Show us your Downtowns & CBD's!

[bwatterud]

Thanks for the link, but that's not the one I was talking about.  I was talking about the one that's contained in a mid/high-rise.  Now that I've looked at it I think it might be another one of Vlakhaas's placed next to a mid/high-rise, but I still want to be sure. 

EDIT-Okay, it is. 

[U3D]

Well here's mine, its a kinda of commercial/residental/midrise/highrise mix.....

Mike: How on EARTH did you get the PanPacific Buildin' in your city?!?  I mean, I've had a zone in my downtown at 6x6 grid tiles for 'bout 100 Simyears it seems, and all I get are small stuff! How in heck did YOU do it?!? And please, tell me ya didn't plop it, please... (J/K, your downtown looks fantastic! I'm just envious, a bit... )

Anyway, these are some sweet downtowns, alright. When I get all the kinks out of mine, I'll DEFINITELY post some pics here. Keep up the great work there, guys!

Mike: How on EARTH did you get the PanPacific Buildin' in your city?!?

When you download the bats, you get a growable and a plopable version. You can just go into the landmarks menu and find it in there and plop it.

I am not sure where to put this.  I think it could be a downtown, but it's really more of an "old town".  It's certainly not towering glass boxes or anything.  I should also note, there are more traditional CBDs in this city and region.

Here is a wider shot of part of the CBD area.  It spreads over into the adjacent cities, so it is somewhat cut off.

U3D, very nice picture.  A small downtown core, but one none the less.

iamgoingoteatyou, I love that picture.  How you made it dark and included a very heavily driven road and full height buildings with a very nice back drop.  This my friend is a perfect picture in my opinion.

Mikeaut1, Now that's a very dense downtown picture.  Everyting looks very uniform and realistic.  I like it, another very near perfect picture.

Mulefisk, Very cool 3d effect.

eljacko, two very nice pictures, great work.


Great thread, if I haven't said it before.

[SIMMANIA]

Mulefisk: OMG ! This rocks a lot ! Man, outstanding, I almost thought you said real about the plugin thing, seriously well done, and nice Downtown. How you did that, I mean, wich photoshop tricks you used.... ? 

[Zaphod]

haha mulefisk that's awesome

hey iamgoingtoeatyou, did you stick the ads on that tall building to the right, or does it normally do that?

[bat]

Great pictures of your downtown, eljacko!
