    your very welcome! now i have a suggestion: you know SG's suburban office buildings, like Tucson Tower and VersaCorp? get those and expand the downtown skyline. i tried it in my largest city on the outskirts and it looked beautiful. that is all. ooh, ooh, ooh! add sg's Embassy Suites to the western part of the city, on the coast. as i say, that would be bling-blingin', piggy! (piggy is a good thing, means best bud)

    Foster would be proud if he saw your port, great work man. I really like how you update us with each new addition to the skyline and other things. Do you care if I ride to Sun Valley with Amtrak ? 1.gif

    Ooh, I see a Portland building in there (the Nordstrom building). And, I also agree with kingofsimcity and supersimman... you didn't put too much focus on making a dense jungle of skyscrapers.

    In other words, you really spent some time with planning (or at least that's what it looks like).

    Keep up the GREAT work!!! 1.gif

    RadioheadFan: Thanks for the comment! I really like that building too.

    your_adress_here: Just make sure you get your ticket on time!2.gif
     
    kingofsimcity, supersimman: Thanks for your comments! It was painful not to zone more high density but I'm glad I didn't. I like it better realistic than insanely huge.
     
    MallowTheCloud: Thanks for your great comment!!! It's appreciated! Like I said above, it was painful not to have loads of skyscapers but now that I see the end result I like it better. Yea, it took me awhile to plan.
     
    @all: update late tonight or tommorow afternoon (Pacific time)
