(I decided to post this CJ in the new section. The forum version can be found here.)

Hello and Welcome to my new CJ: Haven Cove! This is my 4th attempt now at a city journal and I hope that this will be very successful. Haven Cove is based off a fictional island located somewhere in the Pacific. The city itself is a mix of sprawling suburbs, rural areas and a dense Urban Core. Throughout this CJ I will be showing you places of interest throughout the region as well as giving you insight into how I build my cities. Overall I hope to create a beautiful and realistic American styled city with as much detail as possible. To achieve this I have downloaded hundreds of files from various sites and if you have any questions about these downloads I will do my best to answer them. I will also do my best to update this journal as much as possible and hopefully I will have a new update every week (but no guarantees 2.gif). The final thing I would like to address is you, Thank you very much for taking the time to view this journal and I hope that you comment! So here we go!...

Pic 0.1- After Miles of open sea and nothing but salt air and sun we have finally reached the Island paradise of Haven Cove.

Pic 0.3- The Midtown distirict is home to many loacally owned shops, malls and resturants. Its a great place for tourists to relax and shop the day away.

Pic 0.4- Haven Cove has many opportunities and places to be discovered. We have so much to see so stay tuned!

Well this concludes the introduction of Haven Cove. Thanks for viewing and please comment!

Well this is just splendid... but for your next update can it be about downtown... I am trying to make a realistic downtown and it isn't going too good. Yours just looks pristine and tranquil my it looks rushed uncomplete and other things.

The CJ is fantastic. I've been waiting a long time for this. You can always seem to make a downtown look less dense and more spacious. The only thing I'm concerned of, by the way, is that there aren't many cars...

Sorry for the double post (cant find a way to edit posts in the new section). For some reason the link i posted above is all buggy. If you are interested in looking at my new CJ searching the city journal section of the forums for "Hawkeye's Sandbox" should bring up the journal. Thanks,
