I'm glad you bumped this because I missed the last update I like the little maps--simple but get the point across and good for an overview and/or reminder of the region. And I know where the stadium is.

A great presentation on a lower wealth area and some of the attempts being made to remedy the issues.

I missed it before, but I really enjoyed the information and history (and of course the maps ) of the Mainsborough Metro. The electrified lines look great both through the country and in town--haven't had much opportunity to try them out for myself, but now I really want to. Heck, I want to build my own complex, intertwined rail system every time I visit here

I never ever EVER get tired of looking at your regional transport views. They absolutely blow me away every time!

I glued my feet to a wall and looked at the mosaic that way. The effect is relatively the same. In a moment of seriousness, the port is actually quite nice.

Definitely you've done an excellent job integrating the industrial areas into the farmland (I've said in other people's CJ's that that's my favorite combination to see.) I especially like the factory on the canal, with farm fields directly adjacent to the canal. Also, you've placed your farms together in such a way that we could assume that it's just one big farm with several different crops, and not just distinctly separate farms. I don't know what your actual intention was, but that's the impression I'm getting from some of them. Either way, they look amazing.

Nice job with the area around the mayor's house. It took me quite a while to figure out how to properly use PEG's waterfront stuff.

Ah yes, the ever-present current trend of naming roads after local politicians (I'm guessing that's who Birnen is).

Those pictures are just great snippets of aesthetic pleasure, pure and simple!

The Official 2005 Golden Llama Awards Discussion

I'm discovering this thread a bit late, but thanks to all those who nominated my CJ for Best City Journal and Best Planning, especially the latter category where apparently I received enough nominations to get an Hono(u)rable Mention. I do the CJ mainly for myself, with all the tours and roads signs that satisfy my roadgeek urges, but I am greatly appreciative of my loyal followers and anyone else who is interested by it. I have no plans to stop with this particular CJ any time soon, so look for many new things to come to the Downingsford Metropolitan Statistical Area in the coming months. -

I prefer the daily paper towel myself. Those particular windmills are about my only source of power anymore.

Wow.... that's.... really all I can think to say.... I would say more, but nothing I can say could express how impressive that is.

I thought someone had just randomly bumped this thread, but turns out you're updating again! It's always nice to see you around, however sporadically you may have time for it. Those region views are an impressive reminder of your skills with this game, and I look forward to seeing further developments.

I like the setup of that industrial park, as well as the limited access highway that runs through there.

Now I've got a transit hub! Excellent! Nice layout to start, and that greenway concept is so topical because of all the cities these days that are building their new freeways as such. Learning from the mistakes of the 1950's.

Hey Bernhard, several nice pictures in that set, but I really like the last one, the small center of Fleggingen, surrounded by bits of agriculture, and a little local rail line just of the main street. That terminus gives the perfect feel here. And the obligatory church at the town center.
-
Ah, yes, all the familiar qualities that I don't like about new urbanism... Seriously, though, it all looks great, especially the tram line along the red brick, and nice to see lots of parking at the transit hub. A transit village is being planned near where I live and I don't think it's been received too favorably so far. I guess residents in the Eureka vicinity have a better opinion of it.
