Tall Town is all about height. I like Bradtropolis, but it doesn't give me the feeling of height when I wander through. The deal with Tall Town is that all towers are 64 high minimum! Nothing shorter. Most of the buildings will be 128+.

Then, after watching a bunch of iron mine videos, it occurred to me that I could get anywhere from two to three villages into four of the 128+ towers and have some pretty serious iron output. Alas, 1.8 changed the village rules and killed off iron farms completely. So, Tall Town is Tall Ghost Town until I get around to making it something else. There is talk of village rules being re-implemented in 1.9 to fix iron mining, but won't know until then.
