Is anyone else's Resident Services very close to their airport?

[Sara?]

My Resident Services is very close to my airport as well. It took a while of deciding how I wanted it to look but this is how I've decorated it for right now:

I've been going with a fairytale kind of theme for my island, and you can see resident services to the left side just above the hedges. It's added a lot of atmosphere and I really like it. :3 Still a work in progress as I'm planning to add more.

Lovely path . BTW Is it still possible to get this furniture ( glowing mushroom ) or was it from a special event ?

Pretty sure that's a southern hemisphere thing. You get them in the fall, like cherry blossoms.

I like that it's close to my airport, but... it's not centered oof

 

[ParabolaBeam]

Wow those ARE really close! Mine's pretty far back comparatively.

 

[deerprongs]

Those are insanely close! Mine is actually right against the beach which I thought was unique, so I deliberately chose that map! Previously I had issues with getting it too close to my airport, and it was difficult to do much; I love where my resident services is now!

Mine's close and off-centered and this is how it looks so far

It's wip and underdetailed rn, but I think it looks alright, might replace the ponds with some pine trees, the airport is just a few tiles offscreen :3

mine is pretty close and i wish i had more space to landscape a nice entrance like i've seen a lot of people do! it makes me wanna restart sometimes but i tried my best to make it work

Cant wait fall!!!! hahahaha and we still have to go through summer

 

[Nooblord]

Wow, so many amazing entrances in this thread, even with the limitations you were faced with. I feel I got suuuper lucky with my map, so I commend everyone who was able to make their RS placement work. Well done

I’d build a waterfall in front of the airport. That will disconnect the gap between them and now you can design your own path to the resident center

Mine's about 7 tiles in front of it as well. Was really frustrating when I wanted to do a cool waterfall entrance, but I redid some things! I've just put the shops next to it, sand in front of it, and fenced it off like a boardwalk kind of thing before you enter the 'main' island! For town halls like that, I think it's best to just make the entrance more horizontal than vertical.

Yes, my airport and resident services are very close to each other. I have no idea what I’m going to do but I hate it so much.

they're a fall item, i was able to get the recipe from a friend in the southern hemisphere :3 but its also possible to time travel to november and grab the recipe from a balloon c:

 

[Amissapanda]

Mine is quite close, but it's off to the right of it a little. I was too excited to start playing the game as soon as it came out, so I didn't pay attention to maps or reset my island.

 

[EpicDoodle]

mine's pretty close to the airport, but with just enough space for me to create a "double" plaza of sorts ?? it's hard to explain but here's an image:

I just put a fountain surrounded by some benches in that area :') my only gripe is that it's slightly off centered but oh well;;;

 

[Mairen]

The creativeness you guys are displaying with the limited space is very inspiring!

 

[nyanicat]

Yes! Mine is stupid close to the airport and I really regret it, but it's too late for me to start over now so I have to live with it :/ Still trying to find a way to decorate it so I hate it less.

 

[Aardbei]

mine's pretty close, too. and it's one square to the right of my airport, which makes things infuriatingly difficult.

Same but on the left

So, after seeing this thread I finally decided to arrange this area.

I made a diagonal path to the right leading to a workbench, and then to the left in order to arrive right in front of the town hall entrance
And then I put a tree and I made a little cliff on the right, trying to hide the town hall from the airport, so nobody could tell at first glance it's not centered

 

[astermallow]

mine is RIGHT in front of the airport (like you can basically see the doors just by standing there), and it's one tile off center. like, I don't need it to be perfectly centered if it wasn't visible right from the airport. and it also would be fine being that close if it was either perfectly centered or more than 1 off. but just one single tile makes it sooo unsatisfying lol.

so I just kinda tried to hide it as much as possible. there's still a tiny patch to walk directly to the building if needed, but I put double paths leading to it on the sides instead. (decorations/paths/fences aren't finished at all obv, but these are the actual structures)

 

[Rosewater]

Mine's close and off center. The open space is just the size for a fountain and a few extra squares of path. I don't really like it but I'm not going to restart over it.
