This is the first time for me posting a city journal on Simtropolis even though I registered 6 years ago and playing SC4 for seven or eight years. Maybe because I'm not a native english speaker and I'm not that fluent but I will try my best.

----------------------------

The City I present to you is called Kreuzberg. It's inspired by Berlin, the city I live in. Kreuzberg is a City with many w2w-'Gründerzeit'-houses (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gr%C3%BCnderzeit) build for the working class.

Between the Houses is a small park giving the residents an opportunity to recreate. Sundays the small streets at the park are closed for a street market.

In the last years many parts of Kreuzberg got upgraded, poor people had to move because they could not afford the rent anymore. Today gentrification has changed the look of this district, only some parts are still like ten years ago.

Literally translated : "stop displacement affordable rent for all".

The elementary school.

In the top of this picture is the Bethlehem-Church. In the middle you can see the elevated 'U-Bahn' tracks. At the bottom there is the secondary school.

In the next update I show you another district of Kreuzberg, great for tourists visiting Kreuzberg because of all the museums and parks.

I hope you liked the first entry about SC4-Kreuzberg. Please feel free to comment and give me some feedback.
