Just a quick thought about this.

I know you can't change the original buildings structure as that is part of every shard.

BUT...when EM Faine Morgan was still on Origin, we had a nice little story arc involving a citizen by the name of Rosemerry.

She had recently returned to Brit and used to be the Kings cook and wanted a shop of her own.

There is an unused building in East Brit that was turned into her Bakery. No changes were made to the original structure but the interior was re-designed and remains that way.

The Crafters of the shard even helped build the furniture for it...as you can see :)

Kyronix....would things like THIS be possible? Just taking unused empty buildings and turning them into something else that COULD be permanent as the outer structure is not changed at all?
Any shard specific decorations in the city areas ultimately cause issues when we are implementing future content. Cities are logically a jump off point for new content, and when there are unknown bits of decoration floating around it's problematic dealing with that level of variety and causes unforeseen issues. These can range from errant teleporters that allow players to bypass quest chains to areas where new additions clash with existing additions causing movement/spawn issues. For those reasons builds that find themselves within the hearts of a city are limited by time.
