Hello All:
After watching this site with admiration for over a year, I am ready to post my first efforts at a city. Like many cities here, it is a work in progress. Unlike many others, it rather deliberately lacks several things:
It has no history or narrative.
It has no name, though Seven Islands is the working title for the files.
It has no textures.
It has no signature buildings.
It has no detailed buildings.
Inspired by the magnificent push-pull city posted by Toyota, it is all about the interplay between buildings and space on a large scale. It is an experiment in massing, and an effort to reproduce the feel of a large, late 20th Century American coastal city through a careful attention to scale, and scale only. It is a little bit Chicago, a little New York, a little Boston and a little San Francisco. It is also none of the above. Most of all, it is an effort to render, in broad outline, how a city might have grown up, given the constraints of landforms and the typical uses of various districts.
Here it is. It will grow slowly over time, until I feel it has served its purpose, or until my computer can no longer render it, whichever comes first.
Thanks for your attention and comments.
Keep up the magnificent work / play that goes on here.
