Stone Bay is a town owned by Kypy at SW12 station. It was Airplaneguy9's first town, and was founded on 31 December 2019, the last day of the decade.

History

Pre-Zeta

Since August 2019, Airplaneguy9 had always wanted to build a town near station SW12. When he became member in December 2019, he found that TheConductor owned the area, but he offered it to him for free. He began a series of roads and buildings, however, realising that Zeta was near and that he had no pavements, he decided to abandon the town in mid-January.

He built the Stone Bay Power Station in order to power Lumeva on February 4, 2020. Stone Bay was completely powered a few hours later, however, the power station never got further and was eventually decommissioned in January 2022.

Zeta

True to his word, Stone Bay was abandoned by Airplaneguy9, so much so that he did not even have a home for it. Instead, he focused on Wenyanga and New Singapore.

It was months before any work of any kind happened on Stone Bay, when on May 31, six months to the day the town was founded, FLR finally linked up its R1 Line with Stone bay from Loydon in East Lumeva. Airplaneguy9 is now attempting to get Stone Bay to the Councillor rank, as his last wish for the town.

A fireworks show was held on December 31, 2020, for Stone Bay's first birthday, and a plaque was commemorated at the spot.

On December 30, 2021, almost exactly 2 years to the day Stone Bay was founded, the town was transferred to STthecat, bringing new potential to the future expansion of Stone Bay. Stone Bay soon became ST's third side project, which planned to include a new cruise terminal and water park development. Construction on a new district in Stone Bay, Redshore Strip began on January 3rd.

The first new building in the town in 2 years was the first ever Velterro gas station in Redshore Strip, which opened on January 8, 2022.

Stone Bay joined the Alliance Cities on April 16, 2022, joining STthecat’s main projects Dogwood and Parkland. That same day, Stone Bay's new flag was unveiled at its town hall.

As of April 2022, Stone Bay is currently pending its withdrawal from the Epsilonian Republic.

On September 1, 2022, Adventure Bay Stone Bay Resort was announced to be built in the western part of the town, which will feature amenities catering to entertainment, retail and hospitality.

Stone Bay was transferred to Kypy, the original owner of SW12 station, on January 1, 2023. The town left Sequoia and Alliance Cities as a result, and all outstanding projects were cancelled.
