    Twenty20: thank you, i had some of the buidligns previously but i had to go out and D/L them all so i could get a nice little "cozy" feel. much thanks to Glenni and Ill Tonkso for such wonderful European oriented buidlings. if you ever want a shopping district, those are the people you should get your buildlings from! anyway, thanks for stopping by!

    Tomasneto: Thanks

    Hawkeye9: I sure hope so man! imagine "bal eruas, financial capitl of the world...." lol, if you don't beat me too it that is. anyway, i like those low bridges too, ferrys can't get though, but i used to always build the bridges so high up so that ferrys could get through an then i would never build any ferry terminals, so i though why not just have them as low as you can go!

    NMUSpidey: LOL  NMUSpidey, don't worry, thats just a one time price and the store is yours. i think you would save money just buying a shop for 900k then renting it for 75,000 a month however  (1 year for 900,000 or ever for 900,000. your choice!)

    shaylan221: actually it is not. it is an NHP team map, you can find it by searching either NHP or Philly on the STEX

    Shingure: its my hometown (well, i live in allentown 45 minutes to the north...) and that is partly why i chose this map. i hope i don't dissapoint you with how i buidl the city. though, i don't actually plan on building where philly downtown is now, between the Delaware and Schukil (i could never spell that river right!) but more towards the camden side in Jersey. i might eventually move over to the Philly side, but if i did, that would be like in a month or more. anyway, thanks for the comment and kind words!

    SirUnger: thank you

    deathtopumpkins: lol yeah i guess that "shopping district-y thing" did turn out out pretty well, didn't it. thanks for stopping in DTP!

    aaglo: yeah, i was like OMG too. i had to leav 3 crappy messages just so i could get to the page. oh well, at least its gone....... for now.

    blue sinjid: Thanks Blue, those apple stores are everywhere! but at least its not a starbucks, because if it was that is all you would see, starbucks after starbucks along every street. and thanks for the compliment bud!

    lifeless08: i like to think so too, thanks for stopping over.

    Petrovar Ambassador: LOL yeah, i thought i'd finally use that apple store somewhere, i mean... i wouldn't want to deprive the poor sims of precious Ipods! hope to see you here again peter.

    Ntq$310: hey thanks NTQ, i really glad you like it all!

    Also...... I will start accepting applications for Embassies in New Auria now. if you are intrested, just give me a link to the buidling you want to be used as your embassy (or if you don't have one i will get one for you) and a link to your CJ if you have one. i will focus an entire update on Embassies and Foreign Relations.... soooo, the more applications in a faster speed would be great! i hope this will be the beggining of great foreign realtions between New Auria and Nations abroad!

    P.S, it possible, if you have an Embassy built in New Auria, New Auria would also like an embassy in your city.

    Wow, you have made a remarkably pleasant city here. Not bad for a young town! Plus everything else is looking pretty good too! And nice joke about AK, Even I wish I could make cities as coherent as him, I wonder when he is going to make another city...

    BTW, since you were soliciting in chat, I might as well take you up on the offer of a SBU embassy. Give me some time to pick out a nice building and I'll get back to you =P

    Really nice update! I will be establishing a Molowaku Embassy in New Auria, and I want to see your building choices first before I make a decision to set up the embassy.

    I will also bring in my own delegation from Molowaku to visit your region as well. Looking forward to establishing nation ties with you.

    Well that's awesome, because I was hoping for one for the Commonwealth of Paradise. Oh, and if you're still interested, the plot of land for the bank you requested is ready.

    before i start the embassy update, i would just like to breif you all on how the presidential debate went. 

    the winner of the the debate was whoever you liked before it happened. no one was a definitive winner, though Steve Fulworth stuck out of the pack slightly. Liz Hertz was described by many analysts as "out of it" and by others as "confused and disoriented the entire time". 

    before the debate, which was held in the Zohler Center in Bal Eraus, all the canidates did campaigning around the city. every intersection was hgihly congested due to extremely tight security. 

    2.jpg

    Senator Liz Hertz gatherd a meager crowd earlier today at her campaign stop at the Bal Eraus School Campus. 

    3.jpg

    Mayor Ed Frost garnered quite a few supporters in front of the Zohler Center a few hours before the debate for a pre debate rally. 

    1.jpg

    Whoever was not attending Liz or Ed's rallys was on the green lawn at the newly finished New Auria Presidential Mansion in Downtown Bal Eruas. the mansion, which was built by the current administration, was the location of the largest political gathering that day. thousands of Fulworth supporters came out to here the president speak before that nights big debate.

    Just a quick reminder..... tommorow is the last day for embassy requests for a while.... there is no work involved on your part.... just tell me your city/country name and a(n) (optional) building that you would like to be used and then i'll do the rest!

    Cheers,

    alright, i come before to you today with my newest part of New Auria! in flauritar, as i mentioned a few updates ago, we have the city of Bal Eraus devolping very nicely being funded by the New Aurian Government. but now, with the commericial success of Bal Eruas, several organizations got together and began a joint funded project with the government to create another municipality within the state of Fluaritar. the new City, named godsburgh, is in the early phases of construction as documented by the few photoes below. i hope you all enjoy the growth of godsburgh!

    1.jpg

    the plot of land that will serve as the epicenter of the Godsburgh Project. if all goes well, a port is slated for construction in a few years time on the "horn" on the bottom right hand corner. 

    2.jpg

    a single stretch of freeway was built between Bal Eruas and Godsburgh for easy access between the two to-be metropolises. plans for another stretch of highway between the two cities is also in the works, once again (fingers crossed) if all goes well. pictured above is a bridge without a name as of now, hopefully a symbol of the city in the future. 

    3.jpg

    construction begining in the waterfront district of Godsburgh. original plans for the area was to be a strip of skyscrapers along the water, however, the devolpment commitee has been persauded by a generous contribution by New Aurian Billionaire, Sam Donner, to construct a stretch of parkway along the waterfront in memory of his brother, Andy Donner who was hit and killed by a car when out for a morning walk . the park will have many walking/jogging trails, and scenic veiws of the river and city. 

    4.jpg

    The trails competed and minor foliage planted. there will be crossing gaurds at every street corner to esquort pedestrians safely across roadways.

    5.jpg

    more trees and scenic rocks in place 

    6.jpg

    the park completed in all its glory. Sam was very proud of the creation and was sure that his brother would have loved to walk jog in it! now to construct the rest of the city!

    City isn't impressive and the fact that you support Palin is a disgrace. Hey if I lived if Maine, I could see New Auria from my house! Should I run for president now?

    Are you serious? I don't think you should be criticizing his city OR political views. That's his creations and opinions, and if you don't like it, get over it. At least provide some constructive criticism if you don't like his city. Otherwise, don't comment.

    spore415:
    Forget that guy, I think your city looks great. As for the parkway, you should make the parallel roads one-way to make it a bit more realistic. Great work.44.gif
