    Wow excellent work! I'm from Farmington Hills so I'll be interested to see how that develops.

    That's my home town! So yeah I'm definitely gonna work hard on it. :D

    Excellent! What part of FH? I'm from 13 and Farmington.

    I lived in two neighborhoods actually, a town house complex right next to the beautiful I-275, I-696, M-5, and I-96 interchange.... or you could say near Halsted and 11 Mile. The second one was near Middlebelt and 9 Mile.

    I kind of had a feeling that I would be in familiar territory for many simtropolians, including me. :D :D :D

    Cool, I've golfed quite a few times at the public course near 11 and Halsted. It sounds like you are no longer living in Farmington Hills?

    Nope. LONG gone. I've been back several times, but I haven't lived there sense 2002. I miss the place like crazy though. I also couldn't tell you why. :uhm: It's just home to me I guess. lol.

    No doubt its a nice place to live.

    There are so many areas I'm interested to see develop. I noticed you briefly made an update showing the west part of Detroit. Have you started to develop the Brightmoor neighborhood? And I'm also interested to see how the office complexes visible from the Lodge in Southfield turn out.

    Anyway good luck and I look forward to the next update!

    Very impressive - that looks like it took a lot of work - not only in SC4, but editing the images as well. You've done a good job breaking the grid, and that can be tough where recreations are concerned.

    Thanks a lot coug.

    And thanks to everyone else who has enjoyed this CJ.. I really like how it's turning out, and I've been gaining a TON of experience just by playing this region... I don't plan on remaking anything until I fill out the entire region, but who knows.. by the time I get to Ann Arbor.. My experience might be good enough to not have to go back and remake anything!

    It will be super long before that happens.. But I'm sticking with my promise that it will happen!

    Lets just hope my computer doesn't crash all together with this huge region and all the plugins I've downloaded.. I've had my computer randomly shut off on me a few times when I've had to use the Hard Drive for a while... so I'm going to the technical section on this forum to see what I can do..

    I'm also in a computer app's class this semester as well and my professor is teaching us how to put in RAM.. I've never really been geeked for the technical things of a computer.. but I might just so I can finish the region with no permanent damage to my computer.

    Why am I SOO obsessed with Detroit???? I will never know. =P
