    The Rebuilding of a City

    Lexicon was not doing well in my region… Many people did not have jobs and the city layout was confusing…well, all my city layouts are confusing, but this city was more confusing than normal lol. So I destroyed everything and started over. The first thing I did after everything was gone was to widen Snake River and lay out some new avenues and roads….as seen here

    Lexicon-Jul-1.jpg

    Then I set up the power source…In this pic you can see the slums or sth lol with the ugly run down buildings. The windmill farm is atop a hill overlooking the river…

    Lexicon-May.jpg

    So I tried to make my windmills more realistic this time, putting them outside the city instead of in the middle of it lol.

    Then I began a little downtown area…. Here it is, pretty much completed

    Lexicon-Feb.jpg

    You can also see the little park. I think parks look nice in downtown areas…Here is an aerial view

    Lexicon-Jul.jpg

    and another pic of it

    Lexicon-Jun.jpg

    I think this church is very beautiful and you can see some Sims coming out of it

    Lexicon-Apr-1.jpg

     I rather like how this downtown turned out, I hope you enjoyed it as well.

    Now I’m working on the suburbs. I love zoning like this lol, with 1x1 low dens residential along a road that spirals inward (I hope that makes sense) and it makes that cool looking neighborhood. Ok, in my opinion it’s cool looking 3.gif Here you can see it next to the park

    Lexicon-Jan31.jpg And a better-looking close up

    Lexicon-Jun-1.jpg

    Next I will work on the suburbs surrounding the river and the downtown area.

    Well done, Twiggy! I see the redevelopment was a great success! The downtown looks excellent, and the park looks very cool with the lake. I also like the coastlines of Snake River; as they are very realistic and the hill with the windmills is a nice touch. Keep up this great work!

    TierraBanner-PumpDemiBold.jpg

    Hi guys!  Sorry it took so long to reply to comments... Ive been a bit busy this past week.  but i did a bit of photoshopping for tierra.... Yes, a scary thought...  I redid the banner, like the one above this text^^ (though I'm not entirely pleased with it lol) yes its pink... that is my favorite color lol. 

    and I added a Table of Contents, as well as the residents of Tierra de la Oscuridad.  If I spelled a screenname wrong or forgot someone, please let me know!! lol.  Here they are (so you dont have to load the first page lol, half the pics are missing ... lol i might try to fix it... within the next decade or so) These were the people who bought houses in Tierra a while back.  Enjoy!
