65 - Illium Revisited
It has been two years since we last visited Illium and in that time it's changed significantly. The methods and outlook of city planners have changed significantly and the cluttered disorganized mass of skyscrapers that once was Illium has given way to order and aesthetics.
The train tracks which crossed many roads and caused a lot of traffic problems are now underground and connect to the subway system. The heliport that once caused a lot of pollution and noise complaints by residents has been moved over to the industrial district in Avalon. Some skyscrapers have been dismantled and relocated in order to make space for more parks and open spaces. Finally, the shoreline has been moved back a little to make more room for ships as well as an industrial seaport.

Here is a before and after picture of Illium.
(I've re-made Illium 4 times in the past 3 years of playing. What you're looking at is 3rd to 4th)
