Project: Nuked York

[jacqulina 162]

i for one love your cj i love the waterways you have done it is very pretty getting already

[kaboomcy 0]

good start

[MrVegetable 2]

I really am liking this! I like the ity layout and the canals and pretty much everything.

Just something that crossed my mind. If tis is after a nuclear war, wouldn't there be lots of radiation about? Are you going to simulate it? Or are you going to say that it has all been dealt with?

I think that this would be a great CJ on it's own if it weren't built on the ruins on New York City.  Just how long after the nuclear strike was it that people started to move back to this area?  The whole New York thing really doesn't bother me, and if it bothers anyone else, here is a note to them:

Floor 107 North Tower...so shutup.

[MrCinatit 30]

okay, guys, i went through here as well and deleted a few more posts - i also edited a couple to get rid of some referals to deleted posts - if you have a problem with this, please get ahold of me via PM. and please, stay on topic.

Thank you mrbisonm and MrCinatit, for helping us, lets hope that won't happen again!

Wow, I definitely like to live there, it looks very nice, (Well apart from the Radiation, if any left) !)

Your doing great!

Yay, I am now a Tourist!

[godwin1020 1]

i love your story, hope you won't stop at the middle of it

[newyorkrunaway1 110]

Very good start, cant wait for more!!! Thanks mrbisonm for getting rid of those posts and giving him the chance he deserved!!!

The development of the new highway seems to almost be finished in the Government sector of Capitol City.







Adams' attention was fully rested on the development of the new highway, that he completely forgot he had competition going on; Versailles. Trying to capture the hearts of many citizens, Versailles has been working on the all new...



...railroad system. Not much information on this new railroad has been released, but it is believed that...



...it will connect Melbourne County and Chandrapore County to Versailles County.

Both the highway and the new railroad system has brought...



new business to the area to help with the unemployment that was previously in place. It has also brought...


A lot of visitors to the area that seek to move away from their current locations.

The Versailles Scientist Society has been hard at work finding methods to clean the radiation in the area. One method that they are testing, and it seems to be working, is to use the current radiation to turn into energy. The results...



...a beautiful city.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thanks once again for the comments! I really do love em and they keep me going

mrbisonm: Thanks for the help in restoring order!

timberskido: Yes i've used my fair share of plugins

MrVegetable: This update I believe has answered your radiation question in one way or another. With the limitations of SimCity.. i cant really plop some radiation... hehe... but we are gonna have to use our imagination a little bit and compromise.

NintendoMaster128: As to an approximate number, I cant really pinpoint, but it was at least decades. I will do an update with more information on that.

MrCinatit: Thank you also for restoring order

[sloppet 3]

nice update!! looking good! nice wor so far!

[pekeboo01 3]

Nice CJ,

It definitely has promise. I really like the waterways and the stream in the little park is very nice.

[bobinator 0]

Nice job with the cannals! this city journal really shows some promise!

[gurrgkud 2]

While Versailles and Adams were fighting for the hearts of the citizens, the House Of The Founding Fathers has released a brief plan of Capitol City's future.

The Government Sector is almost complete. Surrounding it will be suburbs and forests. To the left is College Park, where the first University to educate a new generation will rise. It will also include more parks to provide students with a place to relax and study. To the left, past the tunnel, will be Downtown Capitol City, which will be cut in half by a new highway extension. The north of downtown is still undecided. It might include an upper class town. The rest of Capitol City will include nice neighborhoods and Suburbs, as well as replanting some new trees as soon as the V.S.S. finds new ways to diminish the radiation.

Once again, thanks for the comments everyone!

[rhino120 2]

Good job so far!  Keep it up!

[kingofsimcity 5,739]

Thought I'd pop in here...

Very creative idea and looks like South Manhattan got seperated from Midtown...The city looks amazing from what I have seen... Great Work...

[aldara6166 109]

This CJ is pretty cool.  I like the concept.  I especially like the canal system, kind of reminds me of pictures of Venice, Italy (have to rely on pictures, since I probably will never get there in my lifetime because RLS!!! )

Me, I'm a sucker for a good storyline in a CJ; guess that's why I write my CJ the way I do.  Keep up the good work and never get discouraged!! 

[gurrgkud 2]

The House Of The Founding Fathers has selected a new site for College Town, and Versailles University will soon be filled by a new enthusiastic generation. They were generous enough to show a quick preview of the project.

Surrounded by parks and an enchanting forest, College Town will be the perfect spot to expand the minds of those who seek knowledge.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I will be out today... spending some time with the significant other ... so im not sure if i'll get to update today... but a College Town is certainly on its way.. and pre-planning for the downtown area has begun.

Once again.. Thanks for all your comments! And keep em coming

[jacqulina 162]

very beautifull pics great work nice design

[Prpl26 0]

Interesting story - keep going! 

[aldara6166 109]

If you visit my CJ (the link from my signature) and look at the next to the last page, you'll see what you can do with the University pack of 11 buildings from STEX.  Maybe an idea for ya...    The preview pic, good enough to make us come back for more!! 

[samantha 138]

I think this is a great CJ, with a very unique and interesting story behind it.   Gurrgkud, keep up the great work & welcome to Simtropolis!      

 

I know that MrBisonM is going to be keeping a close watch on this journal, and so will I, its very creative and I think we have another great storyteller here in the CJs! 

 

[Cjah 15]

This is great looking capitol and if you put more effort in the story and really develop it....It may truly be trixie materail,but then again I hope to win one when and if I every get around to staring a C.J....damn RLS

 

but until then I will continue watching....Oh I put this C.J. in my sig,because this C.J. rules that much!

 

[crazyarchitect 7]

very interesting journal, I've never heard of a storyline like this on this site before, keep up the good work and can't wait to see more

Very nice use of the canals and great details with the mini-terraforming.

After announcing the new College Park in Capitol City, Cecil Adams signed himself for the task of designing it. Just left of the Government Sector...

...College Park has managed to integrate a College with a Park.

Although there are still some minor issues to fix to make sure College Park meets the Capitol City standards, most of the layout is complete and students can currently enroll for the upcoming 2098 Fall term.

The college includes the following ammenities:

Pathways that connect every single building through an enchanting forest, safely away from the streets.

A sports complex.

State of the Art buildings and classrooms.

State of the Art dorms, providing an atmosphere of excellence for every student.

Recreational activities such as tennis, baseball, basketball, etc...

And College Park's symbol of excellence, the Clock Tower.

No problem.  I too loved the set once I downloaded it and pit it to use.  I just preferred to use Jeronij's tarmac trails exclusively for my campus.  This is just a personal preferrence though.  But, you campus still looks great.  I thought there weren't a lot of trees yet due to the radiation?? 

 

All-in-all, good update and great CJ.  Can't wait for your comments on mine, since you like my campus layout so much.
