Posted project update #5We Have A Couple of Offshore Islands in Maine, USA for You to Choose
Post CommentHi Landicity Kickstarter Team,
We have got a couple of island candidates for you and the Earth Day Project. If we can get people to help, we can lock in one of these. But, we can not do it without all your help -- thanks so far.We attached a video of some of the islands. They range from 40 acres to more than 500 acres. The island photo includes a 200+ acre island with an imposed grid. The small pink blocks represent how we would place Planuts aroung the island using 4 1/4 Hectare blocks.
Each has it's own personality and certainly the fragile environment on each island is different. Some will be around after global warming - some might not depending upon the amount of sea level rise!
- 1 Hectare = 10,000 sq m; ~ 2.5 acres
- 1/4 Hectare = 2500 sq m = 250,000 Planuts
- 1 Planut = 100 sq cm
- 1,000,000 Planuts/island == maximum we will make availabale in 1/4 Hectare blocks
Please take a look and send us a vote on which one you like.thx

Posted project update #3Some great islands for us to consider
Post CommentJoin for $1, %15, or $35 for a Landicity Maine Island Deed.
Here are two of the islands we have on our list as candidates. Once you help us hit our goal, we will put the option to purchase on one of our candidiate Maine Islands.
These islands are nice, pristine, diverse and have a multi-faceted personality. Each is larger than 50 acres. They are so different from the ocean side versus the land facing side. Beaches, coves calm on one side; roaring ocean waves, rocks and salt spray on the other.
We will post some other islands in the future during our project.
Please help us spread the work to all your friends. Send them a link http://kck.st/9J7gUZ

Posted project update #1Well, we've started.
Post CommentWe have targeted a couple of islands worth getting. But, we have to network out to all our contacts and make sure the project to own the good you do succeeds.
