Why might the author have used such vivid, descriptive details to describe the town?

Answer: To allow you to use imagery to see the town mentally.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normally an author would only use descriptive vivid words to allow you to imagine something, for example “ A white rose with green petals sitting in a clear glass jar which was originally a cup for drinking water.” This sentence allows you to visualize the depiction.
