New Pride Land is a multi-estate "continent" stretching from 953 to 961 vertically and 733 to 741 horizontally on the grid map. It was founded by Sterling Whitcroft principally as a home for gay residents, although all are welcomed. The continent consists of several regions.

Landmarks

Among major landmarks on New Pride Land is Boots' Beach AKA Mission Beach (one of Second Life's most populous and popular gay & lesbian social destinations). While owned by Shawn & Boots Mission , it moved from the Provincetown ACS continent in 2007. Most of the SIMs are residential, with parcels for both rental and purchase in a variety of planned and free-form environments.

Also on visitors' lists are the Temple at Sparta, built by Scottie Menges, the Ewing Arts Gallery operated by Protogenes Ewing, the Episcopal Chapel of St. Matthew-by-the-Sea, the Mission Sea Promenade shopping area in Spice Islands sim. The Docklands urban build (Mission-Super-Mare) in the east of ER Highlands sim will close in mid July '09 due to restructuring plans of the continent.
