Some of the most notable and iconic structures in the city are Bubblebridge, Bubblemall, Measan Stadium, Bubble Needle Observatory, Puustaff Tower and others.

New Bubbletown is very frequently referred to as Bubbletown. In almost every case, players that say Bubbletown are referring to Map 11's New Bubbletown, and not Map 10's Bubbletown.

History

Early Days

A panorama of the early construction of New Bubbletown in Map 11, taken in 14 August 2021.

New Bubbletown started out in a flat and hilly area near spawn. TBoneX07 established the city after building a cobblestone border on the shores of the town, and put signs around saying that New Bubbletown was established.

The first buildings to go up were the PuuPath Inc. Headquarters, MiningYourOres's brick tower and Bubblemall, all located in the Downtown district of Burghian. Bubblemall's influence helped expand the city due to the traffic of players coming in to purchase people's stuff.

After a while the city was abandoned due to bubbleGuy192's harsh treatment toward the New Bubbletown Authority and the lack of motivation.

The New Bubbletown Authority Era

The New Bubbletown Authority was created by bubbleGuy192 to manage the city. The authority included people such as bubbleGuy192, TBoneX07 and many of bubbleGuy192's friends who had no correlation to Puucraft. This caused a lot of controversy amongst the Authority, and due to the demanding and bossy attitude from bubbleGuy192, construction and motivation in the city slowed and deteriorated.

TBoneX07 and salthepal128 asked bubbleGuy192 to make the New Bubbletown Authority more balanced, and bubbleGuy192 agreed. On 17 October 2021, bubbleGuy192 made the new authority which was comprised of the main city owners as well as some builders that helped with the city. However, despite the more balanced authority structure, bubbleGuy192's very demanding and adamant behavior persisted.

Because of this, TBoneX07 removed bubbleGuy192 and dissolved the authority on 6 November 2021. After this, the New Bubbletown Authority was dissolved and was replaced with the New Bubbletown Discord.

Post-Authority Era

After bubbleGuy was removed, TBoneX07 and salthepal128 began expanding the city, building 20 new skyscrapers in 7 days, and expanding further out into the Downtown district of Mesome and the Uptown districts of Sarnic and Measan. This new era of New Bubbletown was much more peaceful and quaint as bubbleGuy192 was no longer around to boss people around.

Dormant Era

TBoneX07 and others started to become more and more inactive starting in the latter half of 2022 as interest in the server in general decreased. This means that the city is either barely or no longer maintained and very few buildings have been built recently. However, plots are still given away to players interested in building in the city.

Notable Builds

Some notable builds throughout the city include:

Bubblebridge

The Bubblebridge built by TBoneX07 and salthepal128. It is the largest Suspension Bridge in Map 11 and possibly the largest Suspension Bridge ever on Puucraft and it took a month to build.

Measan Stadium

It is a massive indoor stadium featuring a modular arena for PvP and Spleef. The Stadium took a week to complete, and was built by TBoneX07, salthepal128, Existing_Player, Bluecrafter07 and others. The stadium features 12 skyboxes, shop spaces, locker rooms, and a lot of seats. In total the stadium can hold about 960 people, which is a little more than the number of people in the Puucraft Discord server as of the time that this article is written. It is the largest Stadium ever in Puucraft history, and if Brixworth's stadium is ever built, Measan Stadium will be the largest indoor stadium in Puucraft history.

Bubblemall

Main Aricle: Bubblemall

The Bubblemall is a mall tower complex consisting of 3 identical buildings, made with snow, glass, and wood. The complex originally was planned to have 8 towers but later narrowed down to 4 and then 3 to save resources and maintain motivation.
