    Wow that dam is just so mindblowing, you even took the advantage of the elevation to make it look like it actually got some depth.
    Really impressive (y)

    Hey Everyone! I'm so excited to be a part of XL Nation. I am a novice learning my way. Any suggestions and help is welcomed. Here are a few pics of Moshe, my Bootleg River Map City. I made it to 300, 000 population but the game crashed last night and Moshe was lost. But!!! I do have some images from early stages of building.....

    View of Downtown from a suburb on the south side of The Bootleg River. 2015-01-03_00006.jpg

    Inner City view of downtown from a rooftop on the northern end of the city. 2015-01-03_00036.jpg
    Moshe Center of Science and Technology.

    Science and Tech Expo in session.... 2015-01-03_00033.jpg

    Sun setting on the Skyline seen from an urban neighborhood. This is as far east as I made it before I lost the city...I made a couple of suburbs on the west side, but nothing special... 2015-01-03_00035.jpg

    Four lane elevated hwy in the Warehouse district.
    2015-01-03_00016.jpg


    An interchange which connects 2 suburbs (1 elites only, 1 mixture of skilled and unskilled) to Downtown Offices, the Warehouse District, and The Center of Science and Tech. It worked very efficiently with no congestion.

    Elite small resident suburb SW
    Skilled/Unskilled medium suburb NE
    Downtown Offices NW
    Hwy Exit to Science and Tech enroute to elevated hwy through Warehouse District SE

    Sorry for the lack of Hwy system Pics and suburb outline. I'm new and I will improve!!! Please send feedback.

    Final sneak peak of White Salmon (current population 435,000). Still have lots of work to complete. Trying to create an American City in the Pacific Northwest such as Portland, Seattle, or Vancouver etc. I still have to add a large area of farming along with an interchange to the freeway. White Salmon is the premier grass seed producing region for all of North American. Farm land in this river valley is highly prized with strict zoning laws.

    Here is a look from Council Crest, showing many of the communication towers that support radio and television in the White Salmon metro area.

    Finally a Satellite view.

    I will submit my 10 photos for the contest but most likely will not compete to avoid any conflict of interests. It's hard to believe that I am actually running out of time to get this thing finished (though I guess our cities our never actually done). The next City Map challenge might start in May 2015, and I promise the harbor builders will be a lot happier.
