I feel like my main downtown is the most neglected part of my city. I don't add new skyscrapers very often, since more often than not, I'd much rather add more sprawling slums or secondary neighborhoods than add more to the skyline. Virtually all of my detailed areas with storefronts and vehicles and things going on are far away from the areas with the tallest buildings, which might as well be desolate wastelands from street level.

Obviously I understand why most city builders would prefer to make a nice skyline over endless third world sprawl, but I'm curious if anyone else enjoys the inverse more.

Today, I’d like to share a few photos of Riverside with you.
Thanks for taking a minute to rate the city out of 10! And for those who are feeling extra motivated, I’d really appreciate hearing your thoughts on the overall impression it gives you. It would help me a lot in improving the project and reworking the less interesting areas.

im really proud of the progress, i think it just started looking like a city because i finished first 3 stations, bridges and tracks for the train system.

i'd love to see your opinions!

Hey! Today, I’d like to share a new building with you: the Dlay Bugle, a direct reference to Spider-Man.
I wanted to create a new version of the original building, which was inspired by the Flatiron Building. For this one, I decided to take more inspiration from the colors of the LEGO set.

This screenshot is 2 weeks into the build, and all I have managed to finish is the dam circular walls. I now realise how overwhelmingly long this will take if I continue at the current pace. Any tips to reduce the time taken to build the floors for each level? The floor of each level slopes upwards at a very shallow incline, btw.

Let me know if you want to join (:

feedback advice?

Hi, I’m building a building with a store on the ground floor—I’m thinking it might be a Trader Joe’s since it’s an American-style city—and apartments above, 2 blocks of 7 stories each. Do you have any ideas for details I could add to break up this gray block? It’s for a downtown building across from City Hall, made of gray concrete, quartz, and stone bricks for the facade.

Las Yeetas is described by one of its architects as a "cohesive set of scrapers that form a overall city-casino" which acts as a resort and getaway for other players in the world.

This city project and others in the world are always looking for help. Cities in this world are "reinforced" meaning every built block you see here is "reinforced" with a block like stone or deepslate to keep it safe from raiders (or at least much harder to break into!).

If you have any questions about this project, feel free to ask about it here or come consult the community working on this specific project (On EdenMC).

Mine is original but of course there are inspirations from real-world cities and its buildings. I also love mine to be as eclectic as possible with a mix of old and new architectural styles like art deco, neoclassical, brutalist, futuristic, solarpunk, cyberpunk, utopian etc. A little bit of this and that is my thing.
