After all that work I scrapped everything from the generator floor up and replaced it with an apartment area.
The generator bank was moved to the quonset metal building on the waterside.
All the tables/chairs were scrapped out of the diner area for more beds, because they were unhappy with the 25 they had.
I've managed to become idolized by Cait and have achieved romance.

Dogmeat chills out when we stop by to decorate and try on different outfits and drop off junk and regear.
I've killed my father/son and hundreds of institute synths/scientists on my only trip to CIT where I am no longer welcome.
I am ok with it.
They aren't my real family anyways (line is blurring).
Nordhagen Beach is directly across the water from (Logan) the BoS base and almost in the shadow of the Prydwen Airship.
I don't like or trust them, but I'm not waging full on war with them because I have aquired a Power Armor addiction
(have 6 suits so far 5 of which are lit up on the generator row building roof).

Unfortunately Lady Lovelace and the other armatron racing bot aggroed provisioners travelling to and from the settlement when passing close to eastside downs.
I had to put one down and the others were lost to fights when aggroed by stupid supply pack brahmin.
Only 3 racing robots continue to race around the track now.
The endgame for this playthrough will be to bomb Bos base with artillery from the Castle.
Because I already killed Dr. Li when murdering everything that moved in CIT, before I realized that BoS wanted me to get her to join back w/ them, I screwed up getting Liberty Prime this time.
So **** it.
At least I don't have companions from 3 warring factions following me around ruining my opportunities for sweet sweet power armor like my first playthrough.
Be warned having both Deacon from the railroad and X6-88 from the institute follow you at the same time you do missions with Paladin Danse from BoS will sabotage like EVERYTHING THAT MATTERS.
But the fights they choose not to help each other in, that you can watch leisurely, are worth their weight in the hilarity of breaking the gamequests.
Deacon and X6-88 barely get along, and Paladin Danse hates them both equally. The Trifecta of dysfunctional followers.
