Title: Freespace In Ottawa
Post by: Trivial Psychic on May 10, 2014, 09:10:16 pm: I accidentally came across this one while trying to plot a bus route for my mother-in-law. Who'd a thought that GTVA core systems ran right through my city of residence. :lol:

BTW, keep a look out for Cold Elements ;)

I'd say they are vaguely related to freespace, considering those are actual ~~stars~~ stars/constelation names of course.
Still it's awesome that someone named streets after celestial elements, you don't see that around here and instead get a bunch of heroe themed naming.

Makes even more sense considering you have to go through Capella to get there.

City Council needs to watch out for sinkholes.
