I've seen that map, someone has made an assumption and others have carried it forward in desperate hope that it is true. If you have noticed all housing districts have certain characteristics, this has none of those characteristics. Add to that SE would never add housing for players in this manner, having the playerbase build 1 area up then put the district the entire community just worked and invested in up for sale to a few lucky players who can get up at 5 in the morning and race to the few desirable plots. If they wanted to lose 80% of all of their players and commit harikari afterwards they would do this. For the sake of sanity, and faith in SE I have no choice but to say all claims that this is a player housing district are incorrect, SE is trolling us hard to make us want to invest in this content and hope like hell that i'm right. IF this is a housing district as people hope, then Doman enclave, Mor Dhona, and Idyllshire must follow suit open up that housing there is no excuse not to.
Imagine the uproar, if after a year plus of leading us along to complete the area SE came out and said congratulations. "Now Ishgard housing will be available but only to FC's at first, we may make housing available to players at a later date." A large, medium or small house still costs the same but we built that why is it restricted and why do we have to pay for it? When SE builds and designs a housing district they can make these kind of restrictions we have no assumed ownership so people don't question it. They simply lament their luck and hate their lives a bit more. But when everyone worked to build that, spend hours in the field gathering for it, spent money and time and energy to build it SE thinks they own it, the community thinks they own it, this will not end well. But don't worry SE will put a huge uninhabited Apartment there so you can purchase an FC room to put all your yard furnishings SE keeps giving you for holiday events.
