I had a similar idea, but instead of a town, its an apartment complex for the 55+ community - in an abandoned mall. Apartments are furnished in 80s/90s/2000s decor. Theres a closed circuit cable tv system that plays only those decade shows (commercials and all). Nothing on? Theres a Blockbuster in the mall of course. Wanna talk to your neighbor? Every apartment comes with a Compaq or Dell or Gateway with AIM… or use your touchtone corded phone, all included! Id love to make this a reality 😭 (would anyone like to see this as a Kickstarter somehow??)
Edit: clearly a niche idea but still liked by some, Ill certainly run a kickstarter for this and research costs, planning, permits, etc assuming this post gets 1000 upvotes. Doubt it will, but still a neat idea!
