one more

this is what i need to fill in with buildings.

so i can start another grid on the South Side of the Ekana Canal. more than likely i'll start the other side before i fill in all of this as well as beachside, but i just thought i'd show you all the massive size this city will be.

If you complete this city and all that, you have my vote for the greatest city ever made on SSP Cityscape. That is going to be one huge city. The new buildings are great. Keep up on it and don't stop!!!!!!!!!!!

currently this is the tallest building. the building is 1,257 feet to the tip of the tallest antenna. However, it is only tallest by the antennas. The Titan Building is taller to the roof, which is in the block behind this one.

it is called The Anizari World Plaza. more specificly, the tallest building in that plaza is 200 Anizari World Plaza, the one on the right with the antenna as you can see the taller one.

Anizari, Corp. (OtEx: ANZ) is an electronic company based in Tokyo, Japan. they make TVs, steroes, video game consoles, and lots of other electronics. they are also a holding corp owning various other companies.

it may take a while, but this is an ongoing pretty much neverending project so it will all be filled eventually. i'm sure some times i won't be working on the city as often as i am now. it's a natural tendency of people to get bored if they do the same thing over and over

right now it's fun though. but overall i'll always be working on it somewhat. thanks for the comment.

The Adams-Onis Bridge has road texture now! Now, I can make a cool traffic scene on it, or maybe an accident..?

a new, actually Old lighthouse started. this should be considered the rough draft. or maybe not, it depends!

well anyways, it was built by the Spanish around 1812. don't mind that light blue all over the background. i believe it was the fog messing up when i exported the image.

and here is some work on did to the city grid. no longer just basic rectangular blocks. though this is the only different one so far, expect more in the future. possibly those angled roads will go all the way across?

Peter · #**190** Posted **Jun 28, 2007, 3:28 AM**

and who can guess what this is going to be?

if no one can guess, i'll give a hint. if no one can still guess, i'll just write what it is.

rbowk · #**192** Posted **Jun 28, 2007, 5:40 AM**

Mocholate · #**193** Posted **Jun 28, 2007, 11:18 AM**

The roads look really good , the textures must have taken a while to do?

Dac150 · #**194** Posted **Jun 28, 2007, 4:02 PM**

A storm or weather doppler?

CGII · #**195** Posted **Jun 28, 2007, 4:13 PM**

It's a windmill, fools.

you are correct!

i wish i had a prize for you, sorry

it's a wind turbine built by Enibrut Power, Co. and of course not finished yet. it is just one of many to come in this wind farm owned by the Southern Light and Power, Co. this is SLP's first step to making the world a safer place to live

it's an offshore wind farm and I guess that's where they are very effective because of lots of wind. they really exist

the Southern Light and Power Company's wind farm is up and running! it's called the Otahita Offshore Wind Power Plant . they use the Enibrut 2.5 MW wind turbine and they give electricity to several thousand homes in the beachside communities, mostly in Sandy Pines and Otahita Beach.

the fog messed up again. it started doing this recently. maybe just too much fog?

probably another update tonight.

That was a cool idea, and you made them really fast. I'm telling you, you keep this up, it will be the greatest SSP cityscape cities ever made!
