Harchester- A UK CJ by Storms991

[storms991 0]

This is my first attempt at a CJ, so be nice.

This is Harchester, a city in the South of England, near the coast.

Teaser Pic of Wandsworth's mini CBD.

A random pic of the library and the newest building in South Wandsworth

A pic of the newely build Charring Cross Station, deep in the densely populated area of  South Brixton

A small part of the area around Highbury Stadium, even though I am a Man Utd Supporter, its still there. BTW. Arsenal i think was in a tie 2day with Everton.. or tottenham.. im not completely sure.

Now what city is complete without a truly grand station, St. Pancras was built here, in replacement of a much older, more primitive station. It has served as a hub for South Brixton for years, and therefore had the CBD develop around it.

[Gecko_2006 1]

It certainly has potential. Towers by houses looks a bit odd, but it's still aesthetically pleasing. More pics!

I'll be nice too!  Interesting looking C§§ amidst an older well established looking residential area.

This is a nice concept- I am looking forward to its development.

[Gecko_2006 1]

I see you edited your first post- The neighborhoods of rowhomes are fantastic.

As for your second update, even better! Perhaps St. Pauls can have some parks surrounding it rather than rowhomes? Just a suggestion. As for the rest, very detailed and well laid out.

[Fischbob 9]

Very British! Lots of roundabouts, as well as Gascooker and Ill Tonkso stuff.

It ain't too shabby!

[KingTitan 6]

GREAT CJ...clean crisp, clear.....Love the layout.....Very Good.!!!!!

[storms991 0]

hehe i was just thinking randomly...look at sum of the houses on the diagonal roads... the person can look directly into the other guyz garden lol... ok i am very... very... tired... more to come... once i get the time lol

TY,TY for comments, i appreciate them a lot

yea there are no cars.. cus i kept it on pause.. dont worry... my pc has 2gb of ram.. every option is on lol

[Goin2Chicago 4]

awesome looking cj. i really like all those homes and then the office towers around them give it a good feel. the only flaw i would say is that there's no cars on the roads. turn on the cars option and it'll be perfect. can't wait for more!

Nice to a UK inspired CJ.

Nice use of the uk style houses, and good choice of stations. I know the highbury stadium looks good, but surely a man u fan wouldn't want that in his city.

I haven't tried it myself but there is a beta for old trafford

Look forward to seeing more.

[jj88 24]

A great cj so far storms991! Its very British. I will definitely be watching this closely.

Good work!

[Mike the Mayor 51]

NIce start to your city. It's nice to see a city from my own country style on the forum.

[spa 970]

Great work. You've made great use of what British content there is on the stex.

[storms991 0]

thanks... yea i tried the old trafford stadium.. the installer doesnt seem to work.. i believe that there is a glitch in it sumwhere.... a man utd fan wud have to have no other options left to have to use highbury... any1 know if sum1 is gonna BAT the emirates??? no use puttin it in the BAT request thread cus no1 looks there anyway....

..

[ccecill 52]

Great job. Nice use of roundabouts in your cj

[purpledaddy 6]

Gecko_2006: yea... ill add sum parks once i master it.. rite now im working on density, in rea life, St. Pauls densely packed into Central London.. so its not 2 different lol quote>

Hmmmm. Game play mechanics.  Balancing out density has always been a challenge for me in early stage game development.  Right now who needs parks when you have trees.  All of this makes look like an older residential district which it probably will be, if that's your intent.

haha democrats!!...

purpledaddy..:: go to google earth... and type in hounslow. Those are the type of parks I want.. just widopen area behind terraces .. maybe I will build something like Regents or Hyde.. ... just mebe if i get the time
