    Well, looks like you are really on fire!
    Nice updates, Sir!
    Your work with the embellishment mods is really amazing,
    those gates are real artworks!
    I think it was better to have the Dome removed, now the
    (Neo) Gothic Cathedral was just the center of sight.
    Reminds me on Cologne :D
    What about that lonely street that runs through the center
    of that old town district with the cathedral and that has no buildings next to it?
    Is that some kind of expressway through downtown?

    Very nice tramtunnel! Do xou think it was possible to have some
    kind of artificial tunnel by placing no collision houses next to each otherr and the tram line
    below? I mean, the no collision houses do only have this lengthy piece of wall below...

    You mean the houses with a very smal collision box? Or change the collision box that the width is more. You can create walls but i think you won`t have a nice roof of the tunnel and the houses are very close to eachother. In this case I had to use a real tunnel because I had to cross the canal, and it`s a functional tunnel. I also made a canaltunnel, with houses on top - see the canal section - the stadtholdersbridge. The water runs beneath the houses.

    Love the update, one can really see that you cared a lot getting those archs standing in line
    on that tower, superb!!!
    Will there be some more modern parts, too?
    Like a central station, some highways, or similar?

    Yeah of course - there wil be some more modern parts too, but building the old city takes a lot of hours. Building the East Gate took me more then 3 days of work for example. There are already some modern industie-buildings in a second LOCK-complex near the river and a modern appartment tower in the harbor. But in the old part of Achillius modern buildings are rare.
    I Already build a railway station, [an old one, elevated, with nice arches and shops underneath the railway track] The station is outside the canal system, near the Eastgate.
    When the city was build there where no highways, so i will fitt in the Highways when the old part is finnished, maybe I have to demollish some farmhouses or other houses, but i will give a natural look....the old building wich have to remove will be replaced bij more modern ones depending on the time/date when the highway was build. On the other site of the river the will be a modern financial district and the will be a large airport....but thats the future

    I do still hope that more people will have a look onto your fantastic
    images. For me, your city is one of the most impressive cities I have ever seen,
    simply because of your apparentely never-ending patience with no-collision buildings,
    as well as because of your skills when it comes to urban planning in general!
    Great work!
