Suburban sprawl is defanatley a pain. I know what you mean about 5 star resorts right next to the ghetto. Any shops in this area have bars over the windows. Usually at least two murders per week here. And about industry, Buffalo's left too, helping fuel the decay. Two words- East Buffalo. (Of course Buffalo, thats all I ever talk about ) This city has been hit hard by urban decay. So many failed revitalization projects...

Buffalo is like a mini-version of Philadelphia.

Looks promising, hope this turns out good Original idea. The terraforming is pretty good too.

Excellent work on this CJ I see! That square with the statue is amazing! Nice work with the placement of all those lots, it really spices up your city! Its all the little things you included that make this CJ so great. Keep up the work, I hope to see more soon. Reminds me of the local Ames that closed a few years ago in my home town when the company died.

Update 8/28/05 Grand Island road layout complete! -Grand Island is approximatley the size of manhattan -Home of Fuccillo, the HUGE guy! If your interested in the history of the island, check out this website. http://isledegrande.com/gihist.htm align=baseline> Also I am accepting suggestions on what part I should make next!

Until I get more pictures, in the meantime I will do research on the Amigone funeral home in tonnawanda (sheridan drive). Would be a simple BAT project for me to work on when I am bored. This will be the last project I will be working on for a while, I am doing three at once now. http://www.amigone.com/aboutus/tonawanda.shtml This will be sort of an in-between project so I don't expect it to be completed any time too soon. Serving Western New York since 1926.

I think it looks nice and fits in with that midrise behind it. https://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/files//erie_buffalo_09.jpg align=baseline> And here is the old buffalo armoury.

Your downtown is spectacular, and those diagnols look great in it. Nice city addition!

Cross looks much better then the first time I saw it.

I also know shamefully little about the city, other then it was once one of the biggest most powerful cities in the US, until 1960 where it made probably the most tramatic turn in economy any city ever had in history. Damn St lawerence seaway!! Anyways, thanks for bumping up my thread lol. Sorry for the lack of updates, I just have such little interest in Grand island, and the odd shape of the island is giving me a headache! Let alone beaver island park's road layout.
