Well it looks like you've been busy. I like where you're heading now. I'm not from Toronto, but I have been there numerous times visiting one of my best friends (he lived near Royal York station and only recently moved downtown). So it's nice to now see a part of the city I recognize. Keep up the good work.

EDIT: Looking at your posted photo you seem to be on the right track. Just watch the ridge along the Humber. I have noticed that the river has a very clear flood plain bordered by steep steep ridges that then plateau. You seem to have it just make sure you keep that up heading away from the bridge.

    Better shrink that above pic. It's awfully big.

    Looking very, very good. I see you're getting close to my street! I'll be watching carefully, ready to pounce if you don't get it right! 2.gif

    Wow that is a very good update!

    I like how close the city you've built looks like the actual Toronto.Also the Bats are very good in both quality and realness.
     
    Great job!

    I wish you could BAT as well, then we would have more Toronto Buildings in the game, we are lacking them!!!!

    How long did it take you to do the city proper?  This is the best version I've seen so far.  Don't rush it just for the sake of posting it here though, it's really good work.
