Chula Vista Metro Area

[GreekMan 246]

Hello and welcome to my first CJ Chula Vista. This is going to be a city planning CJ, It will start when I find out how to add lines and graphics. I have cheated with NAM and some BATs.

Note: This city is only one large tile. Not that I have any problems with the region. This CJ is for fun right now.I have began building outside the city. I may have another and better city panning CJ in the summer.

Here are some facts:

-Population: 41,293

-Mayor: Mayor Murphy

-Mass Transit

   VMTS or Vista Metropolitan Transit System ridership: 10,000 

      5 lines Blue, Green, Orange, Black, and Red

 -The City has some undeveloped spots so that's the planning part of it.

This is downtown Chula Vista. Mayor Murphy needs to redevelop this area.

I will post more pics later if I can.

Half of the city is populated the other half is not. I will have to do that.

But school starts again so I don know about posting and stuff.

Update

This is the west side of the city.

Mayor Murphy needs to develop this area. A light rail is planned to go through here.

VMTS gets busy during morning rush hour in the downtown area.

Mayor Murphy's term of office start's now. Six year he will be at city hall. 

Mayor Murphy released a statement at city hall. He outlines his plans to expand the city and to do other projects. These are his plans:

-expand the city outward then upward.

-build and expand current police and fire stations.

-build an airport.

-expand the transit system.

-get a baseball team to the city.

-redevelop the downtown area.

Those were his plans for the City of Chula Vista.

Well I hope you liked it.

very nice start. Your use of the el rail is great. cant wait to see how this develops.

[Narya 14]

Nice start. But I would advice you to try to avoid griding to much. Just my 2 cents. But this cj has a potential to become lovely.

jacqulina- Thanks

Hawkeye9- thanks for the words

Narya- thanks. I try not to grid but it easier and faster.

Firstly the east side of the city is complete.

Secondly, there will be newspaper posts too.

Issue 1

The Chula Vista

Herald

Downtown- Constuction on the Herald building is complete. It took about a year to complete the building. The cost was

about 245 million dollars. the head of the newspaper (Herald) said, "This is a big step for us. We moved from the suburb

of Riverside to downtown Chula Vista." The old building was too small for them and they had to move. "It's really a beutiful

building in and out side." said an editor. The building is located on Broadway.

City- Mayor Sanders finishes the

eastside of the city... A1,city edition, 

to find out more about it.

The Chargers are in the playoffs! Sports B6 for more info

St Louis Dude- Thank you

ok I apologize for no updates but first this is my test CJ. My summer one will be better.I know is a bad and sad Cj.

[Hawkeye9 0]

 This is not a bad, and sad cj, It is very good. Cant wait for next update, and Keep up the good work.

[Giligone 10]

Hey, nice start. You've got some good ideas there for planning of your city. A couple recommendations for your CJ would be to use jpg pictures instead of png as they load much faster. Also, try to use the full 800x600 picture size alotment. Your city looks good and we all want to see as much of it as we can! Keep up the good work.

[GreekMan 246]

Replies

Hawkeye9- thank you. I agree.

Giligone-Thanks. I will try to figure out how to put in jpg and png. I do put 800x600 but it dosen't show.

An update is coming up.

[jacqulina 162]

very nice you are doing well i am looking out for more

[GreekMan 246]

Update time

The Chula Vista Herald

Downtown- Downtown has seen a population boom. Commercial and residentcial is on the rise. Mayor Murphy stated that downtown will grow more. "I have been exepting about 10 new buildings every two weeks," said the mayor. Locals around Chula Vista demand an airport. Mayor Murphy said that he will build one in the city limits to accomodate the population.More about downtown's boom turn to A4.


                         Downtown 5 years ago



                                        Downtown now


                                  Downtown at night

Here is the commercial boom in downtown


I will post more pics later.sorry about this.

comments are appreciated

[Hawkeye9 0]

You have a good sized downtown now. I like how you did the before and after pics, you get a good feel for the amount of growth in that area. You also have a really good road system, with the one way roads and avenues. looking forward to future updates.

[Giligone 10]

That certainly is a population boom! Nice work on the downtown. Its really coming along. Looking forward to when you figure out why your pics arent bigger as I'd love to see more detail! Keep it up :-D

Hawkeye9- Thanks

Giligone-800x600 pics are coming up.

[GreekMan 246]

as promised here's the second part.

Because of the huge population boom, Mayor Murphy proposed building a bigger 

fire station in downtown. One truck can't handle all the people in the area.

Here is the new fire station. Now three trucks can handle the population.

As Chula Vista grows, the crime does to. Mayor Murphy proposed building a bigger police station in the area.

The old police station with 4 cars serving downtown.

New one with 6 cars.

With the boom, VMTS has a weekly average ridership of 15,000.

well I hope you are happy with this. Comments either positive or 

negative are very appreciated. Thank you

[Giligone 10]

Another good update. I like how you've mixed transportation systems. Good not just to rely on roads.

[Hawkeye9 0]

nice update looks good, this cj is definatly going to become one of my favs. keep up the great work and I'll be here next update.

[MayorTim 16]

Pretty cool! Only thing I would say is it is definitely lacking custom content. You have the city planning and developing down, now you just need to bring in some BATs to really make it realistic, and personal.

Still, very nice start!

[GreekMan 246]

Giligone- roads would get congested without any Els

Hawkeye9- Your CJ will be my fav.

MayorTim- Thanks. BATs will come up when downtown grows. Chula Vista is too small for tall buildings.

on a side note. The city planning has began. I now found out how to insert colors and stuff.

Please comment. I would like some feedback.
