Hey, Mr Stealer..  :D :P
Some excellent mosaic in this update, Ioan. I really love the panorama, with on the left side, low and mid rise building and on the right part the high rise one. The EL-Rail line fits in well perfectly my friend, good work to make it with the feeling of an European city. The first mosaic is nice too, I see you use Dan's Foundation Technic, that's good, you've done it really well. The second one, with the canal is good too, I like how the EL-tram line goes on the canal, looks like a real bridge. Also, as usual, a lot of Art-Deco buildings, I like.
Take care,
-Arthur.  :thumbsup:

Nice pair of mosaics!  I really like that dark blue building by the canal in the second shot!  Could you let me know what it's called when you have a moment?  Thanks!

Hey Ioan,
wonderful Update #8  &apls It's just as good as the others  :thumbsup:
I really like your custom lots you put here and there, those make the mosaics even better.
BTW where is Pirgos located (don't know if you've ever written it)? I´t's hard to figure it out, since you mix the different architectural styles perfectly.

art128 - Thanks, although I haven't used any techniques  $%Grinno$%
BarbarossaS - Thank you! Glad you like it!
Sciurus - Merci, Guillaume! And congrats on your 1000th comment (soon I'll hit 1000 too ;D)
Battlecat - Thanks! I sent you a PM about that :P
Fabian93 - Thanks, my friend! That's a tough question, maybe Pirgos is a European country with strong North American influence in architecture? :D

Update 9
I'm working on a part of the city, but it's still not finished, so I decided to show you some random pictures from the city.
Here's the downtown I showed you in the last update:



And another downtown I've been showing you in more previous udpates:





The pier next to the beach (the next update will be focused on the area to the right of this mosaic)



Another angle



Hope you like it!
Edit: I saw some of you lurking here!  $%#Ninj2

I really like the plazas that you have in your downtown area.   :thumbsup:  The boardwalk along your beach is really nice, and that's an impressive pier!  &apls

Great update, Ioan.  :thumbsup:
Love the little beach you've made there.
And of course the Lot in front of the Waldorf-Astoria is looking brilliant  ;)

This city is fantastic. I particullary like the latest image, it reminds me the french's front of sea, built in the 60's like La Grande Motte.
Where did you fins the building we see on the latest pic please?

INCREDIBLE update!  How could I have missed this wonderful MD?  I am certainly glad I found it!  The suburbs you have there are wonderful!  The highway and the marina are both great as well!  Good job with everything you've done here.  Keep up the good work~!

I am sorry I don't comment here enough, Ioan.

Pirgos is such a wonderful MD. Your city building style absolutely amazes me. All the different BATs give sucha diversity in you downtown, and I also like how you don't make your downtowns walls of skyscrapers, with lots of midrises and a couple of lowrises here and there.

Pirgo's northern suburbs are insanely besutiful. I would compare them to those of Daniel's (Shadow Assassin), featured in Ensenada [linkie in sig]. Your blend of Brian's (c.p.), Matt's (Mattb325), and Jon's (JBSimio) BATs as well as the Maxis houses is amazing. I love those SFBT soundwalls between the RHW and the Wal-Mart. (So suburban, even though I utterly despise Wal-Mart).

The flora on that picturesque coastline is amazingly perfect, that is a wonderful amalgamation of trees, underbrush, and rocks. You probably have an amazing Mayor Mode Flora menu.

Is it pronounceed Peer-gos, or Pir-jose? Or something else?
