(Sorry about the stupid name. You'll see. )

Anyways... These past few years, Whitevale's Down Town area has been going through some major upgrades. New buildings were rising constantly and lots of new jobs were being created. In 1935, due to ever increasing traffic, 2 new traffic light sets as well as turning lanes were installed on the 2 busiest streets in Whitevale. (That's where the name came from.)

In 1937, a new post office was built in town. Hundreds of people can be seen celebrating the grand opening.

New buildings continued to rise all the time. These are the 2 newest buildings in Down Town Whitevale.

As you've seen, Whitevale's downtown has been expanding a lot. But that's just one part of whats been happening in the soon-to-be city.

New residential areas where being built all around Whitevale.

Whitevale was expanding at such a high rate that it was running out of room to grow anymore. But a man named Ugene was kind enough to sell his land to the town for 3000 dollars. He then moved out of town and now owns a new farm.

Development started a few months later. A year after the construction began, a new neighborhood was complete.

Large companies across North America realized that Whitevale would be an ideal spot to build factories and plants because of it's increasing demand for jobs. Many new factories were built in recent years.

On August 19th 1939, Whitevale's 50th anniversary was celebrated with fireworks, music and 2 tons of cake.

(That's where the picture of the firework came from.)

This is a picture of Whitevale in 1939 as it reached a population of more that 5000 people.

Well That's it for now.

Hi again. I'm glad you appreciated my comment. I meant it! I'd rate this CJ 5/5 again, hands-down. I like I'm being told a story from someone whose lived in the town for years. The water-ways near the factories have some nice detail to them. Love the overhead shot of the recent developments too---but wow, that is a LOT of cake!

I cant wait till Whitevale hits 25k and starts getting some midrise development! This has been an excellent CJ and i am looking foward to future updates! I look up to this CJ the most right now and its saddening how updates are pretty slow here :C

Next to that industrial zone, How about building an airport by starting with a small airfield and as when the city grows, the airport grows into a huge international airport. When building this, I suggest you use custom airport pieces. I hope I get to see the airport so the city can grow a bit more faster. Hope to see more of the city of Whitvale.

Also, a harbor and a seaport next to industrial buildings will get the city going but, put the airport north of the industrial buildings.
