Welcome back everyone and thanks for all of your comments.  Please note that I will devote an update for comments that have specific questions, comments, or concerns.

With this update I have been refining some of Revelstoke's main arteries.  Even though it is not featured in this update via pictures, you can see some upgrades in the region view (last image for those who don't care).  The highway that runs from east to west through the city is called the Crowsnest Highway and I am upgrading it to a dual RHW and those interchanges are far from simple (especially when using a Slope Mod).  If you look closely, you can also see some development west of the city (across the river) including a major stadium, and beyond the city limits a small, commuter town that will facilitate some of the farming communities expected to eventually populate the city.

I apologize for the week of no updates but I have some texture problems in the city.  To be courteous I did not want to feature them in this update as it is not a forum, but if anyone has any help that they are willing to offer please PM me and I can offer you some shots.  I am sure it is just an incompatible plugin but that's what I get for downloading dependencies; ironic eh?

Well without further adjure I present you with Revelstoke's newest suburb: Harbour Landing (named just for the Regina viewers).  Comments are appreciated!

What's really cool about that update is how you combine methodical, almost-algorithmic design proceedures to please the simulator with extremely realistic Middle American suburbia.  That region view is to die for.

Nice 'tutorial'.  It's great to see in detail what steps you take when developing a new area.  I'm not so methodical by nature myself, but your method really produces great results.  It makes the viewing of this CJ feel like watching a real city grow. 

I think I might have said this before, but I love those suburban ponds in the region view!

As always Riley super work.  Also the tutorial is nice as well.  I can see the town of Strathmore coming up there nicely.  Can't wait to see how it gets swallowed by an ever expanding Revelstoke.. Keep up the good work!
