SimCity4 RH MP Game, revisited

[EPW]

yeah, no one is going to your city either (understandably). I think I'll remake the connection and see if that helps.

[EPW]

Ok, I reconnected it and got it working. You and mrmitchell are taking all of may commercial jobs. But little do the commuters know, there are no bus stops in Epwod.

East Central 2020

Rather than continue uncontrolled growth in to the countryside, East Central planners revitalized the downtown area. Middle class residents have begun to move in, while the Housing Authority has built four more high-rise projects to house the low income workforce, which currently makes up 75% of the population.

Key to the Plan was the construction of numerous education facilities in the downtown core, mostly on former farmland and factories. High schools, colleges, and libraries were opened.

Meanwhile the primary school system was improved while costs were cut by the opening of more schools and the elimination of school buses.

I like the (very appropriate) names of your tenements.

Finally, the area around Smiley New Town has been grown into a real subcity, with a downtown business area of its own. Resident incomes are on the rise, and demand in all sectors except high wealth residential and offices remains strong.

There's also buildings honoring Kidicious and the AECCP.

Duh. You think I want your dirty Industrial type work?

It has been another extrodinary five years in Epwood. However, with massive commercial and residential expansion have created a huge strain on the infrastructure. Most pressing was the growing traffic problems. With nearly 20,000 commuters every day coming from Y City and El Dorado, something needed to be done. So Epwood became the first city in the region to build a subway system. Although only 25% done now, it is carrying a huge volume of passengers.



And here is the save:

Blountberg Year 20 in pictures:


The west side of downtown, where most of the new commercial developments are.



Here we see east downtown, and the new mid-density developement across the river in River South.



New suburban developement near the center of the map.


Blountberg To-Do List:
-Expand low density developements into as-of unused areas of the map.
-Expand subway system to allow for more dense deveopment in downtown and River South.
-Increase commercial and residential sectors.

That was a whirlwind 5 years for Y City, though our population 'only' doubled, the last 5 years saw the first high-rises grow in a new development, and the commercial district continued to expand slowly. The most exciting development was the establishment of a new industrial sector on the hill to the north of the river exclusively for hi-tech industries.

A well established series of toll booths ensure a steady stream of income from commuters to and from other regions.

Totals:
Residential: 38,351
Commercial: 6721
Industrial: 6395

It's newyears in Mergdale, but all the lights are out. The Energy deal that had been signed with Fray Bentos was unexpectedly cut at the dawning of the new year, leaving three quarters of mergdale in a black. No other neighbours seem to have any energy to spare, either, so it seems that the mayor will be forced to take out a loan and rebuild and expand the wind generators.

[mrmitchell]

Sorry I played up to February. Just didn't notice the time (mainly because pretty much nothing happened)

Well, a lot did happen. Had plenty of high rise development; zoned up most of the residential density, added a little industry.

Rezoned over a lot of residential at the intersection of Cliffside Avenue and the new Epwood Highway to make commercial, it's now a kind of downtown.

This week's file is a RAR instead of a ZIP.

Another welcome half-point tax cut was enacted in the latter half of the five years. Demand is booming but I don't want to fill in right up to the militaryindustrial complex with residential because it will undoubtedly become a slum. I zoned a little low-density on the other side of Fort Mrmitchell but more will need to be done. Housing prices in El Dorado are ridiculous, no doubt thanks to our four elementaries, state of the art facilites at Patton High, and our city library and museum, and our world class hospital, high paying manufacturing, high tech, and defense jobs, etc...

Osweld: I think I'm just barely under the threshold for being able to offer electricity sales...I'm looking to move on up from coal anyways; if I do so by 2025 I'll be sure to build enough capacity to share.

Oh, and I built a recycling plant for your garbage too.

To do for El Dorado 2025

Slowly move old Epwood Road industrial further to the border

Slowly move militaryindustrial complex further to the border

Add to the new low density zone on the other side of the militaryindustrial complex

Zone more landfill / build waste to energy?

Upgrade power production means
