Here's my town in a kinda blueprint-y effect layout. It's home to 32,000 people who are extremely overeducated for their jobs because of very low demand for offices. I used many traffic circles, and have learned more about them, including their limitations. That really ugly looking interchange area in the East is a remnant of a traffic circle gone supernova that turned into something of a High Five. There is almost no traffic in the city. My former city managed to hit 50,000 people but there was absolutely nothing but standard road sizes and traffic from hell that literally never moved. I am very proud of this one.

I have a dam and 2 solar plants. I had originally tried to put a dam on the southern river from "Lake Leed" but I think I placed it directly ontop of a water spawner because the water for some reason created an insane current over the dam in the wrong direction. When I removed it, water went 50 stories in the air and tsunami-ed over my town. I try and add trees especially among major roads, and some of them are quite pretty. About 2,000 of my cims take my convoluted-over-time metro system and the only intercity connections other than the road I have is a standard cargo station which you can spot easily along one of my overbuilt highway spurs.

I look forward to it growing and I am proud it managed to survive without major problems the shift to high-density business and residential.

I suppose the skyline is a bit of an overkill for my humble 40k population:D Don't understand why they don't bleed my budget dry either... Those things are seriously expensive, though they appear to generate revenue somehow too. Now, if only I could fill that entire island with those:rolleyes:

Hello everyone,

Here is my little contribution to this topic :)
My budget is slightly in the red because I lowered the taxes to 5% for inhabitants and 10% for industry to get the damn achievement^^.
Enjoy the view.

.
.

1. Some red spot in the traffic, but no traffic jam at all:


2. A satelite view of the city. Don't worry for the few death corps awaiting, I got a power shortage and I had a few death at the same time that the city could not handle because of the sewage not working anymore ( no electricity ). Now all is back to normal and working perfectly:


3. The land value ( heavily boosted by the Eden project ):


4. The resources of the city:


5. A view of the downtown:


.

That's it for now ^^.

Here are some from my first true city. Population is about 27-30k, keeps going up and down.


Rail line distributions into the city. This has been reworked a few times since this was taken.

View into downtown Oakland with the stadium as the focal point

A true "Skyline" view of downtown from a neighborhood in Old Oakland.

A closer view on the "rail avenue. Which side of the tracks do you want to be on?

I'll hopefully post some better ones soon.

All my cities look like stinky shitholes when I am comparing it to the cities here posted .....

Well, I for one is shamelessly in love with my own creation, so I'm just gonna post some more :p

Now that I have established Rockwall's rockhard skyline I really feel ready to start developing the outskirts/suburbs a bit more, but the game does not agree with me. It only wants commercial and offices by insurmountable amounts. Very annoying... I thought these massive unique buildings were supposed to hire people by the thousands (some of them anyway)? Aren't they?! Are they just eye-candy or what?

Some hillside development: An observatory and a lookout point. It's cool that civs actually head up there :)
