i added the Fifth Third tower in its correct spot there was no Pittsburgh version of this tower so i used the only version i could find and it was from Louisville, kentucky. the actual building does not look like this its called gulf tower but regardless adding a fifth third tower in its correct spot has increased the realism plus this building provides jobs.

Mellon Green

By Necropolis,

Mellon Green Is Finished i rotated the Mellon Bank Tower so that the parking Garage is now facing the corect side. as you can see the green trees that are part of meelon bank building are supposed to be a park of mellon green park owned by the mellon tower. this Park is Nicknamed Steel Plaza and has a subway station here in the park named that.

In this Picture it shows a graph of the Usage of mass transit in the Downtown of Pittsburgh. the simulation of downtown is about 230 years old but the usage of mass transit is much shorter in history perhaps 200 years or less. the Usage of Mass transit is now at a all time high. only on this city tile in the region can you find Subway or elevated rail. but the rail system does go off map but stops using these types and then is called Passenger rail. im still tweaking the Bus system im trying to add more...
