Airman, that's a beautiful airport!

[Artimus 485]

Indeed, I wish I knew how to make proper airports, they're interesting structures to build... 

Currently, I've only covered a few large city tiles in my region... Still thinking about where things should go...

[citycowboy 183]

 

Any Tipps for recreating this Neighborhood or Improvement?

Looks awesome man.

[Thin White Duke 4,072]

Looks great! What I'd do is build a city of around 2-3 miillion around the center of the map. Then cover the rest of the flatlands with farmland and leave those islands in the middle alone (or maybe build a few low-res settlements).

It looks like Snohomish County, WA to me.

A very raw metro map of my region. Tonight I will add the stations in the lines that are already built (1, 2, 4 and 6), and geographical context ( now it looks plain weird, but most empty spaces are water)

UPDATE: A way better version, with improved proportions, geographical context (including hills) and more straight lines:


(yes, this looks a lot like Mini Metro; that's the idea)

====

ANOTHER UPDATE:

I've building the new lines, and thanks Will Wright for the traffic simulator! Many lines' layouts were totally wrong, causing transit havoc. So, an updated map, with lots of corrections and a Metro logo (maybe this is the seed of a CJ, who knows?)

more updates

[Ke|is 3,337]

I had some problems with my computer and some problems with my internet connection but looks like everything is working fine again and these days I've been playing Simcity...

This is the result after two days working on the first international airport of my region. This international airport is smaller than the other one, it is located on an artificial island in the bay of Saitama and the other one in the land...

[Deionn 137]

Everyone can always appreciate some work from Kelis!

[art128 4,622]

Indeed they can! That looks like a wonderful airport. Would love to see some more airport service roads than the one already present along the inside of the terminals, though.

[MilitantRadical 2,844]

Working on some custom lots with seasonal trees.

[Lost Realist 762]

 

Trying to maintain a high level of detail consistently is slowing me down, but I'm starting to get a good workflow going.

 

 

[ROFLyoshi 1,760]

I really like the stream that separates the housing block, it just makes the picture!

[simlink 1,098]

Love those pics. I agree with ROFLyoshi, that stream really does make the picture.  

[MilitantRadical 2,844]

Some custom lots and parks I'm working on for my Olympic/World Expo area.

[freemunchies 124]

Starting to come together:

 

At night:

[jmababa01 36]

Since im working on Metro Manila map of Philippines might release some of the buildings ive been using like the Junk Shop,  6x6 realistic Laguna Lake pumping station, Malacanang as a City Hall and the most expensive City Hall in Metro manila the Makati City Hall worth 10m simoleans in landmark and many more including the most beautiful building in Makati the RCBC Yuchenco Tower which has 350CO$$$ jobs and should be also growable once final version is done. gonna post pics once city grows enough to where you can see most of the buildings im using.

[Huston 5,800]

Here's my two cents for what I've been doing lately

And old city from and old journal turning into an experimental mess

[simlink 1,098]

Oooh, now that is pretty cool. I wouldn't day that's a mess at all... great mix of old and modern.  

[peperodriguez2710 138]

Working on an international airport. Still a lot of WIP.

[gviper 922]

Not much right now, but I've been leveling and creating the area to serve as a new high wealth residential enclave. This specific area has a near mirror north of it that will serve as waterfront hubs for the residential area (land in the background). Going to push the limits on this and still have to peruse the databases to see if there is some content I want to use in it I haven't found yet. Love these boardwalks but man they auto-level so lining things up right took a bit.
 

I'll post a few pics as it comes along but want to save the majority for a future cj entry.

P.S. If anyone has some suggestions on marinas that would go well with these boardwalks please let me know!

additional info

[simlink 1,098]

Digging the boardwalk already. Can't wait to see the area developed, it's already off to a nice start.  

[Drack 616]

needed a runway other than RMIP2...

Your project looks like it is working nicely there , I would suggest checking out NBVC's content on the STEX . 

[MilitantRadical 2,844]

Should be...interesting.

 

[Huston 5,800]

@MilitantRadical - And interesting it'll be

@gviper - Quite the waterfront so far

Meanwhile, new thing for new cj update...should hopefully be eye catching

 

 

[CT14 2,486]

Latest round of inspiration from Vitriuvius and Sir Ebenezer Howard (http://www.spur.org/publications/article/2012-11-09/grand-reductions-10-diagrams-changed-city-planning, Sir Howard's https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garden_city_movement).

The idea of the Garden City region is to build a new city at a suitable distance when the old one is full, not expand the old one. I found these ancient city diagrams to be a delightful model to expand upon as Garden Cities:

Construction of two Vitrivius inspired street layouts as Garden Cities:

The 4-wide blocks translate nicely to gaps for 4-long Brick Canal pieces.

Finished first stage Garden Cities:

A closeup of the SAM herringbone brick street texture matching the BSC parks paths.

 

Sir Howard intended for Asylums of all kinds in and around these cities:

More transit is needed to support higher populations.

@ CT14 

Ahh yes, the garden city movement! Nice to see some variations of the portrayed! Well done!

@MilitantRadical - And interesting it'll be

@gviper - Quite the waterfront so far

Well now, that looks out of this world! Literally!

Coolz!

[CT14 2,486]

Laying out another of the Vitruvius style maps:

This one's a bit close to the next Garden City, but I doubt the neighbors will be complaining.

[MilitantRadical 2,844]

Looks like a lot of fun CT14.
