I think the feet are kinda fun - in keeping with other fun elements on the map. They may be a bit dark, and they could be confused as a one-way attack.
I'm not sure if you've reworked the bonuses lately, but regardless I'll make another argument for East Trinity being a +3, or even a +2... it's the same size as Redlynch but even easier to hold with one less enemy at it's gates than Redlynch, and it's linear layout makes it easier to take in stages. Couple it with Gordonvale and you have a 6 terit, 3 border +6. Given that all of the bonuses tend a bit high (which is fine) I'd say +3 - this would give it the same combo bonus as Lake Morris (no region title?) plus Redlynch: +5, six territories, 3 borders to hold. It's one less than Northern Beaches, which is the same size, but with Northern Beaches you get nothing until you wrap up the entire thing.
There doesn't seem to be a region name for the region on the water, with the Airport. I was going to say that it could be the same bonus as Corridor Southern, which starts with the benefit of having a neutral protecting its rear border. With all of those water attack routes, that nameless region is going to be the map's punching bag.
edit: I just saw the CBD... kinda gets lost.
