I'm not entirely sure if this should go here or in help, so I'm just gonna bite the bullet and put it here.
What are the current building plans for Regalia?
I've noticed that recently, there's been a lot of renovation work in the city. In other words, a lot of renovation work is being started, but not completed. It's starting to confuse me actually, as more and more streets are being edited in seemingly out-of-place ways and not completed. This is leaving many half-built, empty structures around Regalia and some streets that are crazily big, and some that are too small. In my opinion, it's not the best work that I've seen world staff do and I'm rather confused as to what the plan is.
A few examples:
Apologies if this was a bit of a cheeky thread, I didn't mean it to sound too critical / mean to the staff. I really love the work that you do. But it pains me to see so many areas going incomplete while new projects are being taken-on. Is the whole of the city planned to be renovated, bit-by-bit? How is this fit this around the current owned houses and businesses? I'm rather concerned about the buildings I own being torn down or ending up in the middle of a construction site without prior warning.
Thankyou for reading, and I hope if nothing else this thread may provide a few ideas and a bit of outside insight. Perhaps a survey on what players would like to see around Regalia is in order?

A few examples:
- The Elven district.
The Elven district has been completed for almost 6 months now, and yet its houses have not been opened to rent, while other areas have been built and completed. What is the progress on this?
- The Harbour district.
This is an odd one. While it has been completed, I've noticed a few substantial flaws with this district. The path to get to it is incredibly long and convoluted, and involves going through the Ithanian district. I don't think this was thought out very well, as despite staff's best efforts it doesn't often get used thanks to it being very out of the way.
- The Regalian main street.
This was recently renovated to change the layout of a few side streets and add some very large shop buildings. It's a nice idea, more player-run shops are always good, however it is the street itself that bothers me. It is substantially bigger than all of the other streets, and I think some flower beds through the centre or something similar could help this to feel more filled-in.
- The old Cathedral/Opera House area.
This area has been completely demolished and rebuilt a few couple of months ago. I've seen steady progress on the area, the market in particular is very cute and lovely, but the interior of many houses is still yet to be completed.
My main complaint is there are a lot of completely flat walls, both here and in other in-progress areas. (Especially brick/hardened clay mix walls.) I'm confident in world staff's ability to give them a bit of depth, but after a month of no progress - and yet progress on other parts of the city - I'm beginning to get anxious.
