This is Minneapolis. Its a city that I created to show off some of my new skills, and some of the new mods offered on this website.
Please Keep all pictures at 800x600, or less. Thank you. Mr. C.

Very nice downtown. The surronding suburbs adds a real element of realism to the city. Definetly one for me to keep my eyes on.

Nicely done, particularly the tunnel off of the highway bridge. A lot of the commercial buildings look distressed. Is this a traffic or pollution issue?

    Credit goes out to all the BAT buildings featured and the respective creators. Without you all this city would not have been possible. Plus, you all are singlehandedly keeping Simcity alive because Maxis is giving us nothing. Thanks again.

    That's the oldest city I've seen! 481 years old! Awesome. You must've been playing that city ever since you've got the game. I'll be suscribed. I like the highways and the overall infrastructure. Great job.

    Don't use them myself, way too expensive too build. Just search the forums and there is a tutorial-type discussion called Half avenues and highways.

    I don't respond to or follow many of the city journals, so I must say this is one I'm going to keep reading. The closest I've been to Minneapolis is the international airport there(for connecting flights), though if the actual citiy is as cool and vibrant as your region, I must go there sometime. Keep up the good work!! -Dan

    Wow, nicely done. Some aspects are weird, like the red roads, but I like the massiveness. It's very detailed, and is very aesthetic. Nice job!

    I am sorry I revived this...I was looking for ideas... I didn't even think about looking at the last post date...Didn't know this would be taken as bad form...I thought the forum was for the sharing and searching for ideas that make game play more enjoyable. Don't cruxify us. The reaction of some community members when some thing like this occurs could be a reason why  this person hasn't posted in while... Again sorry
