URBAN BEAUTIFICATION PACK VOLUME 1:
Boulevard Plaza Gardens
This is Version 2 of this volume. This version changes the wealth level of the lots to medium instead of high which should help to make the base texture more like the maxis sidewalk texture. you will need to demolish all lots used from the previous version for this change to take effect. sorry for any inconvienience 
This pack of 20 separate lots was originally intended to be used for my City Journal as boulevard filler, to help decorate that 1x1 space in between two one-way roads.It eventually expanded itself into a pack of lots which can be used almost anywhere in a downtown urban or suburban setting to help fill in those pesky 1x1 areas with beautiful parks and recreation lots.
Thanks goes out to Simgoober and Pegasus for their absolutely brilliant seasonal props which made these lots the eye candy that they are.
The UBP: Vol. 1 actually contains three different sets of lots:Continuous, Fancy, and Simple.All lots are 1x1, have a basic Maxis texture designed to blend in (nearly seamlessly) with the default maxis sidewalk texture, and give minor park and landmark effects.Also, nearly every lot has some kind of seasonal quality to it, the trees, the bushes, and the flowers.Keep an eye pealed as the time goes by and witness the gardens bloom.
The Continuous Set:This is a set of flowers, trees, bushes and shrubs which is designed specifically to create a continuous botanical barrier for use in between or on the sides of road ways.
The Fancy Set:This is a set of flowers and other urban gardens which can be placed anywhere, in any orientation to give those small empty spots a splash of color.
The Simple Set:This set is a very simple and Spartan set of lots which has very few props designed to help beautify and area yet at the same time not detract from anything else around it.This set also includes a 1x1 lot with texture only, no props.It may seem simplistic at first, but the clever mayor will see its potential.
INSTALLATION
Very simply unzip the downloaded file and extract the UBP: Vol. 1.The sets are contained in their own sub folders which make it easy for you to pick and choose which lots to install.Just choose your favorite lots and move them to an organized section of your MyDocuments/SimCity4/Plugins folder.Enjoy!
DEPENDENCIES
I tried very hard to keep this list short and I believe I was successful:
The flowers and most of the gardens in general use Simgoober's Flora Packs located in a Mega pack here: https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/15287-bsc-mega-props-sg-vol-01/
The trees and buildings themselves are from Pegasus' seasonal tree lots here:
https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/4515-peg-seasonal-woods-v206b/
(NOTE:if you use SC4Tool to detect dependencies you may see that some of the lots have extra dependencies like BLS prop pack and Pegasus CSK2 fountain pack.I don’t know why it says those are needed because I took those files out of my plugins folder and my lots work just fine.You can get those things if you like but they really are not needed.)
STATS
Every lot in this pack shares the same following stats, which is an average of the maxis small flower garden and small plaza.
PLOP COST: 60
BULLDOZE: 10
MAINTENANCE: 5
LANDMARK EFFECT: 40/20
PARK EFFECT: 40/20
DEMAND CAP RELIEF: 250/250/250
Mod Edit: Fixed broken formatting and updated dependency links.
