My suggestion for the name of the industrial area is: Black Rock Wharf. I imagine that the name came about from the coal (black rocks) being unloaded from the cargo ships.
Vanilla assets + mods is probably my most favorite style of playing. It gives you the freedom of all the things possible with mods but without the lag you'll get by playing with thousands of workshop assets lol
An idea for your city name ; Cape Kirsty (Founded 1887). Shortly after the city was established, the wife of the local weighty dissapeared, never to be seen again... Out of love and grief, he built a cross to her. "To my beloved Kirsty Woodward, 1859-1888". New settlers then began to name the place Cape Kirsty. This lill' story could give you the opportunity to build a seaside neighbourhood, ot an historical center with a park and a monument to Kirsty Woodward. P.S : It's great to see you work with vanilla. Hope you'll have as much fun as us watching you !
Hahaha, I'm Mike, and I work in the warehouse you showed by the quayside. During breaks I usually go to the pier with the demolished car by it, with two of my coworkers, one Canadian and one Polish (it wasn't me who put a ghost pepper in your lunch the other day, if you're reading this mate, I swear haha). They always go on about how the pier reminds them of their homelands, which I just find mind-boggling, as I was raised in Florida, and I always thought that pier was the most American thing ever LOL I don't know how to apply or lobby for things to be named (I'm paid to operate a forklift, not study the city council processes), but just in case you see it, I'd love it if you named the thing the 'World Pier'. Cheers mate, thanks for creating a job for us :)
I'm not sure if the idea would be to your liking, but here it is: For the Industrial area, it's name could colloquially be Salty Produce, with it's original (and oficial) name being Richard Bayes Industrial Complex, after the County Counselor who advocated for the region to be transformed into an industrial site. Since there were groups pressuring it to be kept as a natural reserve, Bayes helped the municipal government to find a suitable land almost twice as big, a couple kilometers to the south of it, where corals were abundant and there was a small mangrove nearby, to be made into a natural reserve in its stead. That reserve was later made into a big park, the current post card of the city. Bayes' help was so important for the development of the town that not only the district got his name, but also one of the main arterial connections of the city, leading directly to the political district: Counselor Bayes Boulevard.
6:43 My suggestion for the Noname district: Revere Beach, named by a James F. Adams, a rich old Bostonian who moved down to Florida in the early 1900s for his health. He built the area and named it for Revere Massachusetts, the Boston area town he grew up in and its strand, Revere Beach, which in the 19th and early 20th Centuries was a local seaside attraction, and of course for Paul Revere.
I've been wanting to do a vanilla+ style playthrough for a while, but can never motivate myself to get started. Maybe watching this will be the motivation I need :D
the industrial building with the rail would look good turned around with multiple rails entering through the open side. This is a cool build non the less and im stoked to see it grow!
As long as detailing in vanilla goes, I'd say anything goes. Cause it takes a little of observers' own imagination to believe that what they see is what the author tries to present, so with the cargo train stuff on the rails it works for me, cause I totally see the effort of making it look believable with what you have and that what makes it good!
For the industry district name i would think of it as one big company that historically sponsored the growth of its nearby town/city and was on the river for a long time and developed into this water treatment, power plant center. Train tracks as well as docks are used for coal shipments and goods deliveries. Not gonna go too much into lore writing here but just gonna throw in a company name: "Carbon/Life industries"
It's so satisfying to see someone who fully understands how the mods work, and how to use them to enhance these type of super detailed builds. This was entertaining, educational and inspiring! Just wonderful!
I rarely enjoy vanilla builds but yours are always a joy to watch, so I'm all here for it! Even if I miss the usual Coniferia episode on a Sunday. As for the city name, what about Crosstown? A tribute to a Jimi Hendrix song and first thing that popped into my head after seeing the roads shaped like a cross, lol.😅
As far as a city name goes, maybe something like Dusk Isles. The game is in it's Twilight weeks before City Skylines 2 comes out. Dusk referring to this one of your last if not the last City Skylines maps that you take on before CS2 comes out.
I think it should be called hallowing brights. Backstory: when the original town was founded. Thier was a story that if you went on the bay early in the morning whilst it was foggy you could see lights that looked to be coming from the ship. Hallow means to honor something or someone as holy. So when they came to name the town it was suggested to honor the ship. Hollowing comeing from honoring the ship and the ones that passed. And brights from the lights of the ship.
I like the name Corona for this map. It means crown in Spanish, so it could be a good name for the crown jewel of the map, whichever city that may be. It's also a word that most English speakers already know.
The city of Saint Christina was founded in 1597 by Spanish missionaries to convert the local Ais tribe of La Florida to Christianity. The city was nothing of note, but the reef, however, was al spectacular that it captured the attention of the missionaries, naming it the “Arrecife de Cristal,” after the settlement they had built. Today the Ais Industrial Park sits on what used to be the native settlement in the area and the entire county has taken the name of the reef adjacent to it.
Hey man. I have just started watching you yesterday, but I can already tell that building in city skyilines 1 is really your thing! I want to say that I hope you get even better but that just doesnt feel possible to me since I think that you have already reached god tier. I wish you good luck with the future of your channel.
