Nice to see this recreation of New York, it is working very well with all this iconic buildings that has been made for the game.

I think the way you've done the last few updates is very original, and immensely enjoyable. Cant wait to see more throwback pictures of what is possibly my favorite city in the world!

I like your interpretation of the historic New York. I have seen many NYC recreations in SC4 but this is quite uniqe.  I understand that you want to create the hisoric feel with the black and white pictures. I'd prefer some color, though. But that is just my personal taste.

Another fantastic update of a old New York. I really loved the shots where the Rockfeller center (aka GE building) stand !

Wow Ioan, are you sure you didn't time travel and take this pictures? Great stuff, I'm enjoying seeing the Big Apple back in the day!

Nice job  I was hoping to be the 1000th reply but no cigar So thats 4 more you need then...

[threestooges]

I like this black and white approach to presenting New York. I also hadn't realized so many specific buildings had been reproduced (I think this is the first I've seen the Macy's). I like the progression through time, and it should be interesting to watch it continue. Out of curiosity, where did you find your streetcar automata? It may just be that it's black and white, but I don't think I've seen that one before either.
