    Thanks again for the replies, everyone!! 9.gif

    I'm teasing you again actually, (haha I'm mean... 11.gif) with some stats on the subway.

    For those that are interested in subway transit, I bet you'd like this...

    This is another animation, showing the use of the subway system into downtown during the morning commute.

    subwaytraff.gif

    As you can see, those middle class Sims from southern Everett are really using the subway nicely... all that traffic on the subway is headed towards Heritage Square in downtown, where basically everything meets; rail and road. Over 4,000 are using Heritage Square now, each commute time.

    Stay tuned, I promise no more teasers... full updates coming soon! 4.gif

    Loving the maps, Mike. Teasers are good if not applied too often. Which is the case here. 3.gif

    Capitol Park & Astoria

    sdf.jpg

    Welcome back to Everett!!!

    This is a full update, wohoooo! 9.gif

    Anyway, today's update will focus on the very important area just south of downtown, and that is Capitol Park.

    Subway Map & Ground Light Rail Map

    These next few updates will feature places around downtown. To get a feel for where everything is, check out the Ground Light Rail Map and the Subway Map for Everett. Click Subway Map for full size!!

    Capitol Park in Astoria, Everett

    Since Everett is the capital of Woodhale, Everett is home to the Capitol Building and national buildings. All of these buildings are located in Capitol Park which is just south of Heritage Square.

    Everett-Mar20511191777673.jpg

    That is the Capitol Building. It sits right at the Allview Station on the Ground Light Rail. The Capitol has a golden topped dome with elaborate architecture both externally and internally. The grounds are also very pleasing, with a pond and some parkspace.

    Everett-Mar23511191777706.jpg

    Everett-Mar26511191777731.jpg

    These buildings are in the lower complex of Capitol Park. The taller one to the left is The Woodhale Tower, and was Everett's first building. It houses the important offices of the Woodhallen government. The square building to the right is Everett City Hall.

    Everett-Mar28511191777751.jpg

    The building above, 2 Woodhale Plaza, is another important congressional building in the park, where offices are located for both the Woodhale House of Representatives and Woodhale Senate. Across the street is a statue of Woodhale's founder, Clint Suga.

    That's all for now, another update coming really soon! 9.gif

    wow! that looks great! I think the government plaza looks great! I really like those trees you place along side the roads. Great work on your transport maps, looks like your residents have many choices to get around!

    Thats really great! The subway map is nice, I never know how to make organized subway lines, lol. What do you use for the green space between the buildings? I need some lots like those , but pretty much too lazy to make em myself lol.

    The Robert A. Haskell Memorial Arena

    The Robert A. Haskell Memorial Arena is a large arena holding 85,000 people in Southern Everett, off the Fuscia Line in Orrington. Often there are concerts in the arena or in the parking lot for the bigger shows like Vans Warped Tour and Ozzfest.
