Love that zoo. The Jr. Schulmanator wants to know how many monkeys they have!

The zoo's good, but it's too square and boring... try adding some colourful trees and parks to give it some extra spice...

Clever use of the sunken rail transition aswell... it just keeps going down...!

Hi CC,

HUGE Zoo you've created here my friend!

lot's of detail, very clean looking lot's of parking space, (I always like it when there's a lot of parking space).

Not only do I like the zoo in itself, but I like WHERE it's located, looks like it really belongs there, and for a zoo it's not always easy to achieve, very often in cities it looks like something that we MUST have but that we put somewhere without any real thoughts about integrating it WITH the city.

Not the case here, the way you've placed it it becomes the focal point in that area!

Great work!

Only gripes would be that I don't see any medium or small parks on the lawns so people could stop, relax and enjoy a family picnic. Just a tought

Take care

    Well...After multiple test runs, and many layouts...I thought it was time to step back into the drawing room and redo Annapolis again...It is a Large tile so I have tons of space to work with and realistically most of it will be sprawling suburbs..I have come up with a drawing of the new layout that I WILL make work...lol Here is a cheesy pic that I made in paint 3.gif

    Please Note that It will not go from skyscrapers to houses, it appears that way in the picture but I will make it blend...Thank you and leave some comments of your opinions 4.gif

    Oops forgot to tell yah, Palm County is located on the tile to the Left 4.gif

    Nice Layout

    OOHH neat, Flip Horizontal and you would have a map of Tokyo. Rotate 180 and you would have Chicago....Just thought that was interesting...
