OUR OLD EMERALD TOWN HOUSES
We had a great time making our models. There is a local pub in this area and also all these others........... a hotel, farm, barber, coffee shop, police station, doctor, post-office, gold office, general store, gun shop and a church. Just like Emerald used to be.
There are 13 shops and 4 houses, which makes 17 buildings to make up one whole town of Emerald.
In 1960 there were 10 shops, in 1970 there were 20, in 1980 35 shops, in 1990 37 and in 2000 there are 60 shops....by Jess
