I think i'll make a major city out of 2-3 tiles and some small villages.

Soon after the slums were torn down the excavators and started work and now the first phase of the Riverside Project is finished.

And on the place of the old dump i've build a nice new park.

I was born in this town....when i was little i was playing in the house backyard by the river. Later on i was sititng with the boys of my age at the bars near the beach looking at the girls. I saw this city growing and i saw it falling apart. When i decided to run for mayor the city was worse than Detroit. Crime everywere, high level of abandonment.
