Will you put pubic hair around the station entries ?

Ha No.
I'll show the monorail in an hour or so I'm working on the tracks. They will loop the city.

OH MY GOSH!!! I'm having so much trouble with the monorail!!! I got 1 curve and I still have to do 3 more+the stations.
Anyways here's a little preview of the monorail tracks. The monorail car will be shown in the next update.

The Ritz is now at 580 feet tall, well over half of it's over all height.

The blue tower shown here is the Four Seasons La Corte. The building is expected to have the tallest or one of the tallest atriums in the world. The final height has not been released. Two cores are in the building, one is inside on the South side of the tower and the other is partially sticking out in the North end allowing passengers to view the city while going up.

The unpainted building behind is the Mary Sunshine Building, it's only offices in this building.

Nice job with the monorail, but I highly suggest that you change the name of that building.

I'm sorry, I just dont like it. But it's up to you. Everything else is just fantastic!

Dac, I don't like it either but I couldn't think up a good name so I just named it that. What else should it be called?

And thanks rbowk I'll try to post more pics at a time. I like going by 2's usually but I can post more.

Thanks Dac I love the last one but I'm planning on naming another road La Corte Ave. I guess I should have mentioned that that road is Marina Drive. 1414 Marina Drive!!
rbowk you're right, I should post more shots because I don't get to show all that I want to most of the time.

Just a small update on the monorail and the LCTV Center. The LCTV Center is now complete and it is the first free standing structure in the city. The monorail is doing a test run, if you pay attention later on you will notice he monorail moves location.
