Is there a list of improvements available when cities level up?

from Elemental Forums

I'm looking for a list of the improvements available when a conclave, fortress or town levels up through the various levels. Does such a list exist? I looked in the XML and I could not find where the improvements are denoted as being associated with the town levels. Just to clarify, I mean the three improvements you can pick between once when a town reaches a new level.

CoreAbilities show the special construction choices. Like the slums for a level 3 town being one of the city level up choices.

I've always wondered why these aren't displayed on the hover-ups for each choice (in the city level up window) - the information is quite important, and relevant to the decision.

On a related note:

Some of these feal really weak compared to the other choices.

I have never taken:

Conclave 5: Tower of the Magi <- Useless. AI spells on cities are neglectable and I do not think it would protect against ground targetted Volcano (?) The +10 Magic resistance is a joke. So basically if I have this super awesome tower enemy spells fail 10% more of the time? Yeah right. I totally need that before +2 Fire/+1 Water....

Fortress 4: Embassy <- Why....?? If my empire is so big it becomes a challenge to get unrest from amount of cities down I'll use Fortress 5: Onyx Throne instead not this bad improvement.
