City Center

Description
This intersection now has a much larger version.

-------

I am a big fan of the circular city design surrounding a large downtown area, and while some of the 8-directional roundabouts I experimented with looked nice, they weren't quite what I was after. Either being too small or not having connected zone power between outer and inner sections.

So I decided to make my own to fit what I needed for my city's centerpiece.

-------

The City Center is a massive roundabout design that has 8 branching avenues going to different parts of the city. The center itself has zoning space for whatever growable buildings you want to place, or for some of the small to medium sized landmarks.

Surrounding the center area are two 6 lane, one way avenues that go around in opposite directions while a complex of pedestrian walkways allow access to various parts of the intersection to avoid the criss-crossing traffic.

All roadways should (hopefully) be fully upgradable without having to remove existing pieces.

-------

Being as large as it is the intersection is expensive to place and requires a good-sized flat area of land.

I stand corrected. I did manage to make a larger version after all: Enhanced City Center

I remember running into a similar problem when I made it, probably why I kept fiddling with city center designs, plus it didn't have space for many full 4x4 buildings to really fill it out.

That kinda bums me out. It's a brilliant design, but the center is just a bit too small for a couple of the landmark buildings I'd like to put there.

If I remember right I think it took up the max size allowed in the editor. The only way to really make it bigger would be to split it into fourths, but even then I'm not sure the roads would curve or line up right.

I know it's been a while since there was any activity on this, but would you happen to have a slightly larger version of this?

I am quite fond of circular cities. They have a nice futuristic feel to them and I personally find traffic easier to control.

I recommend grabbing the Precision Engineering mod if you don't have it. It makes planning non-grid road systems a lot easier.

I really don't remember. I took it off my assets list a while ago and I haven't been able to find it since.

What's that building in the center?

I always draw straight lines so I'll be glad to use this for a change :steamhappy:
