Lemp/Cherokee position under streets

Post by trickykegstands »

I've always wondered how the lemp/cherokee cave is positioned under the brewery and streets. Have a look at this pic, do you think I got it right?

How did you map the other side of the highway? By other side I mean the south side of 55.

No, that's pretty far off.

it's almost a wild ass guess. I based it on one manhole cover that is at an intersection and the iron door.

Anyone have any advice to make it better? Or, is this one of those things that is better left unknown?

Better left unknown. Or at least un-posted-publicly-about...

I was right next to the brewery today. This is my first time seeing her. She's gorgeous.

Try rotating the cave about thirty degrees counterclockwise.

Also, the cave is not nearly that large. Shrink it about half that size...

Tricky has the brewery cave bug. Unfortunately the entance to Cherokee Cave has been brutally raped. So for those who care, please use discretion. And yeah, that overlay is waaay off.

the whole dig the hole in the basement thing... well you would want to make sure that if you buy a house in that area you would have that right.

I know in Springfield that the huge company under the land at Division and 65 that will not be named has the rights to that area and you cant dig down into it. I would assume Lemp did something similar there.

Well, since they sealed off the "only" entrance. I say we dig in. How would they ever find out since it's locked up? Hehe..
