    I don't suppose you'd show a photo of Davis street in Evanston or the area around the Montrose brown line? :D

    Fantasic work. I've really loved lurking and followin this CJ. I did once embark on a recreation of Chicago but gave up because of the sheer complexity of the task! My hat is off to you for your outstanding achievement.

    You have made a good job!! I really like Chicago.. I live in Italy but on August I will go to the University of Chicago to study.. I'm so excited!! You know, I live in a small neighbour in the Italian country. My village has only 3.000 inhabitants. I think that when I will go to Chicago I will lose myself in some strange place and I won't succeed in returning home. However the city looks very realistic.
    Bye

    This is the first time I've checked this one out and I must say it's amazing. The details, like the elevated rails, etc. are great. Keep up the good work!44.gif

    Amazing Job, Afuegosky! Truly Amazing! Just wondering if we could get some closeups of downtown north of Grant Park. It looks like you've really tried to incorporate the lower service streets and it looks great. I'm just curious how you pulled it off. Also, where did you get the Marina Towers? Keep up the great work. You can count on me keeping a close-eye out for updates on this cj.

    candens, I will sure get those pics for you guys, regarding to your question about the streets levels, well.... lets just say the NAM is the greatest thing that ever happened to this game even dough I can't use their elevated rail over the road tiles because it crashes on me if I try to lay it down on the city I dont know why?

    -Marina Towers was my attempt on a recreation of the actual towers lol they came out aight,lol

    Jacqulina- thanks for your kind words all the time you've been pretty loyal..

    rohdaraalte9- That tower is called Lucia Tower I believe it should be in the stex.

    Thanks guys more soon...

    Hey, Afuegosky...
    Two things,
    First, this recreation of Chicago is breathtaking, I really like your rowhomes sectors, they look so real!
    The transit network looks very credible.
    The overal ambiance is just perfect!
    Second, just a note so you know that the stex glitch have been repaired and that the link to the Morgen tower is not working!
    Take care!
    EDITED OOPS! I meant "Is NOW working".... Sorry!

    Hey Afuegosky,

    I'm from the southside, do you have any development in the Bridgeport area yet?  The neighborhood that is home to the World Champion Chicago White Sox yet?  There are so many areas in Chicago to see, how about the Hyde Park area?  Or even more interesting, Midway Airport.  The crazyiest thing about Midway Airport is how it is right in the middle of a neighborhood, any chance you'll be expanding that far south?
