Show us your Downtown!

This is Betone Ruge. Just a classic city. No ploppables, mainly used Chicago 1890. 

A question; How to achieve 2:1 sims to job ratio? I am almost always closer to 1:1 and it kinda kills some realism for me. Even if i abuse parks and plazas.

Great city design.

It's supposed to be a sort of late 40s/early 50s sort of downtown. I feel like it's missing something though, doesn't quite have the pizzazz that time period seemed to have.

 

Oh well. 

[SAVAGExPHOENIX 955]

Well, traffic might help a little It does look pretty interesting though

Day and night in Barrio Bellavista, Ciudad del Lago. What is curious about this CBD is that doesn't correspond to the original city centre, but is a road intersection between a train station and a ferry dock. Originally, just spontaneous office projects thrived in the place, but the Municipality then took iniciative and embraced a joint public-private development plan: huge skyscrapers and a conventions center, aside a complete revamp of the public transportation system.

I think it looks great!  I love buildings from the early 20th century, and seeing skylines from that time period, I think this looks awesome! would love to see some more pics if u have

Downtown Carré. Urban metro population soon reaching 400.000. (only counting directly connected inner suburbs in the surrounding tiles) 

 

The highway created massive commercial demand. No ploppaples or demand mods used

I agree. The pictures are very heavily photoshopped, though. I'd love to see some unaltered shots.

hah, don't worry, ur girl still look hella fine without make up! I love that convention center with huge antenna coming off it at the edge of the river.  so perfectly placed.  Along with numerous other things

 

Your LA bank of america building came out real nice, for some reason when I plop mine just sit there floating.  I gotta plop trees around it just to hide the floating base.  Any tips on how to get it to come out like that?

[SylvioJ 388]

OK! this is my girl without makeup...

 

WOW! I think this is the best downtown I've ever seen in Simtropolis! It's so complete, beautiful, planned and really jaw dropping wow just wow.

[T Wrecks 10,209]

Thanks for fulfilling my wish! Turns out what I suspected: your "girl" doesn't even need make-up! That's an absolutely amazing downtown there, lots of details I love.

[tonyr 926]

That's gorgeous work, Gigius!     A star is born!
