Possibly a graphics problem?

I have a problem with buildings not appearing.  The ground textures will show up, but the buildings don't.  The following screen shots are what I get:

You can see that some buildings show up, other do not, just the ground textures.

Here is the only shot I had taken of the city before the problem occured:

And here is a similar shot.  Some of the buildings have changed of course, but as you can see, the ones not appearing are standard buildings that have grown naturally, not anything downloaded or plopped.

I am using Sim City Deluxe on a Mac Powerbook, 1.67GHz G4, with 1 gig of RAM.

I removed all the plug-ins I had installed recently, as well as put back the one I removed, and it had no effect.  Has anyone else seen this before?

Thanks.

Check your graphic setting to make sure they are not on low.

Ah, the empty lots bug.

I''ve looked over that guide, and it appears that I have a similar problem but not exactly the same one.  My problem is that standard game buildings aren't showing up.  The absent buildings are ones that appeared before.  If you notice, the black "Boutiques" building in the second image is one that has disappeared in the third image.

Did you actually try the steps in the guide?

If so, this is very strange. Graphics settings would only turn down the amount of props, not actual buildings.

The steps in the guide deal with deleting the landmarks that are growing on the wrong sized lots.  After checking the lists there carfully, I have none of the problematic buildings mentioned.  My problem is buildings that had previously been shown just fine - the Boutiques for example - are no longer being shown.  This is a standard SimCity building.  It's also interesting that this is only happening in one city in the region, not everywhere.
