Very nice and open aired, The modern downtown is nicer than ones that are cramped. Leaves some room for further development also.

    Wow! This is my first time here, and this is very impressive! This update was excellent, penguin! I really liked all the diagonals and mixture of European styles. The parks and the Eye look really great together, and remind me a bit of London. Very nice job 4.gif

    Thank you very much for the comments Anarchy and fresh prince of wmbg. Todays update is the old town of Cologne full of W2W buildings and no hi rises at all. There is some shopping but mostly there are apartment buildings and small fashionable cafes.

    Wow, love it. I did my first city journal (Cambellsport) on this region so it brings back fond memories, but didn't look anything like yours!!! It looks like you changed some of the terrain off of the river, cool...

    This is great, been a while since I've checked this out. I really like the custom content you've used. The night picture with library is spectacular.

    dfnva: thanks gd to see you here. You know what I dont like that pic as much as others but everyone else seems to like it wierd!!

    Za: Good to see you again my friend. thanks the  old town was probably the most time consuming part of the city having to knock down buildings again and again

    Shingure: thanks^^^

    packersfan: Thanks for the compliment. I have made some changes adding a river and a mountianous area. Had a look at your old cj pretty good I liked it.

    Fresh prince of wmbg: thanks

    feliwi: thanks

    Benedict: thanks I would pick somewhere more like Berlin to be honest because of the buildings although it could be an inland Amsterdam although Im not sure about copenhagen never seen the building style there.

    Schulmanator: thanks good to see you are enjoying the updates. Well I need to show you the airport then dont I

    Overall, I like the city zoo by the pond. The way you set it up was very appealing. Plus the houses around the area are very colorful. I look forward for more of the work.
