Can someone please make the following requests if they can? The Bicentennial Tower, Erie PA. And the Bayfront Convention Center also in Erie with the hotel attached to it (only a few hundred feet from the Bicentennial Tower).

You can take more tiles on other regions I have, I have South Hampton, New Haven, Marshall (mountain towns left I was planning to theme), Westover, Portsmyth, and Doverton. -

Fairview - New Washington

I didn't mean to post this again, as I was organizing the CJs on the forums and categorizing the CJs on the CJ section II accidentally made it a draft and had to republish it again. -
My professor said that most people will move to cities making arrival cities (shanty towns) around formal cities (the cities that are legitimate by most governments' standards). In other words most of the people of any developing nation such as India, Venezuela, Kenya etc. will be living in shanty cities for a long time until people are able to obtain enough money to have buildings instead of shanties. Plus the human population should level out at about 10,000,000,000 by 2050. In other words, the average city will not be as advanced as that for a 100 or so years. If you also account for rising ocean levels, the oceans would have swallowed any city along the coast, thus more shanty towns across the globe.

This weekend expect 2 or three updates, definitely Rockyway Ridge (I need to figure out a name for it), maybe another from Marshall (Granite Lake), and more than likely one from Hampton, North Hampton. I'm trying to pump these out when I can, but for now enjoy these two pictures of Rockyway Ridge.

Marshall - Carson

Thanks! Thank you! -
City: Carson Mayor: FourteenRocket / 14Rocket Population: 152,000 City Specialization: Trade/Tourism The city of Carson was founded as a trading outpost between the mining towns in the mountains, and the rest of the country surrounding the mountains. Although much of the trade has diminished, the city still is the main financial center of the region. Carson is the capital of Marshall today because of it's significance in the state's history. The city sits about one vertical mile above sea level making it one of the largest settlements at that height. Visitors can enjoy the shops and restaurants in Carson, and perhaps enjoy a football game, or they can go to one of the ferry terminals along the lake shore and take a ferry to the other side of the lake at the base of the mountains where they can enjoy the local scenery and fauna. Carson is the gateway between the coastline of Amoroff, and the natural world. Highway 23 passes through Carson, and makes 3 exits for the downtown area, a T interchange for the 4th Street Exit, a Diamond interchange for the 10 Street Exit, and a Partial Clover Leaf for the 15th Street Exit. Carson from the industrial district. Downtown Carson. Looking at Downtown Carson from the residential districts.

Welcome to the town of Clarkson! City: Clarkson Mayor: FourteenRocket / 14Rocket Population: 50,500 City Specialization: None Clarkson is the immediate suburb of the city of Hampton. It has a pristine beach on the oceanfront. Many of the corporate elite that run Hampton from the skyscrapers live in Clarkson. Clarkson is one of those urban sprawl suburbs that grew earlier in the 20th century having a primarily a grid system. Due to the amount of commuters in and out of Clarkson, the interstate exit to and from the city is choked with traffic. Clarkson, aside from being a suburb, has many shops and business along the main drag leading from the interstate making it a lively beach town get away as well. Hampton Blvd leading to the interstate. Many of the shops in Clarkson are on this road. At city Hall the road splits into Hampton Blvd E. and Hampton Blvd W. with many more shops. The NWRL runs through Clarkson to get to the city of New Hampton. Many residents own a piece of property on the shores of the ocean. Many people are moving into Clarkson for opportunity, with limited space many are building upwards.

Welcome to New Washington! City: New Washington Mayor: 14Rocket Population: 205,500 Capital of Republic of Amoroff City Specialization: Culture/Trade After my failure to provide garbage services to my previous city, I started a new region and am now attempting to make a new metropolitan city. Welcome to New Washington! I've take a few picture from the same corner of the city to show the progress of a town of nearly no people to a city of about 205,000 people in the limited tile space the new Sim City has. I also put recycling centers in my city to help prevent the same issue I had before. New Washington is the capital of the Republic of Amoroff, and has been since its founding 117 years ago. As of today it is one of the major economic powerhouses of the country, and certainly vital to the country's survival. Even though it may not be the perfect utopia, New Washington is safer, and cleaner than some of the surrounding towns and cities. Tourists flock to the capital by the thousands. With minor city problems evolving every few months, give or take, the city is able to handle any problem, while able to support its neighboring communities. These pictures are of the city in it's early town state. These pictures here are of rapid development in the city THis picture the city begins to grow a bit more with highrises starting to get higher. Willis Tower is there only because I had much money to space and it got me more money to use. New Washington begins to develop further and suddenly Willis Tower isn't so lonely in the sky anymore. The next wave of development is start up, not much has changed except for the roadways reaching into the forest. Residential and Commercial development quickly begins and a few buildings have already attempted to reach the sky. The second recycling center has been built and not blocks much of the view so now the camera climbs higher in the sky. Development begins to grow higher and higher. Taller buildings begin to fill in the downtown district around WIllis Tower. Tall buildings have now dwarfed the tallest building in the southwest corner of the city, the recycling center. This is what much of the city looks like from the northwest corner. The New Washington Fire Dept. is putting out the fire that a careless resident started. THe Empire State Building now adds to the city skyline. More buildings added themselves to the wouthwest corner of the city. This is New Washington as of now.

To be quite honest I was humming the Pokémon theme song when I made that.

I'll get pictures of Beaumont and Rockyway eventually... They both use the same method to make an interstate highway system.
