This is going to be my first post on this Journal, let alone these forums. I want to say what most others here are saying. This is amazing. I can see where the building is where I work, thanks to the landmarks you've placed.

Wow...you need to update! I've just scanned all this journal over the past week! And man, I'm exhausted. 3 years of devotion and hard work and accuracy! A true classic. I can't imagine seeing this journal end...

Impressive, to say the least. I ahve been following this one since I joined, just haven't posted although it more than deserves it (my apologies). The road layout is stunning, its so accurate and proffesional looking. Wow, 3 years! Good luck! I'll continue to follow this one.

I just cant get over how great your regional map looks. You've done wonders to work around the curved road limitations of the game using your mathematical skill.

On a side note, I live 5 minutes away from the RBC Center, and met lots of great people from Edmonton during the cup finals. Great city, great people, great country

City of Edmonton - August 22, 2006...

   Sorry that I haven't updated in a while. Anyone who truely knows this City Journal knows it often takes breaks and then pops back up at a busy pace and so on. Over the summer I have been really busy enjoying Edmonton's summer. I've taken a few different trips around western Canada and have been keeping busy doing a few other things. 

   As always the CJ will continue soon enough with many updates. Also I would like to say I've been accepted as one of Emporis.com's photographers. I've just got a new camera, so any pictures I have taken will be approved upon in time. Any pictures of Edmonton that I take and are placed on Emporis will probably be on the CJ aswell to continue to give everyone the true feeling of my home city.

Take your time with your updates. Remember rushing creates chaos...or something like that. I'm waiting patently.

Great work.  I haven't been here in a few months.  But your quality has only gotten better.  I just wish there was more in game pics.  Have a great summer and I'll be back.

Edmonton, August 27th 2006....

First off, don't worry this is the last of the bad Photoshop graphics.... I was playing around a little bored and figured I would throw this on the Cj anyways...

This is the Northmount / Glengary area in NE area just west of where I grew up. I touched up a few buildings, parks, and bus stops in this area and figured I would show the work in progress. I haven't worked on the city for atleast a month or two so Its time for even a small update...

Ive pretty much been a lurker here and decided to drop a comment, Your CJ is incredible and I love the accuracy and congrats on a very successful CJ, Keep up the AMAZING work!!!

Congradulations mate on such a successful cj buddy.. I hear Edmonton is a beautiful place. A good friend of mine lives in Calgary and visits Edmonton regularly. Your journal is a very accurate representation of Edmonton at least according to the maps I have seen of it. Well done mate and all the best on another 63 pages

Awesome! Glad to hear you'll be updating this soon, TJD! You're CJ has been an inspiration for me to start my own recreation. I've lurked on your CJ for far too long so thought I better comment. I now realize how much work this must've been and I'm glad you are sharing it all with us!

Cya around!

[MiniMark 7]

Every time I look, I drool. And I realize how much work was spent in this beautiful one of a kind CJ. Great Job.

this truly is a work of art!

I have a question mister tnjd73. Im recreating a city.And i have a small question.Were do you start.And how do you ount how long each block is. It seems to be a trouble with me at the moment..

[TheJerseyDevil73 13]

Capitol1 : The first steps of making a recreation are the hardest ones. Once you make these choices you are stuck with them, and some can come back to haunt you. I made my river valley to deep, and I can't change it for the entire city. 

Choosing the right scale is very important. It something you should try a few test runs at, recreating areas you know well, and then seeing how it fits in SC.

If you need to know how to do these and other first steps check out page 48 and page 11 of the CJ. I have a few tutorials there. Any other questions just ask.

[jacqulina 162]

wonderfull work yes you take your time we will be here waiting till you are ready

[capitol1 1]

Well you see i didnt terraforn my region but i might have to due to the fact that the map ive downloaded is alittle overscale. I looked at the tutorials and i think they will help alot thanks njd...

     What buildings will you be using for Canada Place and City Hall.  They're quite unique...  is there something on the STEX that's similar?
