Your use of open spaces and greenery is very tastefully done! The resulting visuals are appealing and tranquil.

~ Excellent road work and highway layouts with one of the best utilizations of embankment sets that I have seen so far. Some builders tend to get into an overkill situation when using these sets in my opinion. Not you ~ you have a nice balance happening.

Your diagonal areas are very well done and you do a great job of adjusting to the game's limitations when building this way.
 
The result of your overal style is quite artistic with the many flowing lines created by your nicely placed transportation networks wrapped around pockets of impressive development.
 
Keep up the nice work!

    Hmmm... I'll have to experiment with that...

    Great update! I love your Millionaire's Row with the separated streets. You have obviously taken lots of care with the placement of your transit and it shows!

    Thank you for the information, Fabio.

    Diamentino is a great looking portion of your city. 29.gif
    I think you have used roads for quick traffic, and you put streets parallel to the roads to access the buildings. That is a simple yet very efficient and realistic traffic choice.44.gif

    I am stunned by your work. The time put into this has shown off, especially with all of the water embankments and carefully planned highways, and roads sculpted into the mountains. Keep updating 44.gif

    Nicely done, your town looks incredible at night. Man would I like to live in one of those neighborhoods. Also wondering, where exactly did you get that Tower Alencastro?

    There is a strange contrast in Santa Maria between the low-density high-income houses and the high-density commercial buildings (tall skyscrapers).

    Nevertheless, it's yet another beautiful city in the Sinop region.
     
    PS. I would add a second connection between the wind-mill park and Santa Maria, just in case one connection is damaged due to a natural disaster.

    @ Sharkbait16
     
    thanks, and you'll see a surprise on the next update, about the clock tower, I got it here at simtropolis.
     
     
    @ Dimostenis
     
     
    yes, I based myself  on Sao Paulo, Jardins and Morumbi Neighborhood, where are located the tallest and more modern skyscrapers right beside the richest mansions of the city.
     
    yes, nice Idea, but let's pretend there a underwater cable as a backup.

    6.gif Wow, I should have seen this earlier... I just got through these 6 pages now. It took its time, but was well worth it. This is probably the best cj I've seen so far.

     
    Your attention to detail is amazing, the traffic network looks so perfect and your city layouts are really refreshing. That gives me much inspiration for my cities. Thanks man.
