Providence Garden City !

This CJ we take a flight to the up to now third largest city in the mayon province. Population is about 70.000 There´s no real harbour or coastal connection by water. Thareaux Ville lies on the north, Evansville on the east. It´s got the usual enterprises, wide networks and is known for it´s large green parks !

We land at Providence Muni Airport in the dark !

Thank you, Airport was a question mark; Thareaux and other city´s got similair hubs when business community asks for it often there´s no room. First, thought was a for a business landing strip wich would have been more appropiate, still what kind of city do you get if so then ? Hartford City situated on the east side of Mayon Province will feature a custom build airport  right up to reality, or close to !

Aaaah nite lites !:-) :thumb: Pity the main railway station isn't lit up.

And yes, the default airport. But other airports are such a pita to place -- and heavy on deps, to boot ! (Although, just in case you wanna get adventurous, I found a not too bad modular one in only three parts, "Regional Airport" http://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/27006-regional-airport-v1-road-enabled/ ; and Jenx/xannepan has some really nifty rental cars lots to dress it up https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=3014

Also you can kinda cheat with separate pieces of the AC Functional Airports without installing the whole shebang (just the Airport Shuttle and the Heliport)... Just sayin':-)

Thanks, Regional Airport is out of the question to large; AC Functional Airports might be a posibility ! Space is limited just about 25x10 squares on a light elevation, rail and road can be moved; if it´s updated it will be shown in a future CJ !

Pretty awesome...i must admit, CSL doesn't come close to the NAM :P

Thank you, I introduced on mass the NWM 6 Lane avenues in this city to avoid all those congestion problem i encountered in some other cities. RHW is present in this city as a elevated acces highway into the city; there´s also a half circular RHW highway but that takes a real wide curve around town. Some NAM features like  the tulips don´t show right at least I got the traffic lights right; these features and things like highway lightning aren´t used because the game would come to a crawling halt !

Nice looking area - I like it!

Thank you, the area is still in development; some maybe redeveloped (customized parks); as mentioned above the airport is as small as the limited space and time restrictions for release of the CJ, but the AC Functional airport maybe handy as there´s still some limited space to maneuver. Most countryside around, RHW circular highway, some city parts and some neighbouring towns left for a review later !

Hi, it's Samgoogolplexian from YouTube, nice city journal you have!  As other have said, I like the night shots of your city.  I think your rail networks and the trees you used around them look great.  Your parks are nice too.

Thank you, you enjoyed this CJ. Making this town took a lot of patients; some crashes from time to time and a lot of planning ! All shot´s are reproduced with Jasc Paintshop 9, most straightly saved as jpg other´s enhanced. Networks took a lot of time constructing, parks are more a selection of non customizable lots, but maybe custimized in the future. Next a may continue on the urban development. Next CJ will next be focused on some network features, like the canal´s and there industry and some railway stuff !

Cool city! I really like your rail network as well, how you use signals and crossovers and also the stations and freight depot. Do you remember where you found the main station and university?
