    Nice parks and trails, I forget if they're PEG or SG, but I get a lot of use out the puzzle pieces. The fence around the one campanile is particularily nice.

    As far as the downtown, it looks good, are you planning on extending it across the highway?

    Great work! This is totally a modern American city - complete with edge cities! I can't wait to see the space fill in. A large mall would fit perfectly. I have a couple questions re: buildings. What are the four high rises at the top of picture 6.2? And what is the building with the X on its roof on page 1? Thanks!

    Hey Hawkeye, I really like your building style. Where did you get those parking lots, they look great! Good call with using the European tileset. I love the red roofs on those R$$ houses, it reminds me of the clay tile shingles used on the typical suburban home in Southern California. Great location for the ballpark and GM Arena too!
