     Hello, and welcome to my fifth City Journal, Stone Creek. Stone Creek is a fictional town located somewhere on the east coast of the U.S. Most of Stone Creek is a sprawling suburb with many ponds, lakes, and of course, shopping centers. 

    And before I start, I'd just like to thank...

    Simgoober for, well, all of his BATs

    Mattb325 for his great houses which you will see many times here

    The NAM Team for, well, the NAM and NWM

    and all the other BAT'ers whose BATs I use.

    And here is a Mosaic, which is just a preview of things to come...

    Hope you enjoyed your stay at Stone Creek!

    See you soon!

    Schulmantor - Thank you! I have tried hard to try and create a realistic suburb.

    maxcormier - Thanks!

    DCMetro34 - Thank you! And to be honest, no, I didn't relot any of it. It is all Mattb325's work! And I will be keeping an eye out for your posts then. 2.gif

    While we were away, Stone Creek underwent some large expansions in two areas. Here are some before and after shots.

    Schulmanator - Thanks! And I'm ready to have you as a resident!

    Roger51 - Thank you, but I'm sure once you see the price tags on these homes, you'll be saying otherwise!

    StanislavSoltys - Thanks. 4.gif

    Nah I will just ask the bank for the loan, even though I have no job or deposit for the house....but it's all good 2.gif

    Nice pics, I just wondered if the RHW would look better in the last shot, rather than the OWR?

    For the rest, carry on, I like the way this cj is heading 9.gif

    esclade.01 - You mean...this one?!?

    Amerikaner - Thanks! Ask you ye shall recieve. And everything you see here is grown! Except for the civic buildings ofcourse. 3.gif

    GuerrilaWarfare - Thanks! 4.gif Your cousin lives in a nice neighborhood. 2.gif

    And thanks to Roger, Stone Creek has replaced the OWRs with some good ol' RHW!

    RoseCounty-Jul141021280877233.jpg

    And Northern Stone Creek is still under construction, but it is nearing completeion! And this is where Stone Creek's High Schools' football teams play their games, Taylor Memorial Field.

     

    RoseCounty-May131071280881379.jpg

    Just a few blocks south of Taylor Memorial Field, you will find the tallest residential building in all of Stone Creek. This is also Stone Creek's only residental "skyscraper"

     

    Now, for some good ol' suburb shots!

    RoseCounty-Mar171081280881995.jpg

    Small stream behind some houses.

     

    RoseCounty-Sep111061280880215.jpg

    And another.

     

    RoseCounty-Apr291071280881271.jpg

    Townhouses on a main road.

     

    RoseCounty-Feb211071280880708.jpg

    Same townhouses, at night.

     

    RoseCounty-Feb211071280880622.jpg

    Some houses with beautiful backyards.

     

    RoseCounty-Jan291081280881866.jpg

    Hey! we remember this scene! Main Street and the church. Small changes here. Can you spot them?

     

    RoseCounty-Jul81071280881503.jpg

    Overpriced houses.

     

    RoseCounty-Jul61071280881469.jpg

    Houses by the walls.

     

    And now, everyones favorite, a mosaic of the area!

    Ahh. Fall has come to Stone Creek. Children and teenagers head their way back to school and Fall sports such as football start back up.

    Another church, about five or six blocks from the other. 
     
    RoseCounty-Oct101341281069321.jpg
    The area of trees behind the hospital was bulldozed and made into townhouses and more, beautiful houses.
