Wow looks great! A couple problems though, please resize your pics to 800x600 or less. I think they are too big . Also, try to use multiple pics in one post. Other than that, it looks really good!

Cool. Unbelievably accurate. Can't wait until you get to Parkdale. I hope you get my house right. []

P.S. you might want to shrink your pics to 800x600, otherwise they're gonna get deleted.

[profecy 2]

ok no prob, shall do

[GreekMan 246]

I like it continue with this and don't abandon this CJ. It would be cool if you did a urban sprawl around downtown. I would like the urban sprawl to go untill Scarbourgh and beyond. good luck.

[profecy 2]

r these sizes ok, dont want dem deleted

Good Job so far. Looking forward to see how this works out for you. I love your transportation map. Can't wait to see the 401

Edit: 200th post

A spectacular view of the city great job specially the big building's, one thing that is different from other cj's is that your transit system is based on grids not real life system u need a little variation.
Except that the city whole city looks great i am looking for your next update.

[TheJerseyDevil73 13]

Looks good. Nice to see another Canadian city.

Try posting more then 1 picture per post.

[spa 970]

Great recreation. Your downtown is especially good. Where did you get the Toronto BATs? I know Roy Thomson is availabe but I haven't seen First Canadian or BCE place. Did you make them yourself?

[jacqulina 162]

great start looking great so far look forward to more

[toxicpiano 125]

excellent work! I presume its changed a lot since i visited in 98, and also do you plan to missasauga ?(its where my dad lived until he moved back to the UK.)

[Sisu 1]

Great work! Your city looks cool. Keep up the good work.

[Mr. Beer 12]

Great start! You're not doing to build the entire metropolitan area, no?

But you have a great collection of building I have never seen on the STEX...

 

Keep it up!

I think I will keep my eye on this one. I would like to see a simcity version of toronto. I was hoping you would go farther north to include my home but I have to admit that Newmarket is a little far. Great job so far! What are you going to do about the SkyDome? (I refuse to call it the Rogers Center) I've looked and can't seem to find anyone that has made it.

[mtbrocket 2]

I love the picture of the train coming out of the tunnel. Great job with the overhead shot too. Keep up the good work.

This is great! one thing though, John St. north of Front is only one way.

[profecy 2]

@ coolsnake, no thats a toronto building, but u can click on dat link above to get it anyway

 

@toxicpiano sorry i can only make it as far west as the airport, altought Missauga could b done, cuz it sooo suburban, n wit the houses that 6459978 is makin, i hope hes done soon

 

@ sproxxx,  hahaha i refuse to call it the rogers centre 2, haha but im gonna make it myself, cuz apparently KDrax abbandoned it, so ima read up on gmax, cuz i wanna recreate the skydome, ACC, and Eaton Centre, n maybe the Royal York Hotel,i kno itll be hard but, i love a challenge, so wish me luck,haha

 

@gosling, hahaha no prob man, ill make sure i fix, n hows ur Toronto coming along, cuz i like it

 

thanx 4 da compliments guys, remmeber criticism, is always appreciated as well....

 

i wish simcity was able to do more variations of diaganol roads, this would be so much easier.
