New York 2

[langem13 2]

Region view is looking awesome!  Makes me want to go back to NYC.. stayed in Brooklyn for a month a few years ago.. absolutely awesome.  Love it there.

While everyone is entitled to an opinion, it IS BAD TASTE AND CLASSLESS on your part to diminish someone elses work, these cities take time, lots of time, anyone can create anything they want, EVEN YOU!! I think you should apoligize

Thanks all for the comments, I'm going to post this also in the compitition, and I tryed to start a poll asking wich building should I release so check it out!!!

This is looking great. However 1 suggestion. You might want to build up the area between Downtown and midtown a little more. Keep it up!

[ChicAgo333 2]

Woah! looking awesome! Keep up the awesome work!

Too many Wren Insurances!
You may want to get the mod for that if you haven't already. Called Go Away Wren!

I thought that perhaps you may want to create more traffic for New York, because, well, it's New York! If you do, you can go to unusalfire's Traffic Success thread and find a mod that will add more automata without lowering road capacities, thus giving a way more realistic look to Manhattan and the Brooklyn Bridge.

These are just some suggestions to accent an already awesome New York 2! Good work!

(I used the traffic mod on my region, The Great Plains, and it gave it a really realistic look! It's great.)

Now you get to choose, what building do you want in your city, Citicorp or UN, come vote now and see what NY building will you be seeing in your city

Actually, in real life that area is mainly rowhomes (greenwich village), and some 10 or so story apartment buildings, no skyscrapers, really.

Here is a view of Downtown day/night (I know they are lots of wern buildings here...)

 

Day

 

 

Night

 

 

Thank you all for all the really nice comments

[Dexter 40]

The night pic is really cool! Great job Superstar!

[Superstar 69]

Thanks dexter

 

Today I want to focus on one of the custom people here in New York, meet Mr. Citicorp

 

I haven't done such great night lights with him but he looks OK really, he or the UN are both a maybe seen building in your own NY or even just a city...

 

 

And at night, as I said not too much

 

 

Later on you'll meet someone called the UN

[Superstar 69]

One more update today and that is a..

 

                              Story...

 

Forgot to show it before...

 

So three weeks past since the new year, Mike could not get Kate out of his head, he was so in love

[smirkazor 1]

That is an awsome job you have done re-creating newyork, very awome job indeed, must have taken alot of precise measurments for roads etc. needs work around the twin towers area, the shore line looks a bit jagged, need some piers and such etc. great job anyway, keep it up.

[sweetmsdj 0]

Nice job, it's coming along nicely...

WELCOME TO PAGE 8, PPL!

[ak72 54]

I may be blind or you may have explained this but I don't see central park?

[Superstar 69]

You can find central park in this pic, I never really showed a close up but it is time, I never detailed it really but I will

 

 

So hows it going?

 

[langem13 2]

Superstar, let me say that the hype that preceded this project a few weeks ago is being lived up to!  Good job man.  This is totally the game's workings, but the only faults I can see are..

(1) Wren insurance buildings.. too many, as some have already mentioned. 

(2) Too many botiques.  Those @* bright blue, excessively ubiquitous commerical service buildings... I wish someone could BAT something a little less eye-catching so there's more building variety.  One thing I did (and I haven't let it run long enough to see if it's effective) is to download the commerical services multiplier by Toroca.  Oddly enough, I found it at SimCity Central, but not here on Simtropolis.

(3)  I think some additional seaports would be in good taste.  Also, developing the shoreline would be rather difficult, but absolutely necessary in my opinion (Battery Park comes to mind).  Unfortunately Peg's lots aren't currently available, but if you have the time and resources, I highly recommend doing something with the shore, other than leave it as a beach.

 

Thanks for listening, keep up the good work

[Superstar 69]

Guys meet the winner of the poll Mr. UN, soon enough you might just grt to meet him on the exchange...

 

 

Check out the new thread made just for him!!!

New York must be very nice with all those abandoned buildings in the central park area and you did a very nice intro to the UN.

[Vlad788 13]

Very nice, superstar, but you have to do something about those Wren Insurances as it makes the city look very unrealistic, what about that mod? Called Go Away Wren You can get it by clicking on the hyperlink below https://www.simtropolis.com/modfiles/content.cfm?section=MODS&download=329

thanks

Central Park looks pretty good, you only need to detail it a bit now, and what is that picture doing there? Is an admin going to come and delete it?

[jekyll917 0]

The central park's really nice ! Maybe you could add more road or other kind of trees?

[subedei 3]

Looks good so far. Keep the updates coming.

hisc1229: If you want to show off your city then start a City Journal of your own.

Central park looks really good, a few paths would be good. Marrast had some paths on the exchange that are pedestrian enabled, that would be good.

[AX 1]

Very nice looking city! It really looks like the real one... But I think you have too much Hi density res in some areas...

 

Good job continue!

 

The WR Grace building looks good, where did you get it?
