Scientific paper

Gowdy spacetimes are generalized to admit two commuting spatial "local" Killing vectors, and some new varieties of them are presented, which are all closely related to Thurston's geometries. Explicit spatial compactifications, as well as the boundary conditions for the metrics are given in a systematic way. A short comment on an implication to their dynamics toward the initial singularity is made.
