The trees give a realistic effect and your suburbs look nice. I'm glad people realize grids don't always look ugly.

Awesome use of Maxis. It actually works with the city. It works . . . period! You must work hard to get something as stale and pasty as the Maxis houses to look, well, good! Keep it up! TopCliff

    Nice suburbs you've got there. Realistic how you have separated the motorway from the housing. Nice lighthouse too

    I am going to sneak into your house and copy your Regions folder, and then it shall be mine!

    At least, I would definately be... insipired... by your street layout (so real! I think it could be more griddy though, depending on the age of the developments). Also I love whatever tree mod you're using, and the church is very nice! If I sat all the way back in my chair I could mistake your city for a picture of a real one.

    sounds good for the economy, but not for the peace and serenity of Longmeadow.

    Well, maybe preserves for some animals. Some animals might be preserved instead... say in barbecue sauce??!! lol!

    Bring on the airport! The little bags of peanuts can help feed the poor homeless animals.

    Yeah, three cheers for planes and putting it on the habitat of the animals! As compensation, they can all fly to the Bahamas for a vacation if they want. 4.gif

    Nah, seriously, glad to see the wheels of progress turning. 3.gif

    I think American Eagle (American Airlines Regional) should start flights 3.gif or Kansan Airways (Regional Airline based out of Meadowlark Falls) might start flights to Ponderosa and your large international airport 3.gif

    Nice suburb surronding the university. I see its going to be a small airport though. Is the highway intersection going to become a clover leaf?
