[penguin007 27]

Great update as always there mikeaut but the airport with 3 parerel runways might be a bit unrealistic. Prove me wrong please I dont want to say your cj is wrong!!

Well Heck....I don't even know what to comment about......everything in your city journal looks fantastic..... LOL You details to your lake fronts. river fronrts, ocean fronts or whatever are simply attractive...the rreal-estate must be high. Great use of diagonal pieces defifitely make a smoother transition between adodes. And your airport is simply outstanding. And that sure does look like a zombie in the cemetary. LOL "Their coming to get ya Barbera" LOL Just an ode to night of the living dead. Great and wonderful stuff in here.

[Godzillaman 21]

Big update! Very nice suburbs! The airport looks big!

[Chris M 406]

Awesome update!!  I really like the subtle look of the boat floating among the relaxing ocean.  It looks like a great place to spend an afternoon.

Welcome to Page 30 of Mike's Showcase!

Thank you to everyone who brought this city journal up to 30 pages. Enjoy!

Sabin, Woodhale

Welcome back to Woodhale!

Since I've showcased Everett, it is time to discover what else lies north of the capital. Basically past Manniondale and the Everett Int'l Airport, it gets very sparse in development, with lots and lots of forest-cover. Around 35 minutes north of Everett lies Sabin.

Here is an updated region shot and one of them is labelled with some towns.

History of Sabin

Sabin is located upon the pristine banks of the Fairfax River in northern Woodhale. Up where Sabin is located, it is very mountainous. The Fairfax River meanders through a little protrusion, where Sabin is located. In the 1700's, Sabin was a little post as traders canoed down the Fairfax River. Soon the little tradepost grew as more and more traders utilized the river to pass through Woodhale. Today, Sabin has become a larger city, with a population around 50,000.

Good looking place to live, it looks like. Nice shots, great CJ!

great update mikey! i like the suburbs alot! i want to live there!

[ilikehotdogsalot 308]

excellent job mikey, awesome suburb, looks very pacific - northwest

[Godzillaman 21]

The region view is impressive. You are extremely talented at suburbs.

[Chris M 406]

Awesome work, Mike! Your region is expanding in a beautiful way. The trees look great with the particular blend you've applied and the houses look like a great place to live!

[Psycho_Teddy 25]

Fantastic update Mike!  I, like the rest, love the tree blending technique that you use!  Looks very realistic!  I'll have to try that in my cj, sometime!  

[Teeparex 6]

I have to say, the region view looks fantastic! That first mosaic was also very good, I thought.

[Craig-Abcvs 1,595]

I really like the way your region transitions from flat plains to rolling hills. Your environmental lady must be happy with all those trees - but then do we really care what the whiny advisors want...?

[Mikeaut1 261]

This update is dedicated fully to Woodhale National Mall, constructed in Bellhaven. Bellhaven is located to the east of Everett. The mall will certainly be a big success, and you'll see that in future updates.

I want to thank Heblem and the rest of the crew who worked on the mall, it certainly is great!

Here is the Mall Showcase update!

Caramel Frappucino, anyone?

I'm hoping that shrimp special is still at Red Lobster.

I just ate at Chili's too, I like their chicken!

abcvs - Thanks I bet she is happy, but I could care less. HAHA! I never listen to them. Thanks, and congratulations on your MOTM award too, very deserved!

To ALL: Thanks for keeping this CJ alive!

[Chris M 406]

Red Lobster owns! It's my favourite place to eat. Nice mall, btw, good to see someone put good use into it. You should try plopping some Euro Traffic Generator lots to make the mall look more busy because right now it looks a little vacant.

[sEAhAwk fAn121 0]

Nice mall Mikey! i like it alot! i like Chili's too! hahaha!

[suplado! 23]

wow, very cool...like to stop by and shop for a while...hehe
