After another successful meeting with the North New Little Odessa Chamber of Commerce, Mr.Brown, owner and proprietor of Potomac Attire, must return back to his shop keeping duties. With two Chesapeake and Ohio tickets in his back pocket, Mr. Brown set out for Union Station.

On foot, he passes by the district court and the WNRR radio station.

His walk takes him through the city's bustling CBD.

Being a very portly man, Mr.Brown can barely lug himself up the stairs of Union Station.

Within moments of boarding, Mr.Brown is shown to his seat in the parlor car, and the train pulls out of the station.

After a quick nap, Mr.Brown realizes hes already in the country side!

However, the expansion of suburbia continues to encroach upon the most beautiful of rural scenes.

At last, Mr. Browns train finally arrives at South New Little Odessa and he readies himself for another painful walk.

However, under the circumstances, Mr. Brown decided it would be best to take the subway. At long last, Mr. Brown returned back to his business, Potomac Attire, in the south side.

Good update - I like the transit. Clayhurst University in a previous update is just excellent!

 I like the quality of your city.  The homes, stores, and transit make it very realistic.  Your pictures are great.  Will we be meeting more characters from your city?  Also, can you point out Mr. Brown's with an arrow or circle?

@haydon Thanks!

@ja/att Thanks! Really, you just have to break up the grid with geographic features like rivers and hills. Large multi block parks and embankments can really give a city character. Also, don't just provide neighborhoods with just jobs/power/health/education/water , think of their religious, transport and shopping needs. (Of course sims in game do not actually shop,  do any more movement than to work and back, and have some sort of odd church that everyone belongs to 0_o) Than you can create really realistic neighborhoods!

@Schulmanator :Thanks!

@Zulu: Don't worry, the preservation society is hard at work in New Little Odessa :)

@Benedict: Thanks man!

@Aaron Graham: Thanks!

@Monday Rain: I will be introducing new characters and will do a bit better identifying characters in screenshots with the next update. Thanks!
