Thanks for the comments! So I've been again playing Cities: Skylines and was struggling to get back to Halvoo. Not because I was bored with, but because modeling a city from scratch with Sketchup is just so much more tedious work than building it with C:S and seeing my city come alive. Anyway, here I am again and I'm determined to get the city center finished.
Here's an update: Before the railroad and Uudenmaankatu street were ran through it in the late 19th century, Hernesaari island was a home to a small fishing community. Now it's just a favourite place for Halvoo's recreational fishers.
