Editorial interest 89/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A parody visitor guide for Notcross, Georgia, a fictional small city that finally starts building the future it spent forty years planning.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-25 issue.

Field notes

The project uses the information architecture of a municipal tourism portal—visitor categories, quick-access documents, event listings, development news, and public-space statistics—to sustain a fictional civic history. Its central chronology divides Notcross into “Old Notcross 1889–2025,” a March 4, 2025 “Great Notcross Epiphany,” and a current era. The page also supplies operational-looking figures, including 212 parking spaces, 31 reoccupied storefronts, and a claimed nine-day permit turnaround.
