    a pretty faithful recreation of New York i'd have to say, delete some of the wren insurance buildings though, looks a bit repetetive, but once thats fixed i'd have to say it looks pretty good 44.gif

    I really like the Pan Am and UN buildings, also I'm guessing you are only using the New York Tile Set. Try and use others to add more variety. There is a mod called Go Away Wren which lowers the frequency and probablity factors in which the Wren Insurance Buildings are built. Anyway, great city superstar and can't wait to see more in the future. 2.gif

                                          Story...
     
    So one sunny july morning Kate had got a phone call telling her to go see an old friend, they planned to meet on the circle line boat at 11:10, so Kate went got on the boat and waited... waited... waited....
      The ship started sailing off Kate sadly stayed on hoping she would meet her friend on the ship... but no, she wasn't there...
       Kate sat down on a seat looking at the view of the amazing Manhatan...
     
    /idealbb/files/Nice.jpg
     
    Then a huge BAM was heard! the ship took a big hit a little boat had hit it... Kate went flying to the other side of the boat flying above the adge of the boat holding on to just a pole... about to fall in the water...
    Help me!!! please... She called out...
    A man came runnig to her.
    Give me your hand! he said.
    She tried reaching out her hand, she couldn't reach his, he lowered his hand a bit and got her, pulled her up and saved her...
    Thanks... She said.
    It was nothing
    I'm Kate
    Mike
    The two started talking, when leaving  they told each others phone numbers and that was it for now...
     
                                                  Region Update
     
    Got some pics of how the region developed
     
    /idealbb/files/r2.jpg
     
    and later
     
    /idealbb/files/r3.jpg
     
    And another
     
    /idealbb/files/most.jpg
     
    I'll start finishing it off the main look and then this should be better...

    Looks pretty much fully developed, although midtown should have maybe only 70% of the high-density buildings it has now, but I'm not sure, as I only really see Manhatten from the BQE when I come home from my grandma's.

    Wow this looks really nice! Just a few suggestions, you might want to add a few more ports down at the bottom of Manhattan and a few more zoning down at the very bottom of Manhattan. Other then that it looks awesome!!! I'm glad its finally starting to move along quickly! Keep it up. -uncrazycooper

    Well, at least the Brooklyn Bridge is something to agree on in SC4 for realism (or kind of) but keep on going.

    I made the citicorp center, and soon will release one, for now here is a pic of the area, as you can see it is all developed just need to mess around here a bit to get tall building and just to make it look like downtown, no citicorp yet, old pic
     
    /idealbb/files/Finm.jpg

    Wow, that's awesome!
    Where did you get that...er, I forget what it's called...the sloped building next to Bryant Park?

    And I've been wondering, are the zoning laws from the 1910's still in effect in New York? You know, the ones that required buildings to have setbacks?
