Welcome to the Central Bronx

I am building a region from the original Maxisland, and my daughter and her pals have cities in it, too. So far, I have three cities, North, Central, and South Bronx, named for where my father's family lived.

The names should be self-explanatory...they are basically stacked, top, center, bottom. I have designed them pretty much according to standard grid-irons...I'm a big fan of Hausmannization, I guess.
 
This city is a replacement for East Passaic, which kept locking up and kicking me out. By then, North and South Bronx were finished, so I had to replace East Passaic, which was an economic connection for the region...exporting power and water, while providing jobs for both cities. To the west is Hoon Hay, a New Zealand-style city, named for a neighborhood in my beloved Christchurch. To the east is Mayor Tutorial.
 
I downloaded a bunch of mods from this site, and one of them seems to be boosting my tax collection, so I started off with connecting highways and avenues. The highways and avenues all connect off-map.
 
I'm having both log-in and photo trouble with the program, so we'll have to wait for the photos. In the interim, the population is about 7,000, and the city has a country club, a resort hotel, a cemetery, a church, and a lot of high-value residential.
 
More later as I can figure this technology out!

Wow, that sounds interesting. I don't think anyone has used Maxisland for a CJ. And if they did it must have been a long time ago.
