A letter from the Mayors desk,
This is a Mayor Diary based on a real county in Maine but all towns are mostly fictitious. Although It is fictitious I am trying to keep a realistic region. I am not from Maine, or the US for that matter, so if at any point you find it necessary to criticize my region for its realism i will more than happy to listen.
Thank you,
and enjoy.
Here are some Introduction pictures to let you get a feel for Cumberland County.

My next update will go more in depth into Cumberland County
Hope to see you next time!!
I like that house. It's very pastel and peaceful seeming. A bit over shaded from trees in the RL pic, but still.
A nice start so far. I would recommend a slope mod though, because I don't even think the streetcars in San Francisco could make it up the ramp onto that bridge!
Also just a thought, but Maines location made it the main delta for the glaciers of the last ice age. Most of Maine is mud and clay as opposed to granite or sedimentary stone. You won't find many big boulders there. If you don't have the mayor menu flora set (I actually don't know who made it), it includes a few different items that would be useful, such as ploppable marches and cattails.
thanks mate... About the rocks. there is only really rocks along my coasts and On this particular Set of Rapids. I took into account that maine is not really that rocky.. just the coast
ps.. i do have a bridge height mod but i custum made the slope of the bridge.. a bit overboard now that you mention it. I willl intend to fix it
Thanks.
The bridge height mod lets you have bridges without slopes. A slope mod makes it so your roads streets rails and highways can't ascend to quickly... So you could make your bridge that height, and then drag the roads down each side and have them slowly climb up to the height of the bridge instead of creating sheer cliffs.

I thought I would post some info about the region.
The City of Weymouth, is located in the state of Maine in the USA. It forms part of Cumberland County district 3.
It was established in 1642 as a port from England for settlers to arrive and also to deliver goods. Since then the region has been known for its fishing, craft brewries, and Ship building.
EDIT: Merged double posts. See MD Rules for explanations. Thanks! - Dustin (thundercrack83)

Hi Everybody!
This is my second update in as many days!!! That was fast!
Well This update is all about the main city in my region, Weymouth. Weymouth is a very small, peacefull cuty on the mouth of the Androscoggin River and the head of Casco bay. It has A University, Museams, Schools, two Stadiums, a passenger rail station, and a freight rail station. The highlights of its waterfront are the fishing peirs, marinas, Androscoggin Dock the Winchester Mill, The Morse's Tea building(One of the oldest buildings in Maine), St. George Cathedral, Lenster Primary School, and The Town Hall Building.
A Golf course is under construction and so are two Freeways, outside the city. You will see all of that in later updates!! so keep your eyes peeled and for know enjoy the sites in one of americas oldest cities.
Pictured Below is part of downtown. Sicnificant site include The Morse's tea Building(Top Left), Lenster Primary School(Right), and The Town Hall Building(Botton with the clocktower!).

Well this is the town of Wiscasset, Maine. The town lies just east of Weymouth and west of the City Of Bath(Next update). It is connected to the two adjecent cites by Us Route 1 and rail lines. It is a pleasent town that started as a fishing and port town and developed into a nice place to go and relax, do a little shopping on the main streets, or go sailing for the day on the Wiscasset Bay.
Here it is and enjoy the pleasant views!
This is downtown Wiscasset. The main street you see in the picture is Wiscasset Street. It stretches from Venosta north along the bay. Ther are mostly Hardware stores, clothing, and Antique stores alont the street.

Nexis4Jersey -- Thanks m8! i already am using the slope mod ..but for some reason i could not get that section of Highway to get a realistic slope.
Tomas Neto -- Glad you like it!
Battlecat -- They really are neat homes eh? i like 'em
Very good work! I love the way you're cities look pure eyecandy.
Given that I lived in New England for 4 years, I can say from experience that your towns live up to the feel of the those in the area. Very good job.
Wow, great work!!! Very nice pictures!!! &apls &apls

moin evertonforever1,
looks really good ... :thumbsup:
... i'm curious abaut your next update!
b_schlurf
I really like the layout you have, especially in the 1st pic. And I like the diagonal Street
A few suggestions,
1. It would be nice if the pics were jpegs instead of png's, which have slower loading times.
2. In your 7th picture, how exactly does the truck leave the building? ('exit only') :D
Nice start!
Hi everybody,
This is a teaser for an area in Weymouth being planned. Due to an influx of demand for residential in the area, a new suburb is planned.

YAY! peeople Care!!!
danielcote - Thanks m8... i try to make them as real as posible.
nedalezz - Thanks and it means alot that i am currently following the Maine "feel"
Tomas Neto - Thanks! :thumbsup:
Earth quake - Thanks, Bath probably took me the longest to plan the highway and rail so it was realistic to the "Actual" town of Bath, Maine. Hence the shipbuilding yards and steelworking warehouses.
beutelschlurf - Tahnks , and there WILL be more!!!
bob56 - Yes i did realize that after i had posted the exit has No "Exit"
Also i have no idea what and how to .png? hehe &mmm

Good plan
I hope you can make something of that

Next update will most likily be Freeport, a town that is located in between Portland and Weymouth.
Till next time, Peace
Nice update! I really like the apartments and the park trails around them. However, I'd suggest you to turn off the grid before taking pictures and to remove the signs.
Can't wait for more! :thumbsup:
nice update. i like the neighbourhood planning you do. i also like the repetition of the townhome/3 story walkups, very realistic. i agree about pressing 'g' to remove the grid
but i dont mind seeing the signs as it gives an idea of where your neighbourhoods are in relation to each other. my suggestion would be to put a bit of space between the
houses and railroad tracks, that would be quite noisy. but in the end, its your md, do want you want. :)
Very nice city. Just a thing, remove the grid before to take photos ;)
Guillaume :thumbsup:
Very nice update my friend!!! :thumbsup:
I love your waterfronts and the nice woodsy feel of your cities. Very nicely done. :thumbsup: :)
