Well, as a quick reminder of what it looked like at the beginning:

Starting development:

And the result:

And now, just some impressions:

(You should never try to build such a city with a demand mod activated. If you're unlucky or stupid, like in my case, you don't have enough different lots for the high wealth sims and get the same buildings everywhere. I mean, in the residential districts it looks quite good, but only the Grantosa Café along the main street looks a bit....weird)

More like a high-tech wharehouse section :D

Here's the problem a bit more clearly. The red-brick buildings are looking all fine but the Main Street is just ridiculous.

Well, that's it, the next time it's goona be a mmp/nature theme (maybe a creek/river? Maybe it flows through a small town? We don't know yet^^). I'm just not good in building bigger cities:D Have a nice weekend!

GoKingsGo: I'm glad I could help you:3

Ln X: Well, they turned out to be clean and modern:D The problem was, I had to use a demand mod and raise the demand for §§§-Sims, because else the CBD probably would'nt grow well. But now, the industrial areas such as the w2w-areas don't look really good. I think I will just destroy all buildings again, put the demand mod off and then let it grow again, let's see...)

Caracortada: No, it was my bad, I'm just sometimes a bit "slow" in my mind, so it was actually pretty understandable, I just didn't got it because of.....myself, you know?^^ However, do you know any good modern lots for the CBD? As I said, I'm probably going to do this whole stuff again, so I'd do some things different.

You can easily go in a fix the main street by plopping different buildings. The residential area looks pretty good.

Looking great. Taking pictures with the high shadow option will make everything look even better!
