I remember these, too - glad they haven't gone "the way of the dodo," and are back on your plate.

Always great to have more quality nofunk stuff to download...!

Also, I placed your new Cadillac tower in game along with 333 E Chicago and Finch & Co. and they all look lovely in their spots downtown. I especially love where Cadillac Tower sits near Merchandise Mart, with the billboard facing the tracks and main street so it's read clearly as you drive under the tracks. I imagine it as a great monument to behold as Sims cut by downtown on the Interstate as well.

If it's not too much trouble, I'd certainly love to see a screenshot of this arrangement. :ohyes:

I was treated to seeing a billboard other than the NFL add on the side of Cadillac...you snuck a random prop family in there, didn't you? ;)

Yes, he did. I also noticed that when I plopped the building and the ad didn't show Barry Sanders, but the trophy instead. All the better!

As for those rowhouses, I must admit that I had lost these from my radar (unlike badonk-, err, Carew Tower), but they will make a great addition!

It's no trouble at all, my friend. Here you are:

Finch & Co. and 333 E Chicago should be easy to spot in the first shot. :)

Nice shot, Vlasky! I really like the combination of buildings in the block that includes Cadillac Tower.

Please excuse the gaps, I like to plop a lot of buildings and don't want the same building more than once..my City basically starts very American and fades into the Glassy Towers of Simfox, PVM and Cockatoo on the other side of the Canal..anyway, just a few shots of your wonderful new creations

Holy cow, Jason, Todd, and Nolan - look what you did! Almost those entire cities are composed of your stuff! :drool:

Vladimir, that city looks stunning! It's simple and without any bling, but that's exactly what most cities consist of to a large degree. I like this look much more than those pictures that are 90% beautification and symmetry. It looks alive, slightly chaotic and only partially beatiful - just like most real cities.

GC, I love the square around Jason's library somehow. :)

Yesterday the Cadillac tower made an appearence in a test city i played with :).

Now, let's go to the more serious things - your work in progress - i'm really drooling for those rowhouses!

I believe it would be a really nice idea to provide some "corner" types of the same design...so that someone can fill a block with them, without having to use anything else to fill the corners .. maybe you might consider doing this at a later time, maybe as an "expansion pack" to this first pack...

    Wow! Thanks, Yoshiisland, Vlasky, Gutterclub, and TowerDude, for posting pictures of the Cadillac Tower in your city! They all look really great!

    Gutterclub, your city looks like a BSP tribute! Of course I approve of this! :P

    Also, I'm glad everyone likes the row houses! Regarding a corner lot -- it is definitely something I plan to provide, because I could use some corner lots in my cities as well -- but I will have to offer them in a future release. The row houses themselves don't function as model files, but are rather merged into a randomized prop (like the billboard on Cadillac Tower), so the five designs will grow at random. I figure it would be too complicated to offer them AND corner lots in the same set.

    Rest assured I will be making some corner rows, though!

    I'm still testing them in the game, and still need to put the Maxis Nite version together, but these will be on the STEX very soon!

    Seeing as people have been paying tribute, here's a closeup all how amazingly well your rowhouses blend in with other North American/New York style rowhouses on the stex

    I don't think many of the Google Image searches I performed on this building's name returned nearly as flattering a picture of this building. I don't know how you do it, Nolan. You just do. You really rock, man!
