t has been a long time since I last posted Molowaku Island. But, despite the long-time absence, I am happy to say that my long-running CJ (on Wordpress) is coming back to SC4D! Here's another bonus: I am opening up Chapter 2 of the region's growth since I have left behind Chapter 1 from ST. With that, I will introduce to you a new set of cities and towns that I have recently made (on the later updates), and to resume the story I left behind, I introduce you to the "resurrected" capital of Molowaku, now called Leicester.

The City of Leicester (not to be confused with the old City of Leicester in Chapter 1) was formed by a Charter, written by Richard Bowsher IV and Joseph A. Young, on February 24th, 1845, seven years before the capital of Molowaku was moved from the City of Ocean View. The Bowsher-Young Charter stated the definition of the City of Leicester, including plans for the future growth of the city and the basic structure in order to make it the "official" capital of Molowaku Island. Now, over 160 years later, Leicester has continued to play a prominent role that was left behind by Ocean View as the political and one of two economic powerhouses of Molowaku Island, with the main campus of University of Molowaku and several corporate headquarters of various local- and foreign-owned businesses continuing to provide economic strength for the Oahu Region and the nation as a whole. I invite you to click on the various pictures from my new city, and enjoy!

Molowaku is now back on SC4D, and as I have said: I do not deserve for greatness for this City Journal, but I want to create a personal and unique approach in making Molowaku Island a great SimCity 4 CJ.

It's nice, but I see you've got some problems with some textures, and it's a shame (like on the 5th image) ;)

Your MD contains surprisingly much Maxis stuff compared to other MDs here, but that is not necessarily a bad thing.
You seem to have a few textureglitches to fix, but other than that Your Md i unique because You make it, so keep it up!
