Centralia was a village in the Frontierlands, and the second officially-designated municipality in the first iteration of SpongeCraft Frontiers. It was one of four known NPC villages in the world, along with Littleroot Village, New Horizonia, and Pescare Part. It was first discovered by Meko1432, who lured its villagers away towards Littleroot in order to build an iron generator in the latter town. Centralia was initially ignored for utilization by players of SCF due to its poor, bizarre generation, which created such oddities as a large hole around the well at in the center of the village, and at least one cottage with its entrance door placed entirely under the grass. Due to its strange below-ground placement, the well was partly demolished and buried underneath the dirt paths.
In August 2023, Centralia was selected as the site of a building competition for Bubble Festival, and had most of its structures demolished by HawkbitAlpha in preparation for the event on August 26th. Afterwards, it was home to three buildings created in the competition, and had been expected to be the site of future construction events until SCF's first shutdown and subsequent loss of the server map in January 2024.
