City name: The Penguin Docklands
City location (Live map link, coordinates, not biome, include world name): http://smp.opticraft.net/map/#/-26/64/171/-2/2/0 ; X: -44 Z: 172 ; Member world
Contributors: 100penguin; Djarchitect
Mayor (Only one - this is the zone owner): 100penguin
Approximate dimensions: 220x220
Number of active residents: 5
Number of completed, decorated and furnished buildings: 12 completed buildings, 5 furnished, all decorated. Plans for more buildings below.
What state is the project in, and what are your plans for its future, if any: Roughly midway from completion, hoping to expand more into the water and reclaim some land, build houses, and utility buildings; Public farms, buildings and blocks of flats.
Why should we grant this city protection? This entire project is placed very near spawn, so is easily accessible for newcomers to the world. Because of this I think that it would look nicest to have a large scale completed project that shows off the world and it's contributors. However being near spawn means that it is also a prime target for care free griefers that want an easy target. Because of it's size and shape it is very difficult to protect the entire thing without an enormous amount of protection stones and money. I think that it could save staff time and energy from dealing with griefers. Finally, I feel that many of the valuable and well built cities are far away from spawn so wholly inaccessible for walking distance trips, and this project could provide an opportunity for many new or inexperienced players to get a foothold on the world and it's surroundings, as well as benefiting from the architecture and design.
Problems: 1 - There are 5 buildings in the area that i need protecting, that are not mine. most of these are uninhabited, however i would like to thoroughly check this, and not plough on regardless as this would be inconsiderate.
2 - The area I need protecting will constantly need to be resized, as i am always building. the extensions are limited greatly by the spawn protection. Therefore, i'd need to expand elsewhere, and this may be difficult.

This looks nice but I'm going to need some borders because I really cant tell where it ends or begins.
