17th- 19th  centuries

Group 3 –the 32nd Day of the Simulation. The T-junction was created with nearby Strong Centers and the Central Market. Each center supports one another and the T-junction. The evolving structure began to generate diversity in the city form.

Group 3 –the 36th Day of the Simulation. The participants established the T-junction as a large square adjoining the Central Market.

Group 3 –the 39th Day of the Simulation. Tung Ban Pagoda (including the Bell Tower, the Front Hall and the Rear Hall) was created as a Strong Center. The pagoda’s components support one another and are in turn strengthened by a row of houses behind them. On a larger scale, the Pagoda was also enhanced by the T-junction pattern and several nearby centers of  different sizes and shapes. This spatial relationship created mutually supporting Centers.

Group 3 – the 47th Day of the Simulation: an Aerial View. The T-junction and surrounding patterns: Tung Ban Pagoda, Tung Ban Palace, inns and warehouses, and the entrance to the Central Market. There was strength in these centers, including the Strong Center (in all mentioned patterns), Thick Boundary (the inns and warehouses), Good Shape (the palace and pagoda), Positive Space (Main Street, pagoda, and palace), and Continuity (Main Street).

Group 3 –the 47th Day of the Simulation: a Street View. The quality that an avatar perceived on the ground was the most important criterion for assessing the urban space. This scene of Main Street showed the lack of spatial enclosure and the feeling of street wall.
