Strechnitz

Wonderful update Nova!

The mosaics are very impressive and he 90's mistake is a nice depiction of state politics! :thumbsup:

Excellent update here, you've managed to combine European and Asian elements really well. Just two things that irk me a little but don't really distract from the quality of the pictures. First the sidewalks I don't think fit very well. And perhaps one way streets instead of two two ways?

Anyway looking forward to more.

Great work there. I really love that night shot with the huge tower. I don't see the mistake though.. haha  :satisfied:

very nice...I've always wanted to do something with the Asian material myself, but I've never gotten around to it. I like what you've done so far, can't wait to see more of your creative genius.

BoKriF Merci ! Though the 90s Mistake was a nice way to introduce Asian Urban Planning .... of the past( who's thinking of Shanghai or Beijin.... not me  :D)

Wow...you combine Asian and European buildings really well here!  And I love those strip-plazas...they look awesome!  Heh heh...you took a bit more time with that cathedral in your town than I did in mine (I just plopped it in the first block I found that would fit it...%wrd).

One thing, though...some of your skyscrapers appear to come out of nowhere; nice mid-sized buildingsSKYSCRAPERnice mid-sized buildings, you know?   Just something I noticed...

I like what's going on in here, though :thumbsup:!  I'll try and come around more often... ;)

You're doing some splendid work here, my friend! While I was saddened by the closing of Nova Vesfalo, I must say that I'm definitely enjoying this! I also apologize for not commenting sooner, but I'm all caught up and ready to follow along!

Also, with this post, I'll be moving you in to the "Ones to Watch." Congratulations!

Welcome back to Recently Published, nova vesfalo.  $%Grinno$%

Anyways, now to my comment.  I like your MD a lot. Each picture tells its own, unique story, something I love to see.  You ave a great combination of old world and modern architecture in your city, which does an excellent job replicating a city in real life. 

Looking forward to more,

Today we didn't go far awat from "Promenade Saint George", just on the banks, a part of one of the longest boulevard of Tientsin: Boulevard Lafayette. There's it "Quai de Nemours" '(Nemours' Banks).

Nemours' Banks is an important point on Tientsin public transportation map, here , most of the subway, buses, tramway's lines stop and The Saint George Railway Station, the biggest one is just metter away . During Rush hours it's quite a dangerous place !



"Quai de Nemours" are directly connected to the "Promenade Saint George" (the prespective of the cathedral); The Gates are callled Napoleon Gates, it came from the wall of the old fort, which has been destroyed to create the "New Town"


The 90s Mistake mistaking  the District ?


Nemours's Bank is quite a busy place.


Nemours' Banks and a little overview of Bayart-South, an old "getho" area, complety destroyed by japanese during WWII. After the War, the area became one of the First Skycraper Nest in Tientsin.



and Tientsin's wiki is under construction ....
