Industrial demand fullfillment w/out industry

[c-doodlez-man 16]

I need a way so i dont need to build any industry. I want it to be fufilled. I'm trying to make a replica of a city and it doesnt have much industry in it. Is there a modd or lot for this?

satisfy the need for industry by putting it in a neighbor city or build it through time... most cities start out as an industrial complex

like i said the town doesnt heve any industry. when I say that I mean the whole region not just the city. I'm making colorado springs, and there arent any factories per se.

i could also use a res demand booster. Either one. I just cant have any facoties for realism reasons. I searched but couldnt find any.

Remodel a set of industry lots to look like commercial.. The game must start with industry somewhere.. it can be replaced later.. also, farms count as "industry" to get the game rolling.. surely this "model city" you want has farming.. hehe A region can quite easily be done with a "farm start"

i just went on google earth and looked at colorado springs... there is plenty of industry it is mostly manufacturing and hitech...

Yes you can also see in sc4boy's pic that high industry areas are near major highways. This will also help with demand on other new ciites.

Even if you are forced to build industy in the beginning to fill demand, if you educate your sims the demand for dirty indusrty will eventuallty drop to a point where it can be replaced with IH or be rezoned.
