Takeshi is a settlement on the Husky world of Survival 4 and is named after the popular Japanese gameshow Takeshi's Castle. It is a public space focused on creating a cohesive cityscape, using a modern Asian style to give guidance in this pursuit. The city can be found around 1500 blocks North-northwest of Spawn, near North Station and Prosperity. It is connected to the Road and Horse Network (RHN) via Takeshi Road and the Survival Railway Network (SRN) via the a loop line from North Station via Prosperity and continuing to M-Bay and West Station in Gaia.

Features

Takeshi land is split into multiple areas. The Takeshi Canal runs through the center of the landscape and along it are the most important parts of the city. Visitors arrive via rail at station square which features the Takeshi railway station and RHN shelter opposite. A dock is also in place, to allow access to the canal and sewer system. The main bridge out of the square leads to the Takeshi town hall.

The town hall is a large brick building with city information, and the main road runs through it, leading to a central plaza for the western side of the city. This western district is zoned for commercial purposes and is comprised of high-rise buildings. Across the Takeshi Canal to the north and east is the northern beaches area, a more relaxed area with smaller multi-story shop and apartment areas. Further south across the road entrance bridge is a storage shed and a small set of farms, across the river from the urban area.

History

Takeshi was founded by a handful of ex-Havana councilors as a more casual endeavor than their previous collaborative work. Some brainstorming was made before Survival 4 launch and a preferred coastal area close to spawn was successfully scouted an hour or so after Survival 4 opening on April 1st 2020.

Construction progress was gradual throughout the year, first by creating a starter area, and then moving that to the current storage space when construction of the Takeshi Canal began in mid April. Landscaping in some areas was completed by  SamanthaArgos throughout the same month, in preparation for the creation of the town hall ( Aeghu) and several roads.  _edo's construction of the Gaia-Takeshi Road (later renamed to simply Gaia Road) and subsequently, of Takeshi Road to Spawn led to the founding of the RHN. The ensuing months saw the construction of a smattering of urban builds, such as Cafe Fushi Nashi ( darparniox) and Associated Executive Services ( expedtadam) before a period of inactivity after September.

In 2021, progress resumed with the planning and building of station square on the eastern side of Takeshi Canal and the town hall in January, soon after followed by the completion of the railways from either end of the city in February, both by darparniox. Soon after, significant expansion to the city's canal network took place and the first high-rise buildings appeared, as well the first expansion into the northern beaches area by April.

In June, activity in the city increased markedly and infrastructure expanded. Many high-rise buildings were planned and several created, including the distinctive The Continental (_edo), as well as Northold Holdings-Takeshi ( eybwam) and Crumb (darparniox) and renovations to the existing Andesite Tower.
