-Thank you all for the kind comments - I enjoy reading each and every one and it helps motivate me to continue this CJ.

sHnozZa: Awesome! So much detail, i could look at these pictures all day.

-Thank you - I enjoy adding in all the details so I'm glad when you notice.

ROFLyoshi: Oh wow! Paved streets!

-No more dirty boots :)

agunter999: I love it have you seamlessly put european building in

-I'd get bored without adding in some of these neat BATs - I just chalk it up to the influence of European immigrants in the area. :)

MilitantRadical: Been waiting a while for this entry. Must have taken a lot of work. Great to see the progress. What is that ship you have in the port?

-Thanks - I spent extra time trying to get all the details right on this one. There are a couple ships in the harbor, but I'm guessing you are interested in the French ship. I don't have a link at the moment, but I know it can be found on the toutSimCities website.

EDIT: It's The Belem, by Orange.

Bipin: Excellent! I love towns and cities in a time frame approaching the turn of the century. Great work!

-Thanks - any time you decide to BAT some 19th century creations you know I'll be happy to feature them in New SorGun :)

sri2: stunning old-fashioned cj, shows that large skyscrapers aren't the only thing to admire! can't wait to see more!

-Thank you - It's fun to remember that cities didn't spring up overnight, but skyscrapers will have a place in New SorGun someday.

Prophet42: Absolutely amazing !!!! The attention to detail is just astounding. Defenitely one of the best city journals around.

-Thank you for the kind words!

Benedict: Congratulations, you're back at number one on Ben' Top Ten. I think the image of the construction of the dock is brilliant - it features as the background on the BTT image this week.

-It's always an honor to be featured on the BTT.

Next time, Fredric Stevens and crew leave the big city behind and head up the Rannug River and get a taste of the rural side of New SorGun.

I was wondering if SAM 6 Klinker streets would satisfy the appearance of Corduroy paved roads?

 

Just caught up on the last 6 updates. Very interesting. Glad to see the story progressing; it makes this CJ a lot more than just a bunch of small town pics and keeps us invested. Not sure if Stevens can really do anything about what he sees, though, since he's only around here about once every decade.

I can't wait to see some beautiful rural landscapes. I wonder if we're going to see something like New Sorgun in 1860-ish (a small village surrounded by fields and forests), or of we'll get a look at some hyper-realistic 1800's country side, where everyone owns a farm, far from each other, and each property takes up acres of agriculture.

Either way, i know that i especially can't wait until the 20th century comes around, where the streets are ruled by urban sprawl, industrial development and automobiles!

I love seeing the Sorgun Bay develop, this is really quite a spectacular series SimCoug!

I missed the last one, but I just went and read it.  Those pictures are simply stunning, wow.  And it doesn't surprise me that Mr. Finch is a bit defensive about his HR practices.  We're still a few years (decades?) away from workers' rights really coming to the forefront of politically hot issues, but they were certainly important for a long time before that, regardless of how much attention was paid to them.  Great story, great entry.  It strikes me that Mr. Finch knew of the murder before he was told that day...

Wow, amazing CJ SimCough! I heard you had the best one in Simtropolis and over the last few days I've read your entie CJ from beginning to this current entry and cant get enough of it! It's beautifully done and I love the neat stories you incorporate into it. I've come to love and admire New SorGun and surrounding communities and would hate to see it lose out against NPRR's Steamer's Bay, it was sad to hear that Mr. Delin's Porthaven was bought out by the NPRR :( One thing I noticed absent was with all the maritime traffic off the coast of SorGun and a huge island too out in the water, is there a lighthouse somewhere being a beacon of safety and navigation in the region?
