In the new SimCity, we now have the ability to utilize curved roads. This allows for accurate re-creation of real life cities, towns, and neighborhoods that was not possible in SC4. More road types are also available for use, and with the new zoning system, the possibilities are capped only by your creativity and the tile boundaries.

With respect to these features, this topic is for showing the community your re-creations of places in real life. Whether it's your own hometown or a foreign city, show us your real life re-creations.

I am not sure how you can do a "Real Life Re-Creation" in the new SimCity MMO because of the scale constraint and lack of building diversity.

Ocram's Razor: Though "more things shouldn't be used than are necessary," they're just too fun to pass up! Expect many verbose arguments from me. I will try to write abstracts before or short summaries after from now on.

Words to live by:
"Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit. But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. For to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, and to another the word of knowledge according to the same Spirit; to another faith by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit... But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually..." 1 Corinthians 4-11

"Do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." Matthew 6:34
"Do not judge so that you will not be judged. For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you." Matthew 7:1-3

    You can to an extent. The tile size is a limitation, as is the variety of buildings, but it is still possible. Of course exact buildings in cities cannot be replicated, as was the case in SC4 without mods, and an entire city cannot be re-created because of the tile size, but suburbs or towns could be replicated with more realism than in SC4.
