Description

Ladies and gentlemen, dragons and kaiju...
Welcome... to New Berk City...
 
2019 New-Berk City (or Neo-Berk)
An enormous high-tech, state-of-the-art metropolis on a constrained island where dragons and Viking descendants co-exist in the new millennium...

Where the Great Hall stood now stands the kilometer-tall Neo-Berk Military Hospital and Base; Where the Haddock home was now stands the New-Berk Government Hall (City Hall); Gobber's smith-shop is now a high-tech engineering and technological firm; the Dragon Hanger has been converted into Berk International Airport; where the Dragon Racing arena stood now stands the Haddock Dragon Stadium, a mixed-use sport stadium and convention center; the Viking Harbor is now a bustling cargo port and cruise/passenger terminal; where the water tower stood now stands the Ingerman Tower, an observation and telecommunications tower; a large suburban neighborhood and university stand where the old sheep fields used to be; and finally, across the entire peninsula, super-tall skyscrapers dominate the cityscape, including the famous Thorston Twin Towers. Also, across the Hofferson Bridge and below the Larson Planetarium are the expansive suburbs and shore-side communities. The old Dragon Training Academy has been renovated into a upscale primary/secondary/preparatory school.

And don't worry... dragons still play a HUGE role in Neo-Berkian life. Not only as transportation (used as motorcycles, cars, trucks, limos, taxes, buses, planes, helicopters, ships, etc.),  but also as pets and best companions. The NBPD and Jorgenson SWAT serve, patrol, and protect the city, using not only armed officers and state-of-the-art weaponry, but also dragons to assist as backup. There's hundreds of dragon species here, even hybrid dragons. Dragons are still the upside of Neo-Berk...

I got my inspiration from cyberpunk films Blade RunnerThe Matrix, and Akira ...
