  1. Entry 62 -- Brooklyn, The Beginning

    mrsmartman commented on The British Sausage's City Journal Entry in My SC4 CJ Scrapbook

    The physical conditions of housing stocks vary across neighbourhoods. For example, the brownstones in Brooklyn Heights near Downtown Brooklyn are more valuable than the tenements in Harlem of Upper Manhattan. The better residential apartments in Manhattan are generally newer art deco buildings like those in Upper East Side as most of the remaining older buildings in Manhattan are tenements. Fewer old buildings are demolished in urban rewewal projects in Brooklyn.

    The housing stocks in Brooklyn are better preserved than those in Manhattan. Great work!

    The original New York Times Building really stands out. It would be great to see the Statue of Liberty overlooking New York Harbour.

    Project housing is a prominent feature of New York City. You have not forgotten the industrial lofts of Garment District.

    New York is one of the most interesting cities to recreate in SimCity 4 with many art deco skyscrapers. Your recreation, especially the handling of diagonal streets and buildings, is remarkable.
