For that matter, I could just skew a regular plate on the y-axis.

Sure, we can put it across the street from the Chapel ;-)

I agree. I installed sidewalks today, including walks for a cool park on the
town square. (I wonder how much that many white 2x2 tiles would cost?) Grass
would be great, but it's a problem for the street segments. The street and
the surrounding area are stuck being the same color, and green roads _do not_
look good. I started planting the little rounded trees along the streets, but
they didn't do justice to the buildings. I think big trees using the leaf
parts are needed. Has anyone designed some of these?
Other planned additions include street signs and lamps and firehydrants
(anyone feel free to help me out with these.)

It'll be fun to see how big this thing can get before I start having computer
troubles :-)
