the gothic tower is new

me thinks you shuold move GSB a few blocks away from Ga.,but not so much it looks like NY. though it might look better with more buildings. I wouldent worry to much bout the financial center,It seems like it will have a nice effect. were is the old stock exchange going?

I like the two big G's across from each other, looks very spire like. And I don't know yet, It has to come back, its a Staunton classic!!

Main Financial District

The Manhattan/Brooklyn overlay will be gone soon, only temporary as for starters, eventually will have real textures. The Jefferson Bridge needs an upgrade so we won't see it for a while.

Everything is looking really great now! You just keep finding ways to improve the city.

I must say I agree with Dac though, the spires on Galcorp just look awkward.

I have to be honest, i don't like the spires on Staunton's tallest either.
Otherwise, keep up the improvements of staunton.

@Partick - it just looks better and better - are you even capable of doing something wrong?

I haven't posted in a while because I've been way busy, but man did I miss something.

Why does Galcorp have spires? I don't like that much.

Were those shots taken from the Docklands/waterfront area?

In the Oceanside Thread you made notes a few compinies moving offices to Staunton? Is This Confermed?

Will Stanton Ever see somethig like that Smexy curv building in Oceanside?(U.S. airlines HQ?)

You also mentioned Staunton will get an OBS Tower?Is this True?

Finnaly,I think hat Gal will look better with less anenas.The Two Tallest Ones and several shorter ones(much shorter tthan whats up now)

I looks Great!

Depends really what kind of building it is. But thats one of the reasons im redoing Staunton, many of the buildings where impossibly thin.

In those pics, only a few, like the Time Square themed building.

Yes the Callahan Village area, next to Peir 13 Mall and the docks. I dont know, that was a year ago, Oceanside's pretty dead as it is. I love the US Airlines Tower and I really want to bring it to Staunton, but a tower that huge would throw off the balanced skyline, if it came back, it would have to replace the Lloyd Tower Whats an OBS Tower? I'll see what I can do, I've been dodging those antennas for a while now.

Well I've been busy with school, friends, other projects, not enough time for Staunton.

This World Trade Center model I've been working on for a 9/11 Conspiracy Documentary got me enough money to buy a camera.



The Camera, has been very addicting.



So yeah busy, Homecoming was Friday. Heres a quick snap at Staunton's progress:



I'll try and get back to working on Staunton soon, I've been sturring up some new ideas
