Recreation: RUHRGEBIET by EJC

[Zwabberaar 18]

I love the Essen HBF, but I don't recognize the model. May I ask which model you have used for this great station?       Found the name in an earlier post: Tokyo Station

The update is the same quality as all your previous updates. I have also taken a look at your Paris jornal and I am amazed of its detailed reconstruction. I wish I could build half as realistic.

Good update, love your use of that station for Essen Hbf.

ESSEN ALTSTADT part 2

I know it has been a while, but after the summer-vacation I have a busy Real-Life schedule so updates won't be as frequent as you used to. But, on the other hand; the updates will show larger and more expanded as before so that's a benefit...

On the edge of "Vierhofer Platz" in "Essen-zentrum Nord"

"Friedrich Ebert-straBe" near the railyards on the north-side of the center..

Western parts of city-centre where "LinderburgstraBe" crosses through older parts of the city.

More to the center; "Kennedyplatz"

Other angle on the same view..

Hard to make the dining look nice on the square's middle piece

Only trees missing here; I'm just not that good with the Lot-Editor..

That was it for now; next update we'll take a look on the newer side of  "Essen-zentrum"; the CBD (Central Business District) because this city houses after  "Frankfurt am Main" the largest "skyscrapers" of Germany packed together.

So; Stay tuned as I rock you with the next update!!!!

wow this is so cool do you plan to build the Warner Brother movie park in Bottrop and other cities like Dortmund, Hagen , Hamm , Unna , and the well known city Castrop Rauxel *lol* i was in the RUHRPOTT last year and it looks like the real one

[petriknl 15]

Wow amazing I was in Essen yesterday and it is so realistic!

[JanYpe 17]

Nice update. Standing by to be rocked.

[KingTitan 6]

Marvelous...Great CJ...I can see why you won a Trixie last year.

Great stuff.

[penguin007 27]

[jacqulina 162]

[Benedict 3,119]

Definitely one of my current top 10

[CocaTertoka 7]

Wow. I cant believe I haven't seen this CJ before. Absolutly Amazing. And very realistic. Keep up the great work. please.

[Dsrwhat316 12]

hey, i think it was worth the wait. there's definitely a euro feel to this CJ, and it shows. rock on, man!

[suplado! 23]

cool update...this town really good...anyway -- maybe you can try to add some trees in the street....try some street addon...

[E.J.C 9]

@ LilFlipper: Yes, I'm planning (and building allready) on more outer stretches of the region. "Warner Bros" will NOT be build; this is not on my hand-terraformed region. And also "Hagen" isn't.. Dortmund, Unna, Castrop Rauxel, Gelsenkirchen, Oberhausen, Bottrop and Düsseldorf (maybe Köln) will be build; so stay tuned in the next months.....

@ petriknl: Always cool to hear "it's good" from people who are familiar with the region!! Thanx!

@ KingTitan: previous year I was surprised by getting a Trixie.. And, I think the competetion has grown over the past months for this years Trixie!! Only 1 thing is the difference between the builders here on ST -> They (almost all) don't finish any project. For all I know,  only mr. Beer and Astrianu have finished there real-liked-themed-cities. So, I think determination will be a high standard this years in the Trixie-elections

@ penguin00: It never has been gone.. only, it's not here as frequent; but I WILL CONTINUE!! HELL YEAH!!!!

@ jacqulina: Always nice to see you around. I was experimentating with those ped. streets, I think I'll use them more often from now on

@ Benedict; That's nice!! Because I know how many great CJ's there are nowadays

@ Dsrwhat316: We will rock on, all together now!!

@ suplado!: I've tried the plugin allready in my other region "Paris" but I wasn't satisfied by the result. I will go plop more trees in mayor mode from now on; promise!!

ESSEN CBD

Overview on the area, doesn't look German does it with all those highrises?? Well, it's really all there in reallife!!

Another total-shot, with in foreground the main-station that's between old & new city-center

A view on the southern suburbs of Essen

Close up-shot of the (round) RWE-turm and park in front of it.

A nice shot looking towards old town on a cold day in autumn....

Well... Got rocked?? Next update will contain the information on the city of Essen and some random-shots that I choose of the city. After that we'll be travelling eastwards where we encounter the next city to follow -> BOCHUM!!

[KingTitan 6]

Well, your CJ looks fun friend....I does seem there is a lot of gray and concrete 9If thats the look your going for) But I really Like it.

[penguin007 27]

Great update some tall buildings there cant wait for more

Will

[Schulmanator 5,812]

Very nice! I enjoy your attetion to detail.

[Mike the Mayor 51]

Wow - nice pics. I think the more grey look adds character to your city, many English cities are like that in a way.

Keep up the great work!

[ilikehotdogsalot 311]

i really enjoyed your entire update, my favorite picture was the one with the huge circular CBD tower and the hills filled with residentials, one of the best slope building i have seen, excellent work!

[petriknl 15]

Looking so German! The Essen CBD is cool... can you make a nightlight picture perhaps because in reallife I think the skylines rocks when you drive on the highway.. btw heavy traffic.... traffic generator or how many live there in your region?

[Cleaner475 150]

nice towers - I like the pics and the nice crammed city feel

keep it up, its looking great,

Richard

[Benedict 3,119]

I love how the river, the network, and the city seem to flow together.

Looks amazing

[penguin007 27]

Wow those evening and night shots look awesome

Will

[petriknl 15]

Thanks! Love them! The contrast between the virbant city life and the winding river is so good!

[jacqulina 162]
