Central Acer, with a population of almost 500,000 people, is Acer's well-known urban core. Three highways cut through this part of the city: Interstate 1 running north-south, Interstate 3 running east-west, and Spur 1 which tunnels through the famed Sky District.

Acer was founded in the "Historic Downtown" area, where a small town of about 15 blocks was founded in 1890. The city exploded beyond the flat coastline of Central Acer and out into the mountains and valleys that lay on the horizon.

Anyway, onto the pictures:

dense urban jungle covering the land on both sides.

Historic Downtown, once well known for its peaceful central park and quaint 1890s-style apartment buildings,

is seeing modern development creep up on it.

The Sky District is home to downtown's three tallest skyscrapers. Land value here is extremly high - and so is traffic.

Spur 1, which is below grade in the Sky District, along with its frontage roads, are clogged with commuters during

morning rush hour.

compare with the massive Port Acer region to the east.
