Today we are going to have a look at “Cherbourg”. Build together with “Lenin Park” these quarters have no history but were supposed to blend in with the city and especially with the surrounding neighborhood “Queens Park”.

But besides laying out the main infrastructure for these quarters, like hospitals & schools, there needed to be some major transportation projects to be done.

Most significant is probably the “A88”. A whole new tunnel needed to be dug underneath “Birmington” and its train station. Main problem was that the train traffic should not be interrupted. But after a long building phase in which a lot of renovation of the ground above the tunnel has been done, it now fits in perfectly to the city and is nearly invisible.

So let’s have a little look:

The new intersection "Freeman West" and the entrance to the "Birmington Tunnel"

The other side of the "Birmington Tunnel". The railway station stayed untouched, only "Mosside Park" got a little reshaped.

Here you can see the North part of "Cherbourg" with the "A88" at the bottom and the "Lime Street Commercial District & Park" in the middle of the picture. The Tram also got extended by two stations.

And this is the main part of "Cherbourg". In the middle is the "Cherbourg Shopping Mall" and at the top you can see the new railway station "Cherbour", for suburban trains and national rail.

But about all, I want to thank all the great modders and bat & lot creators out there. You do such an awesome job!

And thanks to all the people who visit this CJ!

I really loved that diagonal building breaking up the avenue. Whenever I'm out of ideas I know where to look for
