Further west is '''Centre Crossing''', marked with the remains of the '''Clock Tower''', a popular gathering spot for locals and visitors alike. The Tower itself was destroyed upon the reclamation of Cyrene from the Tsol'teth.
West of the entrance gates is the newly built [[Resistance Bridge]] commemorating the formation of the Cyrenian Resistance and its efforts to retake the Tsol'teth-occupied city during the [[Tsol'teth#Third Black Wave|Third Black Wave]] from Sarapin 799 to Scarlatan 800 AF.  


Between the gates of Cyrene and '''Centre Crossing''' is the newly exposed river, [[Shuun'eludiela]], running southward.
Going down from the '''Resistance Bridge''', one can travel the length of the [[Shuun'eludiela]] running southward, revealed at the retaking of Cyrene.


At the far end of '''Centre Street's''' vibrant shopping district sits the '''Imperium''', an imposing building of classic design and the seat of Cyrene's government. The gardens of the Imperium, home to a group of [[firefly|fireflies]], are world renowned for their beauty and variety.
Further west from the bridge is '''Centre Crossing''', noted with the rise of its iconic '''Cyrene Clocktower''', a marvel of engineering and timekeeping which marks the changes of [[day]] throughout the city. The original clocktower was destroyed in the retaking of Cyrene from its Tsol'teth occupiers and restored a decade later.

In the west of the city is the '''Lyceum''' with the world's largest (by tome count) library, the [[Prosperian Athenaeum]]. Six themed collections aid in finding the correct book. The official librarian [[Zophia]] is an adept guide to the library's holdings.
