 A tiny downtown:

 Andrejevsk, a small mediaeval town on the Andrejev island, south-western Rodina.
 The large structure is the Zul'm citadel, built during the Ottoman reign (early 17th century).

it still looks good, but try only letting the skyscrapers grow around other skyscrapers, to make it look like its more dense.

My latest development, The Oriental district in my biggest city.
I used ZhonghuaZutao1 bats and Ishimaru Denki along with simgoober's Pagoda park. I also got one of Somy's bats called syowa_shop but could never get it to work.

Does anyone know of more Chinatown style bats/lots out there? I specifically looking for some over hanging signs you usually see stretching from building to building over the road or those colored paper lamps usually hanging outside businesses.

Attached is a city of mine that is currently in-progress. It's incomplete, about half of the large map is undeveloped at this point (and most of the region is also undeveloped, for that matter)

This is really my first major metropolitan area I've done to featuring STEX buildings and mods in it, so it's mainly been a way for me to experiment with various features in the Network Addon Mod.

One such special feature I put in is the double-bridges. The one on the bottom right is bus-only. First off, the building adjacent to it is transit-enabled, acting as an offramp for the busses to get to the Taipei 101 building. Next, that bus-only highway goes under a tunnel, then pops up on my main street, where it merges with my dedicated HOV lanes (one-way roads on either side of to an avenue) using one-way lane puzzle pieces.

I chose to switch things up a bit, I took some pics of my Main Street in Abbeville.  It's a quiet small town with a population of 9.138 currently I haven't got a chance to update my CJ in a lonnnnggg time but thought it would be fun to show you guys where Abbeville is current day.  As soon as I can get a chance, my CJ will be updated.  Hope you enjoy a few of these shots......

Thanks, storms! No, I'm not making a GTA city. I just wanted my city to be a mixture of San Fran, San Diego, and LA, though I'm not intending it to be a GTA gang story like San Portello, there might be some similarities. 9.gif

Wow, some awsome awsome ones there! I am working on the downtown area of a city called, wait for it - Metropolis... How corny ahy? But I need two things to make it decent. The mod that makes the lights in all your buildings light up, and one of those riverfront mods, that paves around harbors and stuff... I am a mod on a huge Metallica forum, and I know most hate posts in the wrong section, but I can't find it, I'll post the pics ASAP - but I need these mods. Please?

WyldChyld The "Mod" that lights up all the lights isnt a mod, but the official BAT patch. You can download it at www.simcity.ea.com (You have to be logged in) Its in the BAT section, I think. For the Riverfront Mod... I am just off in the Stex, Ill edit my post when I found them =) EDIT: Well, I found some^^ Industrial Seawalls by Jeronij Industrial CDK by Pegasus Recreational CDK by Pegasus There aremore of them in the Stex, just browse a bit through it EDIT2: Sorry for the formatting, but this stupid Forum dont make what I want =/

One of my favorite downtowns, the small community of Brantly.

mainstreet3ka.jpg

Onlyplace4's western lots along with Deadwood's shops have added much depth to the small towns that I try to create.
