Downtown, you will find large buildings mainly holding offices and apartments, reflecting the beautiful skyline one can see throughout nearly the entire city. Some notable projects are:
- Oakley Terrace, the first building made. Not very detailed or nice looking, but is special because of its history and how it started the downtown district at Tyler Avenue and 1st Street
- Forrest Towers, currently under remodeling, but was the first office tower in Oakley.
- Punta Verde, the MBS 420 News broadcasting complex. In construction, but when finished will the the tallest current building in the city.
In the bustling City-West district, There is shopping and things to do galore! Just about all of the shops are in this district, with civic centres, townhouses, and more! Notable projects are:
- Galleria Oakley, the small shopping center in Oakley.
- City-West Civic Centre, holding EAST offices, a library, and a conference room for city officials.
- Flavio Claruette, which will be a large apartment block in the City-West district once finished.
- Anaconda Bus Depot, the city's bus station.
The Acacia District is the resedential area of Oakley. It holds some large shops and small businesses below tiny apartments, yet otherwise is mainly just houses. One interesting thing to spot while in the Acacia District is 69 Sharkeisha Circle, a house appropriately owned by Music3_0.
