Hey, this is a new city i've just started and so i thought about posting a few initial shots, so as to progress with the growth slowly and capture the moments, not much is here yet i know, but keep with me, as i'll be updating this thread as the city grows. :)

Right now it's at around 5'000 in population.

Looks great so far. Time to get some middle rise zoning, and then perhaps even some high residential!

Thanks, i'm thinking of expanding it quite a bit first before zoning higher densities, but there'll be midrises here in there ;)

Population now up to ~11'000:

Nice update, some of the midrises still look a little out of place. what I like to do is create a master planned downtown consisting of 4-5 buildings and have mass transit in place, and then I simple allow buildings around it too develop by themselves.

Do you know any of the cheats? They make the game A TON easier.

Try them.

I think it's hot keys "CTRL Z" or "CTRL X" can't remember exactly.

and then for unlimited water its "Howdryiam"
And for unlimited Power its "Fightthepower"
And all the rewards its "You don't deserve it"

Not exactly sure if those are correct, you should do a google search and see if it is.
