Los Angeles buildings

[DisneyKrayzie 1]

I am starting to make my first BAT in a series of Los Angeles buildings.  I will start off with something fairly simple to practice on. I havent used BAT before but I am very good at modeling in autocad and importing into 3D Studio, so it should be easy enough to figure out. I plan on doing a series of buildings working up to Frank Gehry's Disney Concert Hall. The building i am currently working on is the DWP building http://you-are-here.com/skyscraper/1964_dwp.jpg also on my list are the City Hall, and Staples Center. any comments are welcome, i could also use some pictures of the DWP from street level.

awesome!!!! i always wanted to see more buildings from Los Angeles!! disney concert hall, i would think, might be tough, but i sure as hell would like to see it in the game!! City Hall would be awesome. haven't seen that yet either in the game.

other buildings in L.A. that i would like to see are the AON, US Bank Tower (already done, but could be better), Westin Boneventure, 777 Tower, Figueroa Tower, maybe even Wells Fargo Tower!! i hope you get a lot of support for this man. maybe even i could dig up some pictures for ya

Yeah me too....Its been a long while since such Buildings were even being attempted...I'd love to see just one L.A. building let alone a few like you said you'd try to make....If you do get around to the big biuldings please do them justice since many always overlook L.A. and its marvels....

glad to see im not the only one wanting to see some more buildings from L.A. I am going to try and make them as accurate as i can. It looks like i may be doing some work at a jobsite in downtown so i can get some good pictures while i am there hopefully. once i get a little more detail in the model of the DWP building ill post some screens

I'm currently making the Arco Center, and it should be done and uploaded in a couple of days.

For starters, more DWP pics can be found at www.emporis.com:
Water & Power Building

A couple hundred more LA buildings can be found at the same site, including those requested so far:
Westin Bonaventure Hotel Tower
Aon Center
777 Tower
Figueroa Tower
Wells Fargo Tower
One Wilshire
Arco Center

Some Non-Downtowners that I particularly like:
12400 Wilshire Boulevard, West Los Angeles (missing a picture of the front of building... maybe I'll post one.
Fox Plaza (aka Nakatome Tower), Century City
100 Wilshire (at Ocean and Wilshire Blvds), Santa Monica

And my absolute hometown favorites:
The Warner Center Towers, Woodland Hills, San Fernando Valley

I'll think of some more that I like, but this should easily be enough to keep the BATters busy... heck, I might even sign up for Computer Modeling at school to help out!

Thats so cool!!!  I believe I saw a building on www.simcity.com that looked like the Gas Company Tower.

Um its been a couple of weeks.
