I have a tut on how to make parks but it is not finished yet.

Meanwhile, you would need these downloads to make my park.

I think there was a thread already like this... hmmm....

Anyways I'm going start off this thread with my downtown park area using, PEG's pond kit. It was from my old region Aertford.

Aertford City - Central Park

Here is a small GLR station in Central park. Passengers can take the GLR all the way to the main rail station, where they can transfer to High-Speed Rail or Regular Rail.

The next picture is the North-East corner of the park. You can the large blue building called blue corp. Where the CEO decided to build a pool on the roof for those really warm days.

A nice overview of the park.

And two nice night-shots of the park...

That's it...

[Follarch 326]

Wow, that's some amazing pics of your city park with the GLR. I would also incorporate the GLR in my cities but whenever i tried it the game crashed lol.

[sqiddster 1]

elemented9 just a suggestion - maybe you should use the rural GLR puzzle pieces for your park....

[jacqulina 162]

I thought about that for a while actually when I was building my region... The ground textures would have looked alot different from the grass textures though... So in the end I decided to use the regular GLR. Anyways thanks for the suggestion...

steelersfanforlife some great parks there

These are the first pics I've uploaded that show anything more than just a neighborhood or city block.  They are all from the same city, which is not yet finished, but I think the BSC Parks combined with Peg's Pond and Stream Kits look pretty nice together.  I also added some of my own lots.  I don't use a great deal of custom RCI stuff, so please ignore the Maxis content.  It also seems I forgot to turn on the automata... oops.  Low-bandwidth warning: the thumbnails below link to very large mosaics.

This park begins with a pedestrian-friendly subterranean shopping area around the university and stretches under the highway to the zoo and stadium.  The pic was taken on a nice autumn afternoon.

That same day, a fly-over captured this image of a popular park in the middle of a residential district full of places to rest and admire the foliage.

A few months later, photos of the same areas were taken from different angles on a balmy spring evening.

Hope you enjoyed the visit!

I am trying to cram tons of people in here at once so this one will be a little bit small:

[Vern 29]

@teeparex & elemented9 - Impressive parks. What are you using to create the walkways in the park? Are these from the PEG Scenic Drive Kit ?

@joshriddle - Very nice use of a small space.

@all - nice work!

[joshriddle 29]

Here is a new one I built

[Murdock813 6]

This is a war cemetery similar to those you can see in Arlington or the Normandy.

[Mr. Cortez 11]

I'm guessing those are tree farm plots, or is there a graveyard set that I've not come across yet?

These are some parks in Vancouver British Columbia.

@ LylyCSM

I've changed the lots of a modular graveyard set in LotEditor (sorry, I don' remember the proper name of the set. But I think I donwloaded it from the Stex). On the initial lots there were many different tombs and mausolea, so, I basically deleted all of them except for one very simple tomb. Then I made some copies of this tomb and arranged them in this nice order.
