City map generator
A great city, street by street: wards inside the wall and suburbs along the roads, a river under its bridges, docks and a lighthouse on the coast. The halls, barracks, forts and colleges a city needs stand where they should, and the camps, mills and inns outside the walls each come with a name.

What it makes
A city's institutions
A town hall on the market square, barracks by a main street, a fort at the wall or on the shore, colleges round green quads, and guildhalls, almshouses and a customs house among the blocks.
A working harbour
Piers well apart over open water, boats and ships moored alongside, warehouses on the docks and a lighthouse on its mole, its beam sweeping the sea after dark.
Life outside the walls
An army's camp by a main road, a merchants' caravan, a watermill, a coaching inn, tournament lists and a lumber camp at the edge of the woods, each named on the map's key.
Down to the 5-foot square
Sign in and click any street, the keep or the docks to draft that spot as a game map, with the city's houses where it has them, linked back to the city.

Questions
Is it free?
Yes, while we're in early access. You can make, edit and export maps with no account. Sign in when you want to keep them and link them together.
What scale is it?
An area map, a mile or two of ground, for getting around and seeing the place. For fights, draft a game map from any spot on it at 5 feet to a square.
Can it sit on a bigger map?
Yes. Sign in, roll a world or a region, and click a city on it: the new map takes its coast, river and roads from the spot, and stays linked to it.
How are the maps made?
By rules, not by drawing a picture: the generator lays out the map from a seed, so the same seed gives the same map. Some of the art it draws with is made with image models.
