    This is New Hattan's main port at the moment. Port Yersey handles 30 merchant ships per day, on average. Not bad for such a small town!

    Thanks buddy! Although in update three it may not be very small anymore, I will not forget the realism, jus those small touches which add the finishing touch. Like those harbors, trees and ships in the right place.

    In the next update it'll be much bigger, but I'll never forget the small details 4.gif

    Hey guys, I've started to work on the first railways and highways already, so they'll fit into the city bettter in the end. Now my question is: Do you like this interchange of the expressway? I want to remove that onramp which goes as a bridge over the rails and joins at the end.

    And just a teaser for update 3.

    As for the interchange, I've replaced the high expressway bridge with a small avenue bridge. It looks much better indeed 4.gif

    Hello, and welcome back to New Hattan.
    I've been working on the city very much yesterday, and today I made everything ready for the update. I hope you like the developement.

    An overview of New Hattan.
    gamescreen0121-1.jpg

    gamescreen0120-1.jpg

    And here are the district names. I'll show you a couple of them in this update.
    gamescreen0122-1.jpg

    Port Geaux
    New Hattan's new port, built not a long time ago to handle the every increasing amount of ships entering and leaving the city. On the island are a couple of hotels which handle a big amount of tourists every day.

    gamescreen0132.jpg


    Dimburg Tower
    New Hattan's highest tower, acting as a tourist hotspot and an antenna for radio and television.
    gamescreen0123-1.jpg

    gamescreen0124-1.jpg

    Flore station/interchange
    As New Hattan is growing and the amount of ships and cars are increasing rapidly, a train system could not be forget. Flore Station will open soon and will be able to handle enough trains for the next decade of growth.
    gamescreen0129-1.jpg

    Currently, New Hattan's train system consists mostly of 4 tracks.
    gamescreen0130-1.jpg


    Louetta Gardens
    New Hattan's main tourist site, known from all over the world! 20 different gardener companies take care of all the gardens and the momumental appartements, creating an unique setting around the church.

    gamescreen0125-1.jpg

    gamescreen0127-1.jpg

    gamescreen0128-1.jpg

    Before I expand the city, I'm first going to re-develop Rouette, on the east site of the city. I'll post the next update when I finished the first part.

    I hope you liked this third update of the city of New Hattan 4.gif

    @ Stef: Thank you man, I love them too!

    @Ludmamm: I think it's the wild river map, it's located in the plains section.

    @hotChocolate: Oops, my fault! I'll change it. Thanks for the comment.

     thougt so too - in the beginning.

    In the city I live there are 55.000 inhabitants, and it has got only 1    double-laned road, as an example. The road to port Geaux is not yet congested, I can always change it
