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 Mission Brothers Gay Beach (one of Second Life's most populous and popular gay & lesbian social destinations). While owned by 10KHz Tone & Rasmus Pennell, it moved to its actual place in northeast quarter of Spice Islands sim. 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 ancient Greek installation on Hylas or the medieval abbey ruin on the central island of Pallas sim.
