Superb downtown, Ioan! We can feel the ambiance from the LA in LA noire. Good job.

[simlink 1,098]

Great job -JD- ! It looks really great, I like how it is nestled along the water and by the highways.

Love it! It's definitely my kind of town.

@io_bg - the motion blurring effect on the cars is subtle, yet very effective. Great pics.

This is downtown San Jose from a Bay Area region map I found on the STEX. It's not how it looks in real life; it's just my own city I built and called it that based on the area the tile was in. Anyway, it's on a large tile and has a population of 79,200, with plenty of area still to develop, if I want.

Here it is:

Where did you get the tan building in the middle of this picture? D: it looks awesome

[io_bg 249]

Thank you all for the feedback

Wrightguy0, it's made by Simgoober and I probably got it from one of his building packs from the LEX, unfortunately I don't remember which one.

A slightly different CBD from my new City Journal, Zouérat Islamic Federation. This is the ancient medina in the centre of the city of Lagouira.

Is a description necessary? I don't think so.

Great! I also can smell the LA noir atmosphere! I love the troleys, and the old pavement of streets, I'd like those buildings for my downtown LA! LOL

Thanks for sharing!

amazing!

LA Noire inspired me to develop a mid-20th century city

Sorry, but I have to say it: since I'm building my own downtown LA (see my CJ) this square in the middle of the picture is perfect as Pershing Square during the 80's just before the last redevelopment of the the square. But not only that, there are many buildings I could use.

So, once again CONGRATULATIONS! You did a good and a very realistic job. Now, where can I get this square from?

[io_bg 249]

Thanks! I made the square using various lots - Paeng's trail parks and nbvc's plazas

lo_bg, I am obsessed with those shots. What a beautiful city. As a former LA resident, it really rings true. I want to ask you where you got just about every building, but for now I'll keep it to two:

1) The beautiful building directly across from the park with the ornamental arches and roof terrace.

2) The church in the same picture.

I am newer to the game, so I apologize if these are "duh" files that everybody knows where to find, or if they'll pop up magically in a later growth state.

[jwsteele 77]

Oh, and that parking garage, haha.

Here is the downtown of my largest city in my current region

Not a "functional" CBD as I just created this to play with, but this is a nice pic so I thought I'd share

[Jazzmaster 716]

I like it -JD-! Great mix of classical and contemporary architecture.
