Original first post from here:
So Far Harbor is a strange place. The Commonwealth is a strange place. There are aliens. There will also be floating islands of rock.
Some say the islands in the sky came from deep in the cosmos, ancient rocks of unknown minerals reacting to the radiation within the Far Harbor Fog, keeping aloft since their arrival. Those not afraid have ventured close, and seizing the opportunity have make them a place to feel safe.

I thought I would play around a little before committing.
The shack foundations in the bottom foreground is the location of the museum of the RotC city plan.
So I plan on doing a standalone city plan for the contest, and have a separate optional layout that you can import into the RotC plan if you want to punish your machine with close to 40 settlers and their plots, (when the RotC plan gets sorted and it doesn't delete the build zone at level 1).

You can find the windows in the WRK > Structures > Glasshouse
They are actually half windows, but i stack one on top of the other to get the height
