Hello! I'm finally done with my Fall Semester, which has been a busy and challenging one. Best of luck to those of you who still have finals to take! Anyways, I am here with an new update on my second city, ShinBei! In a sense, ShinBei will be the core city in my region.

5th Chome

A main avenue that runs north-south in ShinBei. It is a busy road, yet is a popular tourist destination for its beautiful and seasonal trees, as well as other destinations along the avenue.

Getting off from the MTR Hanamachi Station, we first encounter Central GongHuan University. With TR ShinBei Shopping Ward located just east of the university, students there have a lot of places to go after or between classes.

This Main Library is also part of Central GongHuan University's campus. It primarily serves the university's students and faculty, but it is also open to the public.

Additional libraries was needed in order to accommodate the large influx of students and the public. Thus, a new one was construct opposite from the Main Library. It is located just at TR ShinBei Shopping Ward's entrance and a subway entrance.

Along the 5th Chome, we got another office building and a high school. A pedestrian overpass was constructed to provide workers and students safety when crossing the busy intersection.

Plenty of offices and retails on 5th Chome. This surely contributes 5th Chome as an attractive place to work and shop. Students from the adjacent high school could get some snacks as well. Hopefully they won't cut classes and do so.

Finally, at the end of 5th Chome stands the ShinKai TV Tower. Not only it is a popular landmark as a sightseeing tower, but also it help transmit radio waves from nearby radio stations.

Last but not least, a night view of ShinKai TV Tower. Seems like this is the only night-pic in this update...hopefully this factor won't disappoint you.

Those are some really great images. I really like to see the Tsuutenkaku BAT being used. And the seasonal trees are beautiful (although I suppose that Taipei re-imagined means it was re-imagined north of the Tropic of Cancer!) :D 5/5!

Hey Thanks for your comments and suggestion! I was wondering if you have the URL to Tsuutenkaku BATs?? It would be great if you could share it with me.

Awesome city! Which street-side mod do you use with the seasonal trees? 10/10

Andresta,

I remember searching through SC4D's Japan forum where they have links to Japanese BAT sites, but the Tsuutenkaku BAT I have is quite old and buried underneath the hundreds of BATs I've downloaded. It's possible I got it from SimCity Force, but I do believe that website has been closed due to trolls...
