Lomonosov
Hello again Simtropolis! The new update now bring us to my favorite city in Fairview. Lomonosov!!!
Originated to build the glorious Lomonosov Moscow State University, the plan failed due to gigantic size of the BAT and LOT, also the result is hideous and ridiculous. So, I deleted the university and carry on continuing building the city.
There are approximately 84,000+ people living in the city. Around 78% of them are High-Wealth people that started to move from Stirling (the neighbor). Since then, the developer races to each other to build as many and as high Luxury Condominium and Apartment as they can.
The demand of residential area keep growing and growing after many public facilities has been built, and hence, due the lack of space, the building get higher and higher..... (I'll explain the awkward highway later...)
Here is another shoot at the residential area.....
Now, we move on to the Commercial and Business aspect of the city. Since the rich guy started to move to Lomonosov, many offices and rich shops also start to move to Lomonosov. And as usual, High-Rise offices started to built and dominates the skyline of Lomonosov.
The iconic building of Lomonosov is Amethys Hotel Tower(left one). With around 700 luxurious room, this hotel is one of the attraction of the city, due to the unique design of the building, and the luxury around the building.
The Plaza, is where all the accountant, lawyer, CEO, or bunch of that, have a rest and nice lunch, and a little bit enjoyment outside the office. Sometimes called the K-LOM Plaza, since the city radio station build at The Plaza. It is also attracted more tourist and bussinesman to the city.
The city also had a huge concern about education. Since the failure of the Lomonosov University, the government peoples redeemed themselves by building Guggenheim Museum and Main City Library. Also, the Education Ministry is run well with the amount of money concentrated to education. Guggenheim Museum now become one of the cultural attraction in the city, as well as street performer also like to play around the avenue....
This city also built the replica of The St.Petersburg famous Church, and hence, it also the home of the Orthodox Church Community of Lomonosov. But, the amazement didn't stop here, since the building is so small compared to all of the skyscrapers. It's colorful theme become the heart of the city. But the avenues have to be replaced, and a roundabout was made, circling the church. P.S: It's also main attraction of the city!
Nokia, (no, not that Nokia), proposed for a little bit area for High-Tech Industry, since all the engineers and the advanced programmers start to move to Lomonosov. So, Nokia have a little plant at Lomonosov, and added jobs to the people of Lomonosov.
Labor Avenue is the most controversial area of the Lomonosov city. The Stock Exchange is build in that avenue, and every Labor Day, the road always closed due to protest and demonstration. And not just that, it once was set on fire due to massive protest in Nokia workers. (It's real!)
Now, I'll explain that awkward highway before. Since a lot of offices build in Lomonosov, workers in Stirling also has to commute to Lomonosov for jobs, and the North Bic Avenue always crowded with traffic at rush hour. So, without any further planning, the highway built blatantly, and sadly make the city look little bit uglier. But, hey, at least the money is still keep running!
And now, lets take a look at the night view of the city....
Thanks for visiting! Comment, critics and suggestion are well appreciated.
