Shakoburg is a megastructure composed of multiple sub-structures connected directly into each other. While some of the buildings appear to be separate above-ground, they are in fact connected by underground passageways. | Shakoburg is a megastructure composed of multiple sub-structures connected directly into each other.

Shakoburg is the base of _Shako on the Survival 5 Labrador world of the Dogcraft Server. It is located one kilometer due east of the Spawn, along Pioneer Valley Road of the Road and Horse Network and Labrador East Station of the Community Rail Network.
About
Shakoburg is a megastructure composed of multiple sub-structures connected directly into each other. While some of the buildings appear to be separate above-ground, they are in fact connected by underground passageways.
The designs of the buildings are generally based on university campus buildings in North America, where multiple layers of Neoclassical, Gothic-revival, and Modern design exist closely together, often merging abruptly. The intention is to simulate the chaotic and often confusing built environment that results from university campuses being expanded and modified over decades and centuries.
The centerpiece of the base is the Industrial Tower, a replica of Bradfield Hall, a plant biology laboratory at Cornell University, by architect Ulrich Franzen. The automatic farms and super-smelter are all located inside the tower, with water streams carrying items to the Storage Hall. The Storage Hall is very loosely based on Barton Hall, an indoor athletic field and military training building also at Cornell University, by architect Lewis Pilcher.
Besides structures based on real-life buildings, several rooms in Shakoburg are based on _Shako's childhood dreams, including the Purple Dream Room and the Surreal Room. Two swimming pool rooms, both based on dreams and similar to common liminal-space depictions of swimming pools, are planned for Shakoburg.
The name "Shakoburg" was considered for Vitruvius in Survival 4, but _Shako felt it was too personal for what was intended to be a community build.
History
Shakoburg was originally intended to be built on Akita, and an outline for the Industrial Tower still exists at a small base owned by _Shako just under two kilometers north of Spawn on Akita. The project was moved to Labrador when the decision was made to build the Road and Horse Network on Labrador instead of Akita. The exterior of the Industrial Tower was the first completed phase, mostly in April 2022. The Storage Hall, the Visitor Center, and the East Atrium were started next and built slowly through Summer and early Autumn 2022. The Purple Dream Room and Surreal Room, the latter above the former, were completed in early January 2023.
