what a sad skyline on such a great location !

Oaronuviss · February 3rd, 2003, 05:07 PM

Why is it sad? It's not a particularly rich place... I think that's doing quite well.

Plus what's wrong with the skyline...? Reminds me of many places throughout the world...like Florida, or Australian coasts?

renell · February 3rd, 2003, 05:11 PM

its not that bad for an unknown place... 6.5

Kaneda · February 3rd, 2003, 05:14 PM

Hmm... looks pretty good, nice beach, but some of the buildings are too brown ! 6/10

SteelCity32 · February 3rd, 2003, 11:13 PM

wow, nice beaches. And the skyline is good. 8/10

SydneyDude · February 9th, 2003, 01:13 PM

reminds me very much of Australias Gold Coast- except the Gold Coast has nice buildings.

Height is lacking though

A nice beach resort style city, but with many old, concrete apartments, it needs a few more modern scrapers.
Nothing overly high aswell

6.5/10

Very nicely formed skyline- seems to peak at the centre and then gradually taper down, creates a good focal point. Individual buildings leave a fair bit to be desired though and needs some new stuff. A bit more height would also be good but probably not needed. Cheers

Beaches Height and mixed denisty
Nice height features but more range in style would be great

***SeeMacau*** · January 17th, 2004, 07:53 AM

Nice beach and skyline
8.5/10
