Week 1 (6/5/22)

-
Before we get to the details, here is some project information.

This is a project that started on May 29, 2022 to build the entirety of the city of Easthampton MA, USA in Minetest, a Minecraft related game with hundreds of mods (installed) that is also 100% FREE.
For more details on Minetest, visit minetest.net.

After 1 week of the project (5/29/22-6/4/22), this is how far we've gotten. The first block was placed at 42.25, -72.6545 on May 29, 2022 and now construction has continued further north to 42.2508, -72.6538 as of June 5, 2022 with most of that road completed nearly to East St. No houses have been built yet, but partial driveways have been built along with a partial hill. Due to copyright reasons, there will not be a IRL comparison photo at this time, but I hope there will be one by the end of Week 2. (6/5/22-6/11/22)
