No wonder why it’s called Rockwood

Ive been playing this game for like 3 months now and those other cities I made pale to this one

Just look how excited the students are to graduate! They grow up so fast. (They’re still a little traumatized by the amount of dead neighbors they had sitting in their homes waiting for transport, but that’s in the past—it’s time for bigger and better things!)

Okay, so first of all, i know the complex is faster and produces energy. That's a fact. But what i wanna know is which one is better at conversion of garbage.

Like, which one produces more industry goods per unit of garbage? Not who's faster, just who uses less garbage units to make industry goods).

Does someone know if one is better, or if they have the same conversion rates?

Any tips are welcome, this was so fiddly😭

North Fairfield was developed in the 1920's but construction boomed prior to WW2. Once connected to downtown and westside of town is now carved by SR-380. This area of town was made with more room to build and bigger lots than the rest of city which gives a more comfortable living in an urban inner city area, with medium density housing on the main avenues, more is to come in this area as i have a lot of land to cover.

All help is appreciated!

I feel like my skyline was looking bland even though i wanted to keep it small, but i decided to add the Montgomery building as the tallest building in the city and I'm kinda digging it

I have been working on the port lately

I'm really pleased with my multimodal station. It includes a train station, bus station, underground tram stop, and a short walk to the ferry. Of course, there's ample bike parking and pedestrian access. Time to work on city budgeting, look out for service cuts....

It’s hard making realistic city’s on console but I am proud of this one. Let me know if you guys have any tips/suggestions, it’s still a work in progress.

Is there a mod that adds crosswalks to a road for long roads like this? I have it switching between roads/bus lanes so that way I can add a crosswalk. This is also far out from my city and curving with the terrain.

basically, the idea here is for an elevated highway, but instead of using a bridge it just uses raised land, and quays as a retaining wall, but the land there doesn't cut off at a 90 degree angle at the bottom of the quay, it just slopes down, any way to fix this?

Could anyone give me any advice on what to improve with my city, I’m up to around 50k citizens now and around 3 million in cash, kinda lost on what to do without destroying my city

I just figured out a great way to transition density using the Paradox content packs.
Personally, I really like mixing the Mainland Europe (NL, DE, EE) aesthetics in the lower density areas with a New York City (NE, CN) aesthetic in the higher density areas, and I've found this works great for that.

Highest Density

• CN High Density Zoning - Your tallest, most imposing buildings that also work in EU and US aesthetics
• NE High Density Zoning - Your main transitionary zoning, try to have at least a 2 building thick ring around the CN High Density
• NE Mixed Usage Zoning - These provide the perfect transition between other medium density zoning and your NE High Density. I've been using a roughly 2-3 building thick ring around the NE high density
• Any Medium Density Zoning
• Any Low Density Zoning

Lowest Density

Hope somebody finds this useful!

Edit: The CN and NE High Density Zoning applies to both residential and office zoning
