k50dude: Thanks for your comment and fidelity! I think that the building you're saying it is the one I call Hong Kong Condominiums. it is on the STEX but I can't remember its name. Try searching for "Hong Kong" and it will appear.
Simsamerica (Will): Thanks for your comment! You will find lots of inspirational CJ's around here...

This is an special entry. I want to show all what Alarconia has to offer for the next Summer Simlympics. I haven't registered yet at Simsports, because I'm not sure I have a decent city to do a bid for the Simlympics so first I would appreciate some feedback. About what to do with that piece of island that lacked, I've made a hiatus on its development but the Simlympic zone has been discarted now because I've had a better idea. You'll see.

It is based on Alarconia's flag, the one you can see in the entry "Alarconia Data from CIA World Factbook" but I've painted the bars as they were skyscrapers and the blue strip as the sea...
