I don't know about that.....even though El Castillo is covered in grass and the top is a little bit bent, it is fairly intact and close to the original shape, just very overgrown. And I'm sure that the inside would be almost fine too.
However, it is a massive pyramid (one of the strongest shapes/structures) so I suppose that a normal stone house could have collapsed completely.
It would probably still be more recognizable than an Osgiliath war-bombed house though.
Point well taken. (I think that I actually heard my house cracking this past winter.....it was bad)People are forgetting how far north Annuminas is. All that ice would really ruin the buildings....
One thing you forget is that the people reused the stones of the Hadrian Walls and forts in order to build ohter buildings. Such a thing wouldn't be a problem in Arnor due to the lack of population.

I dunno about the palace....the vaulted ceilings and dome are pretty massive. 2000 years of the walls straining to hold everything up, with no maintenance at all.....After all those reflexions, I think the normal houses should be heavily ruined, though with much more rubble than the hadrian fort, and the great buildings, such as the walls, the palace, etc. should be less damaged.
lake weatherJust saying on our map the furthest north part of Annuminas is even with the furthest south part of Fornost so they should be about the same amount ruined from that perspective
I wasnt planning on keeping a "pre ruin" layout for the reason that the flooded district is already ruined as well as some of the builds next to it - I dont think it would make sense to save a sorta ruined cityYeah, I think it's for the best to compromise a bit of physical reality for the sake of preserving our artists' hard work. It's the same justification for keeping Ost-in-Edhil so intact, when after a few thousand years it'd maybe be a big mound of dirt with a few stone blocks poking through.
Speaking of ruining and stuff, I know that @Fireinferno13 is starting work on that before the whole layout is finished, but is there going to be any composite backup of the whole thing pre-ruin? I keep thinking of this old idea that I still hope will happen when Q/someone has a bit of free time to do it, and it would kind of suck to have Annuminas not represented there.
Will there be any signs of ranger encampment in or around the city? There's one in the Shire only a few hundred blocks south of it I think.I wasnt planning on keeping a "pre ruin" layout for the reason that the flooded district is already ruined as well as some of the builds next to it - I dont think it would make sense to save a sorta ruined city

I'd mostly go for the farming houses here - they're easier to maintain (because smaller) and close to the fields anyway. Maybe even give them as much life as the small villages around the countryside...However there were a few Rangers of the North that did still settle in the city, so maybe you can aswell either make very few houses simply fixed (e.g. easy wooden roof attached to old stone fundaments) or a few tents in the city.
