Your subtitle about ill-tempered herrings attracted my attention. But wauw, what a great city you made here. Fantastic eye for the detail. I love those pics from the Burj al Arab. You make great use of your plugins. I said it already somewhere else. It's not the number of plugins that count. It's what you do with them.

    Time for a rather large update!

    001.jpg

    The West Transfer Station. This is the largest and the most important station in the whole mass transit system. This is where you transfer from trains to the city's tram network, the station also serves as a airport tram.

    002.jpg

    Right next to the station  new huge office complex have been built to finally satisfy the demand for CO$$. The surrounding streets have suddenly turned into the city's most busy ones.

    003.jpg

    004.jpg

    Some new highrises built just next to the station. The area around the station is filled with rich people commuting to and from the airport to that overpayed job that consist of mostly meetings in some international hotel watching powerpoint presentations.

    005.jpg

    On the other side of the street some more affordable housing have been built. Complete with their own pond and the univerity just on the other side of the street. Well wnough of that let's follow the tram from the West Station to the East Station to get the idea of the layout.

    006.jpg

    Just leaving the West Transfer Station. Almost right away we find ourselfs amidst highrises. Oh is that a starbucks I see over there?

    007.jpg

    A little further down we pass the City Hall...

    008.jpg

    Little Paris and the new Stadium.

    009.jpg

    Here's the East Tranfer Station. Not quite as large but it serves the city well. This is where most of the workers going to the industrial area take the train to work.

    Now for something completely different... Port Noir is growing like crazy and people need someplace to live. Not wanting to keep building more tall highrises the Hill Development Project was launched.

    010.jpg

    It was decided that the area on the hill above scandinavian rowns was the best place to expand the city.

    011.jpg

    A new highway interchange had to be constructed aswell as a tunnel leading up on the hill. The people of Port Noir love their tunnels.

    012.jpg

    Aaah untouched land. Smell that fresh air, hear the birds chirp look at the beautiful trees... Now get yer chainsaw and chop em' down! we are gonna build here!

    013.jpg

    A tunnel leading up to the hill from the Americana Malls were also constructed bringin even more customers to the area.

    014.jpg

    Here you see the main highway tunnel in Port Noir, next to it the railway line that goes outside the city, serving as a goods line only bringing goods from the harbor to the airport and other cities.

    015.jpg

    Main roads completed on the hill... Roundabouts are the latest thing in Port Noir everyone loves them.

    016.jpg

    The first thing to be constructed was a brand new mall. The city's 5th starbucks opened up right away... The people here sure love coffee, a recent study showed coffee being one of the top ten items imported to the island. The most imported item though is frozen pizza...

    Nice looking new suburb. The name should probably have "hill" in it. How about Parkhill? I rather like that name.

    Wow, excellent update!

    I really like that new hill development and the way you've got the streets laid-out up there in the residential section.

    I like it a lot. Very effective highway transit, from what I can see. A quick question, if I might: I am new to SimCity in any real sense, and I was wondering what plugins you used to create the embankments, as well as how you managed to level and raise the ground so effectively.
