           Hi Schulmanator , Thanks , Tiles , well im not realy sure kind of lost count,

           but id estimate somewhere around 350 .im not sure maybe il count them , when i

           got a few hours.

           Hey KingTitan, Haha , im pleased you get a lil insparation from New Haven

           Its was a cj by Norwoodman that inspired me, so thats cool.

          

           Thanx Rush hour Freak , i never planned the region this big , it just kinda

           happened , it takes up a lot of my time , but im having fun , so who s counting.

           Yarabundi - Hey Thankyou

           Jaquilina - Thanks again jacky for all your support over time.

           Rabbit903 - Hey  ,Thanx for the comment .

Well i got more unfinished pictures for you in this update,I hadnt realy planned an update

but as i felt this an historic Occasion i thought id do a lil update.

Today the region hit 40 million sims -) .

And these are a few of the cities i been playing recently.

A few close ups of a ped mall shopping district i been developing .

[jacqulina 162]

excellent work and pics wonderfull walkways,excellent planning

[Voulpiotis 4]

Wow, 40 million!!!!!! Great! (PS Sometimes I think you are using a cheat for residential demand, is that true?)

[Gridlock 9]

Hahaha - Voulpiotis , dude now thats a serious accusation ,lol , well realy , apart from Nam , the only cheat i have or use as such is, some of my industry such as the Souh bats , they have maybe 2000 industrial jobs , but , .But they are only growable bats , no plop files , so my region must have sufficent demand to grow them, i dont use any cheats and every city is grown with 100,000 start .if i was using cheats , the amount of hours i put into this , the region would be about 3 trillion big.

[Giligone 10]

Wow 40 million! And here I was thinking my biggest ever city of 4.35 million was big! haha. Thats a sweet region pic. How bout a region census shot of everything? lol

[Voulpiotis 4]

Ok, ok, it was not an accusation... lol! Just thought about it after my city had reached 4 million and the demand (all the bars) droped down.... Anyway, hope you'll reach 100 million!!

[Schulmanator 5,803]

That pedestrian mall looks great!

[Voulpiotis 4]

Oh, yes, the pedestrian mall tiles match perfectly with the hirise buildings!

Um, now that you reached 40 million pop. which is the pop of Dallas?

[jacqulina 162]

looking forward to more my friend

[Voulpiotis 4]

Hey! Page5 in cjs! Where is the port?

[Gridlock 9]

        Jaquilina - Thankyou ,so pleased you enjoyed the pics

        Voulpiotis- Hey , lol 100 million , now thats sick .But

                    you never know , maybe one day.

        Giligone - Hi Thx for dropping by , I will do another regional census shot

                   but as the region is so big the pic isnt that great when i resize.

        Schulmanator-Heya , Thnx shuly im,pleased you enjoyed the ped mall

        Voulpiotis - I did try to get the correct buildings to grow for the ped mall

                     but its quite difficult, it did turn out ok , so pleased you

                     noticed .PS , I hope i can live up to ur expectations with the next

                     port city ,i kinda got side tracked , and been spending my time in

                     other parts of the region but i will do more work on it soon.

Here s a selection of shots of New Ark, i intentionaly left the UI in some

pics to give you a feel of the city .Because Taxes are high for R$$$ at the mo it looks like

resi demand is negative , but thats not the case for R$+$$

A few other shots from New Ark Metro.

[jacqulina 162]

wow this is so awesome and growing so well,awesome work and pics my friend and i do love that region shot its excellent

[Dixie 0]

Wow! Nearly 6.5 millions , amazing , Keep it up .

[Gridlock 9]

Hey Guys .

Jaquilina - Thanks Jacky

Dixie -  Thankyou,

Just to let you guys know that New Ark is well on its way to 7 million. Hoping to hit the magical figure soon.

[jacqulina 162]

your welcome my friend and as allways im looking out for more

[Salbador 0]

That city is sick! man i love it the density you have achieved its amazing and i congratulate you on your city planning skills. I have cities over 5 million but i never got anywhere near the size of New Ark. Keep up the great work !

[Voulpiotis 4]

Finally, New Ark! That's stunning work! 6,4 million, without the R$$$ skyscrapers! I'm really impressed by your patience (500 years!) to build that city. As for the Industrial demand, is it mostly dirty and manufacturing? You can search in the STEX for some growables of great capacity to "eliminate" (well, partly satisfy) the demand. Looking forward to the industrial port!

[Voulpiotis 4]

Hey! What the hell?

[RHMgerards 7]

looks really good!! it's amazing how you can still keep the city running with so many residents. and that shopping street looks awsome!!

[GMT 389]

big... very big...

waiting for more

[homeandaway 1]

WOOOOOW! - That is really cool my friend, your city is becoming a ''Sao Paulo'' like!. and am wiating for more and more pics! hope you are well and take care

~Alex~

[ExiL3 10]

I must say, you have done an outstanding job!

Btw, that picture you use for New Haven, lemme guess is it Sao Paulo?

take care,

[Voulpiotis 4]

Sao Paulo? Could be. The SC4 city is better though.

[Gridlock 9]

Hey Guys , Well RL seems to have increased its pace on me at the moment so

ive had a lot less time to play ,but i do have an update ,this citiy has taken

about a month upto now, so you can see how much play time i havent had .

Replies - Jaquilina, Hi jacky , well when it comes to SC4, our build stlyes

        are definately chalk and cheese ,by comparison , but im real pleased your

        still enjoy my cities, thx for calling .

        Salbador - Hey , nice to see you again, and thx for the compliment.

        Voulpiotis - Heya ,yes , New Ark is reaching finally although

        there is still some growth potential in there so it could be a few months

        time before i finaly close the door on New Ark and move on.The industry in

        New Haven is id estamate , as mostly M , HT , and some dirty but only maybe

        150,000 dirty ind jobs in the whole region if that , i used the demand for

        Cs$ and Cs$$ , to increase poplutation , i then gave them all a great education

        so High tech industry has always been in massive demand .I prolly have a very high

        % of meduim and high wealth residents in the region.And all the low wealth residents

        jobs at the large Co buildings,CS and manufacturing .Dirty industry is good for

        kickstarting a region , as it brings in sims that can then be educated, but after that

        dirty industry kinda becomes obsolete as education levels rise.obtw 500 years on slow

        speed as my pc would crash if i tryed to work the city on anything faster.

       ExiL3- Hello welcome  , thx pleased you enjoyed the city and yes your correct the pic

       im using is indeed Sao Paulo.Ive never been and when i saw the pic of the city i was like omg

       that is so unrealistic ,its just right for my city .

       Voulpiotis - Thx -) .

Here s a selection of photos from my latest town/city in New Haven,a historical industrial

town also the home of Saint Anns Cathederal and traditional Clotted Cream.The town is

connected by Canal system and rail to a large port , some 16 km away.Plans to build a highway

in the city were scrapped after protests by local residents and farmers.Sweat shops and processed

sugar industries are the two largest employers in the city.
