Woodruff Part 2

By VMIUJcadet09,

We continue our tour of Woodruff by visiting the Woodruff Country Club, which plays host to minor PGA events on the way from Augusta, GA; which hosts the Masters Tournament. This CC is surrounded by multi-million dollar homes and a very prestigious high school. This is the most expensive part of Woodruff New Town. As we drive north, over I-85, we come across the Greenville County Mormon Temple, which is one of the largest Mormon temples in the Greenvile metro area, and is an exact replica of the Mormon...

Woodruff!

By VMIUJcadet09,

Good Evening Everyone! After several days away from updating my CJ, I will introduce you to the city of Woodruff. A smallish city east of Greenville proper and just south of Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport. The pop. is roughly 63000 with an average income of $45,000; making it a middle income area of the Greenville metro area; and is literally halfway between Greenville and Spartanburg along I-85. This area is known primarily for extensive manufacturing and industrial parks, as well as a new...

Good Afternoon Everyone, Here is a third installment in the Greenville tour, these next several images will showcase some misc. pictures, as well as some of the horrendous traffic you can experience in Gvl. These first two pictures show some of the awful traffic that is experienced on a daily basis in the Greenville-Spartanburg metro area: The first pic shows rush-hour traffic on Pelham Road, a major thouroughfare in Greenville. The second pic shows the stack interchange at I-85 and I-385, which is a loop...

Hi again! Here is the 2nd part in a multi-section tour of Greenville. Hope you enjoy this update! Here is the Aquarium of the Upstate, one of the largest aquariums in the entire state, stocked with fish and other aquatic life from all over the world! Just south of the aquarium is South Carolina Polytechnic University, or SCTech; modelled after Virginia Tech and one of the most popular universities in SC; and a partner in automotive technology with Clemson University, BMW, and IBM. As we drive further east,...

Good Evening Everyone, Now for a major change of pace from Augusta, we travel approx. 110 miles to the north to Greenville, SC; the largest city in the Upstate of South Carolina. My version of the real city is a metro area of approx. 1.4 million people, with a very developed CBD, much like Atlanta or Charlotte (esp since I really like the buildings in both cities). This region has 3 airports, 2 regional, and 1 large international airport. There are numerous high-rises in Greenville and some scattered...

Hi again! As promised, here are two additional images, the first one is Augusta's CBD, which features several mid-rise/high-rise towers, lots of shops and places to get a bite; as well as a train station, civic buildings, and residential buildings. Also, just south of the CBD, there is a large central market where people from all over the CSRA (Central Savannah River Area) come for fresh produce, meat, fish, and of course, boiled peanuts! Imagery of the market will come in following updates, so stay tuned!...

Hello everyone! Now for what everyone has been waiting for....close up images of Southern Cities. I will first introduce you to Augusta; as with all my cities, these are just my recreations of them and not necessarily representative of real life. First up are several shots of the Summerville district of Augusta: This is the main street through part of Summerville, with shopping, a school, and a police station, as well as numerous residences. Here is the flower garden in Summerville, rather large and a...
