jacqulina- Thanks Amthaak- Thumbs up for stopping by, and thanks for the nice comments. jonpaulosiglos- Thanks for the link! As for stopping the growth of maxis buildings, for me it's all perseverance and luck. Custom buildings sometimes appear when you plant god mode trees over certain lots, though.SC4Poser-moser- Thanks!GreekMan- Thanks, your new update has arrived edmonton_stinks- Thanks, and lol, yeah your probably right! 120% more grit.delija21- Thanks for the comment!saathoff37- Thanks my friend NMUSpidey- Haha, thanks!blakesterville- Wow, what a nice comment!

It's my first time replying here, but I have read all your previous updates, and I really like how you added the CC without overdoing it. I'm also glad to see an elevated rail line!  Keep up the great work!

[panthersimcity4 162]

Nice work, I also noticed you added some photoshop effects, looks awesome

[TmiguelT 10]

WOW DUDE!! What a WOW!!

That Skyline looks AWESOME!!.

This CJ has Everything starting From your Peaceful stunning looking Suburbs to Great Congested Yet Organized Skylines. One Of the greatest City Journals Out there and a Truly inspiration to me

Keep Up the Awesome Work!

PS. I got one question tho... Where did you get that EL-RAIL Station? It would be nice if you send me the link as well 

[SC4Poser-moser 0]

cool update man, i always like the use of parks, and the el rail is a plus

I thought pic #16 looked so realistic! Nice!

[antsel 841]

Great job with downtown. It looks really amazing. You have the right amount of buildings and the right amount of empty space. I really like the parking lots you use, they really add a lot to the realism. The parks look great too. Keep it up!

Very Very great downtown you have! WOW! You're downtown really changed! Good luck and God Bless!

[jacqulina 162]

excellent city you have made,great views i love the island.awesome night shots my friend.

I like how you have the gleaming downtown area, but also the areas like Tribeca and SoHo that have the culture of the city. The sprawl around the city reminds me of LA's massive sprawl area. Have you fixed that transport bug, as I see you now have some public transport?

[kccl35 83]

Don't mind if i mention abt your airport. But it seems that if the runways have a heading of 18, the other side should probably be 36.

If those are 2 different runways, then there should be no problem.

[MCO1254 2]

Beautiful downtown district. I'm really impressed that you were able to make the default Maxis buildings look good, not may people manage to do that.

[edmonton_stinks 5]

Amazing downtown! It would be very realistic for a Canadian city--huge variety of wealth levels and building ages. I'm very impressed.

jonpaulosiglos- Thanks for your great reply! jacqulina- Glad you like it aiumkastarkius- Thanks a lot for the comments, and for putting my CJ under 'best cjs ever!'

And oh yes, I have fixed the transit bug now!

kccl35- I'm pretty sure the numbers on the runway are correct. There are four runways, they are two sets of parralels that cross over each other, although I didn't post any pictures showing all the runways in one pic! MCO1254- Thanks very much! edmonton_stinks- Thanks man!

Update 11

This update will highlight some of the suburban areas I have been creating near the north of the city.

 

 

[De Ja Vu 117]

So amazing! I like the contrast between bright and dark! There are so much beautiful areas to look at in the downtown area. The suburbs really look endless! Very nice use of PEGs pond kit!

Keep up the good work!

[SC4Poser-moser 0]

cool update, i always like the way you use parks, it adds so much. And the ponds are awesome. cool industrial area.. awesome

[edmonton_stinks 5]

Wow, very green suburb. It actually makes sprawl look attractive!

[antsel 841]

What a great update! I love what you've done with all the residential areas. I especially love the are with the houses with red roofs and no backyards. Reminds me of some suburban communities in Calgary where they try and fit as many large houses as they can in tiny lots. I also like the way your warehouse district looks. And as always, you're the man when it comes to parks! Great work my friend.

[Twenty20 28]

Wooow, beauuuuutifulllll ! the parks, the marina, the night shots, and the pictures of the suburban areas nicely done, I'm amazed. Great great work here !

[GreekMan 246]

How the hell do you have suburbs like that????

Every time i do that the sims complain about jobs and leave.....

great work!

[mancoolman 3]

great work i was wonderinging where you got those sea walls you used in your down town

[TmiguelT 10]

Awesome work on the Suburbs. I really love the night picture!!

I'll be here for the next update

[068664663 2]

WOW!   Those are probably one of the most realistic suburbs I have ever seen! Great job, but I would like to know what trail pack  you're using.

[Hawkeye9 0]

Wow!!! So i have been checking in and out of here ever couple updates or so but have yet to leave a comment (I dont know why!) Wow, wow!!! Amazing journal you have here!!! The suburbs are amazingly well done, very sprawled and realistic!!! I also love that airport a few pages back, great work on that area!!! However my favorite has got to be the downtown area!!! The choice of buildings is awsome and the placement is just as great!!! The parks and use of the water/islands is incredible aswell, it really ties the area together!!! Overall a outstanding journal that I will definatly be returning to!!!

[jacqulina 162]

beautifull city my friend,you have done well.

SC4Poser-moser- Thanks very much! edmonton_stinks- Lol, thats good to hear. (Or read, I dunno. ) selles- Thanks for the reply. I'm glad you like the 'no backyards' area too! I quite like it. Twenty20- That's a very nice reply, thanks Twenty20! GreekMan- Ahh, well, I do get quite a lot of abandonment once about 3 quarters of a large city tile is filled up, but I leave those areas out of the pictures! Nevertheless I zone commercial along nearly every bit of avenue to try and give everyone as much jobs as I can nearby. mancoolman- Thanks, and the seawalls I use are Marrast's Embankment Set. (On a personal note, the embankment set would be much easier to find if the words 'Sea' and 'Wall' were typed in it's description! Oh well.) TmiguelT- Thanks once again, I always like your comments! 068664663- Thanks! Unfortunately I can't give you a link to the trails I use though, I made them in lot editor with textures I found from a download. I have no idea what the download was called.  Sorry about that!Hawkeye9- Wow, thanks for your super reply Hawkeye!  jacqulina- Thanks for the comment Jacky!

No update this time, but I did take a region view. Parkopolis is certainly getting big!

Thanks to everyone who viewed and commented (and who continue to do so).

[TmiguelT 10]

nice population . your region looks great but it is missing something.... an airport perhaps?

Oh Wait....

Is that thing that has the shape of texas the airport? .....

[mancoolman 3]

Thanks for the help finding the seawalls (I am glad you were able to read through my awful spelling) and great looking region keep off the great work.
