Yeah... That's kind of what I was thinking too... The clock tower could be there, connected with the architectural supports of the ironwork for Nelson Square.

Sare... Cause I have no idea how you're building the map...
Let me please try to start to catch up with all you've done.
The central area with Henson and Ganz-Cooney Streets... Is the Muppet Theater on the extreme left or extreme right central spot of the map?
Hope to hear from you soon.

Hey, it's great to see you guys paying such detail to the worlds created in various fan-fictions! I'd just take a moment to state for those coming to this thread who maybe haven't read the fan-fictions involved, or who are wanting to write their own fan-fictions, that Hensonville is not canonical to the Muppets, Disney, and JHC. It is a fan-based layout of a town that could exist where the Muppet could live.

Others create their own renditions of the Muppet's town, and location in relation to Sesame Street, etc. So, if you are a new Muppet Writer reading this thread, don't feel you need to stick to this map of the town here.

That said, good job everyone and I'm not causing trouble just stateing a couple of things. Please do continue. :stick_out_tongue:

Hate to burst the bubble, Beau. Techinally it is canonical. VERY techinally of course.

The Directions said:
Get your Muppets From Space DVD (if you have it).

Watch when Kermit first picks up the newspaper to read it.

It will in front of his face. Slow down the DVD, then pause it when the front page is clearly visible.

Then, zoom in. It will clearly read "Hensonville Observer".
That's how I figured I could use that for the name of the town. :smile: Now..the town isn't named Hensonville, but their newspaper was, so I took creative licence of course.

Thanks Bo... The map isn't by any means exhaustive... More can be added to it with others' fanfictional tales.

That said... Few more pieces of the puzzle can now be plugged in.
1 The Muppet Theater, is on the extreme lefthand central spot. Good, that helps cut down on wordiness and confusion.
2 Henson Street is the top horizontal street, with all its shops as mentioned above. Good.
3 Ganz-Cooney Street is the lower horizontal street, with all its shops as mentioned above. Again, good.
4 Nelson Square, with its Victorian London outer ironworks architectural appearance is on the lower lefthand corner... OK, it's coming together now.

New pieces that now connect.
5 East Henson Street: This street's corner connects with Henson Street at the Bat Bolt & Skull Toy Shop, running upwards on the map.
6 West Henson Street: This street's corner connects with Henson Street at Jim's Coffee House running upwards on the map.
*Note: If there are any additional shops on Henson Street, please LMK to know where West Henson and Henson Streets meet.
7 Hunt Street: There's a lane wide enough for vehicles to transit between Henson and Ganz-Cooney Streets. Well, another widened vehicular lane connects with this one forming an outwards-facing hammer or T-shape. This then allows Hunt Street to be on the other side, running parallel to the Muppet Theater, and would be across from West Henson and whatever other street connects with Ganz-Cooney's corner at The Three Candles Library... If it is that Hunt Street extends that long.

OK... Ready to get the next pieces to keep connecting.

Mmhmm!

Well, that...is true, but the Muppets may have created that paper so as not to reveal their true location. (Um...did I just say that?)

Anyway, in terms of new Muppet Writers, this place and it's locations within it are not the map by which all stories have to stick, if that makes sense and is ok for me to say? And that's all I am saying here really.

Had a friend of mine describe Sara's new Hensonville map... And there are major reworkings that need to be done.
Suffice it to say that I'll have to read through A Little Knight Music and some of Sadie's Stories again.
Will report when I've got something to say on the town plans.

Can a video arcade be added to Hensonville too? I can put in the classic arcade games of the 80's. Along with Muppet video game favorites like Muppet Party Cruise and Muppet Racing.

There's also the Muppet Dorm house and Sara and Scooter's movie house.
