EDIT: Welcome to page... eight!
I'm loving the newer updates, they're great!
Especially the Real Estate ones, but I hate that damn fine-print 18.gif
I'll make sure to read the whole thing next time...

Just love the your approach to city-building and presentation, and the originality of it all! Specifically, the custom BATs are great... I wonder if you have any plans on releasing a certain few... *hint*hint*

Hmm... maybe some more rural updates can be in store, just to give the CJ some variety: A rural update or two, then urban; just so that we won't get tired of one or the other 3.gif

I always enjoy property listings; makes me want to really visit these places 9.gif

Also, I liked the tour of the river, as we got to see the changing ambience of its surroundings from source to mouth. A unique variance on tours that is not usually seen!

Harbour Tower has been released - in disguise. Harbour Tower = real-world (London) office block 98 Bishopsgate, which is currently the star performer on the STEX and on the home page.

Very nice as always. The river was very pretty, particularly where you used the Peg streams in the second shot.

    Great railway update. The Easting redevelopment looks good too - all told this is a CJ to envy.

    It's a new station that Froggie is working on at the moment, it's based on Bristol Temple Meads station, incidentally in Bristol, UK. Although Temple Meads is influenced be the castle look it is as strong as what Frogface as done so far.

    Hadn't realised that was Bristol Temple Meads station. Didn't realise they'd done *that* for a station, thought it was a generic modern one! (I've never been there, only ever been to Bristol in a minibus and we didn't see the station on our way through the city centre to our final destination UWE!)
     
    Great updates as always. Can't wait to see Bristol Temple Meads on the STEX. This CJ is rapidly becoming one of the classics.

    First the river tour and now a rail tour! And silly me, I thought only highway tours were interesting! You're really putting a unique spin on things with this CJ, Froggie! But what else ought we to expect from you....

    The graffiti and litter alongside the railway are so real, aren't they? 46.gif <--Thought I'd try a weird smiley...

    Great stuff - wonderful to see it's not just utopian, for Britain is far from that!
     
    Are the crime figures in SC4 for that area really high?
