Locations
Spawn Room
The spawn room contains three backpacks, a grenade backpack and the flag. Each backpack contains little armor and health, so at the start of a round, an Engineer should repair each teammate's armour before the round starts. The flag and grenades shold be reserved for fast classes, such as the Scout and Medic. This room leads to the Balcony and Streets.

x Balcony
The Balcony is a small strip of land that connects the Spawn Room, Street and Building together.
Sneaky attackers can get to the Cap Point by using the Balcony to bypass the Street and go to the part of the Building that connects to the Cap Point. However, they should be aware of people coming out of the Spawn Room. It only takes one person noticing the attacker to set off the entire defense.
Defenders shouldn't worry about protecting this area. Most attackers don't use it, and the ones that do risk being caught by a teammate coming out of Spawn. If a defender notices that enemies are using it to access the Cap Point, they should set set up a temporary Sentry Gun or a HWGuy until the attackers get scared off.

The Bridge
The Bridge is where the Red and Blue sides of the map meet. Defenders usually don't set up here, so attackers are free to fly by and shoot each other. This area leads to the Streets.

Cap Area
The Cap Area is where the enemy team deposits their flag for a capture. It's tight design makes it easy for attackers to get caught in Pipe Traps and Sentry Gun.
Attackers should be very careful when approaching this area. This area is a prime location for Sentry Guns. Soldiers, Scouts and Medics should have their anti-SG weapons (Rocket Launcher, Nailgun and Super Nailgun) out when they approach this area. Defending Demomen like to lay Pipe Traps in the area, so defenders should try to bait them to that they detonate early. Atacking Demomen can shoot Blue or Pipe Grenades around corners to catch defenders off-guard. Snipers can be used to gravely injure or outright destroy sentires; one fully charged shot can destroy level 1 and 2 Sentries, while a level 3 Sentry will be on the verge of death.
Defenders should focus on this area; it's tightness makes it difficult for attackers to get back alive. Engineers should place Sentry Guns near or flanking the Cap Point and tend to them 24/7; attackers usually have their anti-SG weapons out when they approach this area. Demomen should place Pipe Traps and hide. HWGuys should place themselves behind the jeep, but to the side of the actual cap point, so that can take out enemies if the manage to slip by the initial defense. Remember to have Engineers repair armour between waves.
