History

Colonel Jeb Star founded the territory of Fort Plymouth in the year 1797. In the early half of the 19th century. Fort Plymouth grew into a prosperous trading community luring prospectors all the way from Canada to ply their traders. With the establishment of the continental railroads system in the 1860s, Fort Plymouth developed into a thriving cattle town with large ranches slaughterhouses and stockyards.

1897 was the year of the "Great Fire". It earned this appellation when a stockyards smokehouse was set ablaze, burning most Fort Plymouth to the ground. Developers and architects rebuild the city into a living symbol of modernism, and named it after it's founding father.

Cry for Justice and Brightest Day

During Cry for Justice Prometheus decimated a large portion of the city, which ironically left wreckage in the shape of a star.

It killed many people, including Green Arrow's granddaughter, Lian Harper. During Brightest Day the white entity took Boston Brand (previously Deadman) to the wreckage and a forest sprouted up around him. It continues to grow up larger, attracting all sorts of attention, from the JSA and S.T.A.R. Labs to LexCorp. Green Arrow currently lives within the forest.
