The variation of different styles, shapes and heights of the buildings is pretty extreme. I think it takes a bit of the realism.

Anyway my favorite so far is the tall and slender glass coated building right next to the courthouse. I also like the tall art deco tower very much. Its shape kind of reminds of the Quigley Insurance Building from the old Sim City 3000. I don't know if anyone else is familiar with that.

Thanks for the comment.

I know what you mean but I think it will get better once a larger area is built upon. Right now it looks weird when you have all the massive buildings in an area of 400*300 m^2.

I think you should lower the height of that tower/ building thing. It looks very nice but I think it's too tall from the other buildings.

Nice!

^^ I don't think it's too tall. It's 550m high and there are towers now being built which are that tall.

I'm going away now for 2 weeks but I will probably build more stuff when I get back.

Here is what I plan to do.




I'd like to have a big park going around like shown below. I might also have a small park on a plot or two in the middle.
