lol i don't remember NYC having that orange bridge pictured up top, however, its great to see the Titanic alive, along with the twins.

Don't know when your going to build the island with the Statue of Liberty, but its a good thing for SC4 that most landmarks exist. Recreating a real city in terms of SimCity is a big project, especially because of the requirement of growing residential. Since NYC also remembers the French with their own Arc De Triumph, I guess you could always build that in a park somewhere too. Personally, the most challenging thing about real cities in SimCity terms are how building the roads are usually kind of tricky. Without NAM components like longer radius curves and Network Widening Mod, I don't know if what you proved possible could be done without it, you worked pretty hard to prove your point. 

If you want a harder challenge, I say that is recreating New York's subway line under the ground. Although, I don't usually see subways pictured in mayor diaries, because their under ground.

The last picture of that night light shot, has so much realism, others who see it that don't play SimCity 4 will deny that picture was taken in it. I think my favorite shot is the use of MAVE-6 and building a giant avenue.

Thanks

Here is the Update New York International Seaport
Sorry for translation, it's made by Gooogle (remind this in a fiew updates :D Update about the Silicone Valley  $%Grinno$%)

An overview:



Oh, what's that ... you, it looks like it's an old nuclear plant. It's located less than 4 km (Yes you read that correctly, 4 km) from Manhattan.

The first nuclear tests in order to provide electricity began in 1947. The current buildings were built between 1959 and 1967.Elle is so far the nuclear power plant has been in service for as long as it closed in the year 2003 because of too great a risk and the close proximity of New York :





A cooling pool in case (Chernobyl Fukushima, it reminds you of memories, is not it ?)



A runway landing for firefighters  &hlp







Well, there are many containers  ;D

Wow, the harbor is huge. Must have taken long to build it. I think the ships are too close together and there are too many of the blue cranes. Otherwise I like it.  :)

I really like your cities, and i think a way to make them look 10000% better would be to turn sims on. Your cities are lifeless, no cars or sims walking, just nothing, and I want to see that happening ... Other than that, I like it

IAM, guessing you still live in France, I am curious about your interest in American cityscape. The pictures with the cul-de-sacs especially with the angled houses, does resemble a regular American suburb, quite perfectly, whether Mountain View exists is beyond me.
