Love the Island ideas and The Staunton Merchandise Mart is a good addition to the city

Yes, almost every picture I touch from Staunton to Myspace I contrast the hell out of it

This picture was supposed to be much bigger, anyone know a place that hosts huge pictures?

Yeah, all the colors are amazing. But idk, everything is kind of amazing at this moment. But it looks way less than NY now. Great job.

I just took the time to scan that entire picture, and I find it amazing how right down to the trees you put that city together. I really hope you advertise Staunton to the public because it can land you a career somewhere that relates.

Forget Liberty City in GTA IV, Staunton blows it away by ten miles.

Another one for the hell of it This time showing Staunton looking north, in my opinion the best view of the skyline.

I've finished the Financial Center Marina, and the long park next to the Convention Center, I still have no idea what to name the Financial Center - Collins Center - Covention Center Towers - Convention Center. Anyone got an ideas?



The same view about a year ago.

Staunton easily blows everything else away in terms of sheer detail and scope. This is the most amazing city I've ever seen built.

Fort Staunton City, Staunton Gardens, Westly Center, Jersey Plaza. take your pick.

Holy Hell...

I would like it if the chicago style resis could come back to the left of the financial center. The ones i the old shot. they are very realistic and detailed.

Can we have some none skylines shots? like from the waterfront and stuff?

I wish there was a way to play our cities in a video game like an fps or racing. Staunton would be so fun to play in.

Despite it being summer, progess has been slow.

I wanna start on Midtown, I've been thinking about plans for Jefferson. But I promised myself I wouldnt move on until I passed the Jefferson Bridge, so I still got a few more blocks of lowrises until I skip to Jefferson.



Probably one of Downtown's last major skyscrapers before I start on Jefferson or Midtown: The Heartland Plaza, two large office buildings and a Springdale Hotel, built in the 1960's.



Obviously based off of the original Southland Plaza in Dallas.



More soon!
