There's not a lot of stuff from Hampton Roads available for SC4 except for the few things that Goob has created. I was just wondering, would anyone be willing to make a few of the buildings in Downtown Norfolk? We have quite a few which would really help fill out a SC4 skyline. Here are some in particular:

Bank of America Center: http://www.emporis.com/application/?nav=building&lng=3&id=bankofamericacenter-norfolk-va-usa
(2nd tallest building in Norfolk, the first of the big skyscrapers. State of the art at time of build.)

World Trade Center: http://www.emporis.com/application/?nav=building&lng=3&id=worldtradecenter-norfolk-va-usa
(This building was considered "world-class" when built in 1987. Helped jumpstart the revival of Downtown Norfolk.)

Dominion Center: http://www.emporis.com/application/?nav=building&lng=3&id=dominiontower-norfolk-va-usa
(Tallest building in Norfolk)

150 West Main St.: http://www.emporis.com/application/?nav=building&lng=3&id=150westmainstreet-norfolk-va-usa
(One of our newest additions to the waterfront skyline, looks sleek)

Arnold B. Mckinnon Building: http://www.emporis.com/application/?nav=building&lng=3&id=norfolksoustreetrntower-norfolk-va-usa
(Perhaps the most recognizable building downtown. A window washer's worst nightmare!)

500 East Main St: http://www.emporis.com/application/?nav=building&lng=3&id=500eastmainstreet-norfolk-va-usa
(Formerly occupied my Crestar Bank)

555 East Main St: http://www.emporis.com/application/?nav=building&lng=3&id=555eastmainstreet-norfolk-va-usa
(Originally the First Virginia Bank Tower)

Hague Towers: http://www.emporis.com/application/?nav=building&lng=3&id=haguetowers-norfolk-va-usa
(Residential highrise, pretty reknowned throughout the city. My grandma once had a room here years ago!)

Main Street Tower: http://www.emporis.com/application/?nav=building&lng=3&id=mainstreettower-norfolk-va-usa
(Another very unique building across from the Bank of America center. MY MOM WORKS HERE!)

Norfolk City Hall: http://www.emporis.com/application/?nav=building&lng=3&id=norfolkcityhall-norfolk-va-usa
(Yep, our city hall is a highrise! It would be a wonderful reward and incentive for larger cities!)

School Administration Bldg: http://www.emporis.com/application/?nav=building&lng=3&id=schooladministrationbuilding-norfolk-va-usa
(Also houses the city courthouse and prison! Another neat reward!)

AT&T Bldg: http://www.emporis.com/application/?nav=building&lng=3&id=attbuilding-norfolk-va-usa
(I always thought this one was neat.)

Norfolk Plaza Hotel: http://www.emporis.com/application/?nav=building&lng=3&id=radissonhotelnorfolk-norfolk-va-usa
(Ahhh, the ol' golden triangle. Fallen on hard times recently.)

All of these buildings would be a good fit for any downtown section!


I love Simcity 4!
