Shin Shao is a growing city with a current population just over 45,000, with around 1,000 new homes authorised or under construction.  There's a great sense of community, a vibrant city centre, and plenty of things to see and do around the area if you're here on a visit.

It has grew a lot since the last time we visited it. Many new apartment buildings to the north - east were authorised to be built.

Street layout for future residential development:

The new apartments:

Downtown:

Guess you all have been wondering where Shin Shao is located? Well check for yourself (it's on the right below the toolbar):

The region is looking good, can't wait to see more

[art128 4,622]

Wow ! Very nice update my friend, I like this area a lot !

The region view is really realistic

Maybe a bit useless question, but how did you create such a fantastic, realistic, landscape?

[De Ja Vu 117]

Dead_End: Everything you see on the map was hand terraformed (in-game). There are some parts on the region that weren't hand terraformed - that's where I used SC4 terraformer (a powerful tool for map making found on the "Mods and Downloads" tab of the STEX).

Ohh, and welcome to Simtropolis!

Wow...that region shot at the end is excellent and breathtaking! Also, nice update man, hope to see more!

[CarmineHilton 6]

What a lovely CJ! =) Really like the region view, with the hills and nice trees...

Wonderful job, really! Many many kudos!! xx

xoxo

Very nice pics. I especially like the new appartements and the lay out around them with the trees, the houses and the curved roads. Looks very realistic.

CraigKingOfIreland: Thank you for your comment! I hope I will satisfy you with this update!

art128: Thank you my friend! Wait till you see the whole region in full resolution! And that's all because of you!

Petrovar Ambassador: You wanted more? You have it!! Thank you for your reply.

CarmineHilton: Yeah, it's lovely isn't it? There aren't many trees in the region and that's because I'm a bit lazy...but soon there will be many

trees and beautiful hills and mountains.

pikatchoum: Yeah, the apartments look very good! The only downside of them are that they appear as commercial lots =/ . Thank you for your comment!

kelistmac: Thank you!

Anyway I have just downloaded (ok not "just", but 1 week ago) the January version of NAM and the RHW - why is it called rural highway? It obviously hasn't the "rural" feel in it . I have built a rail network in Shin Shao and I will make a transit map soon - when I have time. One thing I found out about NAM is that the FAR puzzle peaces can be EXTREMELY useful!

Shin Shao is getting bigger and bigger. I don't know the exact number of population, but it is around 30.000. Not many, huh? My goal is about 100.000 - 150.000 residents. To achieve such a number the mayor has authorised construction of many new apartment buildings to the north, northwest and northeast. While the south bank of the river running throught Shin Shao still remains unpopulated, there are speculations that the Mayor has plans to populate this place with low to midrise buildings. Some even say that he wants to build a golf course, which will undefinitely boost his rating with the rich sims.

Here are some aerial photographs of the northern part of Shin Shao, where the mayor plans new residential development:

Another angle:

And to finish this update: two pictures; one taken at night, and one taken at sunset:

Thats it! If you liked it, please leave a comment! Any criticism is welcomed!

Thanks!

[De Ja Vu 117]

[art128 4,622]

Wow ! what a fantastic update there my friend excellent work !

And yes, the region is big !!! and very realistic

[suomi2005 52]

Your city looks really nice and realistic and it's great to see so many green areas in the city. The long Island that looks very developed in your regional shot reminds me of Manhattan a little bit.

[Haljackey 17,398]

Whoa nice work! Your region is really starting to take shape!

Best,

-Haljackey

[Hawkeye9 0]

Wow, thats a really big region, do you plan to develop all of it?

Anywhoo, love the region and lookin forward to more!!!

[Tomasneto 20]

Wow, my friend, perfect update!!! Awesome work, guy!!!

[Craig91 12]

Indeed, it looks great, however I'm still against all those sprawling ground level car parks

art128: Yeah it's extremely big! But I plan to expand it to the north so it should be even bigger!

suomi2005: You're actually the 4th person to say that. That one of the islands looks like Manhattan. If you say so I guess it's true. Thanks for your comment!

haljackey: Thanks m8!

Hawkeye9: Of course I plane to develop it all! Wouldn't look good if I didn't ehh? Thank you for your reply!

Tomasneto: Thanks!

CraigKingOfIreland: You don't give up easily do you? I'll think about it, and maybe I will destroy 1 of those parking lots.

[art128 4,622]

What a great mosaic, there I really like the downtown

[ilikehotdogsalot 311]

Great CJ! I'm loving this downtown core Very realistic!

Hi all! Did you miss me? I had some troubles with photobucket, because I exceeded my monthly bandwidth

But don't worry, I haven't stopped playing and I'll show the result today.

Here is a picture of the oldest paper factory in the Nagiosaki region. It has currently just over 1.000 employees.

The Radio signal tower:

A nice new neighborhood in Shin Saho:

Shin Shao barje (lake):

The new trains station with the new rail line. **The station still hasn't been opened**

Another green area in the city:

Family life in Shin Shao:

R$$$ demand has seriously increased with the construction of the new train station. Many rich sims find Shin Shao as a place of great business opportunities:

Finished development on the hill North of Shin Shao:

That is it for now! Stay tuned for more updates in the next week.

Hope you liked it. Please leave comment! Thank you!

your city looks really good, fantastic actually, your region is great too. just one thing i should say

i think its gonna take alot of time i know but i think you should let your suburbs extend for a while mybe...so maybe let it extend around the right side of the airport and all the way up to the isolated city, maybe where the farms are even and on the right mountain where your seaport is maybe around thre and stuff but i'm sure you still gonna do all that right??

looks great though.

[Hawkeye9 0]

WOW, now this is some awsome work!!!

I love all the flowers and underbrush, that looks awsome!!!!

You also did a great job with those paths and that lake is superb!!!

Love the suburbs aswell!!!!

Overall an amazing job (as always) and ill be much lookin forward to more!!!
