    bobinator: Thanks for the compliments. One of my main focuses was a realistic downtown with only a few skyscrapers. I'm really glad you like it.

    To All: The update is still on for tonight. It should come before 11:00 PM, ST time.

    I'll second bobinator by saying that I think your downtown has just the right spread and height for the type of region you're creating.

    oroen: Thanks for the compliments. Considering the amount of work I put into downtown Ocean Point, it's great to hear compliments for it, especially ones that have to do with realism. 10.gif

    To All: Here's the update! I've noticed something odd though. Imageshack, which used to be imageshack.us, is now imageshack.ws. Anyone know why this is or has anyone noticed this? Thanks.

    Here's a zoomed-in picture of some of the wealthiest residential towers along the oceanfront in downtown Ocean Point.

    I really like how you have the university tucked into the middle of all that development.  I also like the way the buildings are right on the edge of the water...Great Job44.gif

     I really like the residential towers too, they look nice on the waterfront, they almost blend in with the surrounding water texture. Well..I also like the Table of Contents, the downtown picture looks nice.

    Really, really good! I like Northwest Downtown, very nice sort of mini-downtown. I also like all the high-rise condos along the beach!

    dhoppeii: Thanks for the compliments. Those were some of my main downtown projects (University and oceanfront), so I'm glad you like them.

    DA: Thanks for the compliments. I'm glad you like the waterfront too.

    RHF: Thanks for the compliments, again on the waterfront that I put a lot of time into. I'm really glad everyone likes that. NW downtown is one of the older areas of town, and I'm quite pleased with how it's grown.

    Mikeaut: Thanks for the compliments. I was really glad when those Zaidis grew; I knew they'd do the trick in downtown.

    To All: I doubt that Part 3 of the downtown update will come today, sorry. If it doesn't come today, expect it to come tomorrow. 10.gif

    jacqulina: Thanks.

    Y_A_H: Thanks for the compliments.

    To All: Sorry, but it's looking like Part Three of the Ocean Point Downtown Update will not come today. I'm still not sure about it though. It should come tomorrow if it doesn't come today, although I'll have much less time tomorrow. We'll see.

    King: Thanks for the compliments.

    Dudy: Hey, great to see you back in here! Thanks for the compliments.

    To All: The Ocean Point Downtown Update Part Three may or may not come today. I will only be on ST today for some time between 3-5 PM (ST time), so I will have to find a window in that time today to make it. If the update comes today, it will definately be within that time window.

    Sorry, no update today. I won't be able to do anything here until tomorrow morning, probably. I'm almost positive, however, that the Ocean Point Downtown Update Part Three will come tomorrow. 10.gif

    To All: Like I said, the update will come today! It will be the Ocean Point Downtown Update: Part 3. It will be another good update, with four additional pictures of downtown Ocean Point. I can almost guarantee that it will be released sometime today.

    King: Thanks for the compliments.

    DA: You will, hopefully soon.

    TPP: Thanks.

    To All: I don't know if I can delay it any longer. But there's two things keeping this update from coming: Real life and homework. Right now, I've got to work on homework, and I might not be able to get the update out tonight. I know, this is crazy. The wait has been so long, and the update, at four pictures (I already took them, but I still need to write text on them and make the descriptions and all), isn't really that big. I will try my hardest to get it out within the next hour. If it's not ready by then, I think I will be able to get it out tomorrow morning, before 8:00 AM ST time. I have a good feeling that it will be out before that time tomorrow morning. I hope I'm not making anybody mad here, because the wait has been so long. It's almost five days now since the last update. But it will come. 10.gif

    Alright, here is the update!

    It's been delayed about five days, so it was definately overdue. I need to get back to updating daily or every two days, because once every five days isn't enough. 10.gif

    I will be going away on Saturday, and I'll be gone for a week. Hopefully, there will be two additional updates before that, possibly three, not counting this one.

    OCEAN POINT DOWNTOWN UPDATE: PART III


    This is the last OP Downtown update. After this, the major Ocean Point update will continue with more pictures from around the city.

    The first picture is of central downtown. Most of the taller buildings aren't located here, but this area includes the Stock Exchange, City Hall, Major Library and other important buildings.

    centraldt2ry.jpg

    Here is the Ocean Point Convention Center. It's located north and east of downtown, but it's still considered part of downtown. The area surrounding it is run down, and could us some rebuilding. The Convention Center is located along Route 28, and there are many events there throughout the year.

    Finally, here is south downtown. It is one of the nicest areas in the entire city, with large single-family homes and nice looking commercial office towers. Ocean Point Park, the baseball stadium, can be seen in the southeastern corner of this picture.

    _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    I hope you liked the update! The next update will focus on a different part of Ocean Point, and should be released tomorrow. 10.gif
