Guilliano, Revisited - Part 1
Yes, we are going back to Guilliano yet again. I've done some major reconstruction a while ago, refitting the city to the specs I make my cities in nowadays, and I partially succeeded in that, because it's an old city of mine and retrofitting doesn't always work. Still I have some nice refits here and there I'd like to show you. Since this is a two-parter, I start on the eastern part of Guilliano.
First up is the Central Station area. The station has been there since the beginning of Guilliano, but I've added quite some parking lots here, so people could park and ride here. I also connected the high-speed line to Konrad directly to this station.
I also added a few canals here and there. They give a nice touch to the scenery...
NOTE: Imaginia used to be part of the Sÿd-Vattirik kingdom between 932-1544 A.D.
Another thing I did is refitting office areas with some new, great BATs from the STEX. I love the work of Reddonquixotte, Jasoncw and the NYBT there!
Next up is the riverside quays. Previously, this was an empty area, but I did find that illogical. It is a scenic spot with a nice view over the Schelling River, so I introduced a nice quay park with Marast's River Embankments and the SFBT Park fillers. Below is a close-up of the Empire Memorial Park, which honours the old Nagaskan Empire. There's a beautiful looking art museum in this park and a look-out tower. The whole park is surrounded by modern office towers
A zoom out:
And of course the obligatory infrastructure features. I've reconstructed the C42 (previously the A40) from 4x2 lanes to 2x4 lanes. I got rid of the unnecessary Collector-Distributor system, which drastically reduced the footprint of this motorway:
Still, at one section it's split up I had to pass a RD-6 there, and I found this clever solution to pass this road...
Here is one of the two roundabout interchanges of Guilliano, where the C42 crosses with the back-bone of Imaginia, the C75:
To the west, the C75 runs elevated above all other networks on an embankment.
And to conclude, a night shot of the stretch
Stay tuned for part 2! 
Best,
Maarten