Really nice start to a new series. With the industrial space near the Water and Power section, I'm pretty sure they added a Warehouse with a train connection with the Industry DLC, the actual gameplay is a bit funky but it should help sell the visual interconnection. Also in a in game warehouse for storing coal would work too, I can't remember if you can store coal outdoors but the small one should help bring in traffic without worrying about filling jobs. I'm not sure if it's in the pack or you enjoy using it, but I find Procedural Objects another powerful way to customize Vanilla assets, especially for splicing into other buildings and increasing the footprint.
Thanks a lot Colbacon - and thanks a ton for the cool feedback! I am still a little undecided on whether I want to use PO and IMT actively as that is really gonna push some things to a "non-vanilla look" - I guess it's a bit of a balance.
I think you should give your access to the city center more space. It feels as if the connections to the highway are really pressed in there. I would expect a city to have planned that differently. Maybe it would also make sense to connect only one of the two highways at that spot?
Florida has some interesting power cooperatives that have localized electric providers. Perhaps Crystal Reef broke away from the regional utility provided (Florida Power & Light), and formed the Crystal Coast Cooperative. The Cooperative named the plant district Indian Harbor after the river that feeds it - the Indian River. Florida has long had dueling historical importance placed on both the original native tribes that inhabited the peninsula, and Spanish names leftover from the conquistadors who traveled through and colonized the state. I would propose naming the central island and it's city San Leon, as a play on the explorer Ponce de Leon. Love to see you working on a Floridian project!
This is great. Just what I looked for. And love the length of the video, not conforming to modern yt-standars of just around 20 min for maximum monetezation or whatever.
happy to catch this at when its at this stage, excited to see where its going. also the format with the talking segments is great keep doing it love to hear how you do detail work
I think the main city name needs to exude some sense of rich/luxurious imagery like Sunset Beach or Caramel Coast or White Sands. Or you could pay homage to Florida's Spanish history and name it after a city in Spain - Las Palmas, Marbella, or Salamanca sound nice.
How about making the entrance to the first city a SPUI (like the interchange between I4 and Florida route 436). I know SPUI are difficult to make in vanilla but you can get an approximation by breaking the highway. In the gap created put the local road with a bidirectional 4 road intersecting it (make sure the 4 lane that intersects the local road runs where the highway did). Connect on and off ramps from the ends of the highway to the ends of the 4 lane road where the highway used to run. Bridge the main portion of the highway over the intersection or put it in a tunnel underneath. And that’s how to make a functional equivalent of a SPUI in vanilla.
Thank you for the suggestion David, that could be a good idea! The main limitation to creating nice interchanges isn't so much the vanilla assets, since the process of creating a SPUI is mostly carried by mods (at least I assume as much). The main limitation is probably my interchange-creating-skills :'-D
A cool name would be New Palmers, cuz there are lots of palm tress and it’s a beach. Another name would be Palmers Port cuz there’s is probably going to be a port and it has palm trees 😂
Check out the roof vegetation props, they're terrific for detailing and filling in green spaces. I play like this as well, but with a few more mods. One that's useful as well is one that gives you props of all the vehicles in the game which helps fill in those industrial areas with parked vehicles. Using BOB on the parking lots to remove the hedges also makes those parking lots more versatile. Looking forward to what you make :)
Hi Joshua, thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it! And I should go grab that mod - which specific one do you recommend for turning vehicles into props? Because I found one some time back that was a bit issue-prone unfortunately. And thanks a ton for 5 years of subscription, awesome! 😊
Great build as always & I like that you mix vanilla with crucial mods! 👌🏻😊 I think you should add the cargo station in this area as well because it will be helpful with distribution of goods in the future ☺️
Realistic Population is the bomb! There is a better balance between population and commercial/industrial so you don't end up with massive industrial and commercial centers. And you can tweak the settings to suit your needs.
I love the mod! Although it will also pose quite a challenging seeing as I expect us to build lots and lots of sprawl, and with just 1 household pr. single-family unit, getting the population up is tough with sprawl! On the flip side, our dense condo/apartment areas will have a much higher population than their "vanilla simulation" equivalent!
@@Infrastructurist That is right; with the restricted build space you have it is still possible to build a "big" city because of RP. I'm building a big city with RP but it is slow going. I'm always using flat maps, but maybe you're series will inspire me to build on maps that are more challenging.
Around the 40 minutes mark when you started working on the train tracks, I was thinking "This cannot be a good idea". But I decided to wait and see and at the end when the huge building structure was placed and it became a train dry-dock, I was impressed. And the container train car works.
Some names I can suggest are Meteoria since the mid island looks like a meteoroid hit it. And the starting town can be Metegate as a entry to the Meteoria City. Also Gramchester, Idoport (if you make an port area), Avok (a shady nightlife, dystopic, tourists trap city)
Hi Robofantastic. I am very glad to hear that as I am always a little anxious about my narration - I do try to improve it all the time! If you check the description you will find a quick guide on how to copy my setup 1:1 😊
I'm a freak for military bases in city skylines, but you should have a airbase island 👀, name it Mees Riemersma Air Base home of the 5th Tactical Fighter Squadron, equipped with F-16s and P-3 Orions for maritime patrolling in the area.
For the city name something like Aishore would seem to fit, considering the area of crystal reef used to belong to the Ais nation. It also seems to sound somewhat similar to ‘East’, befitting if it’s geographic position Whatever name the city would have though, I am looking forward to the challenge creating a realistic and large city with vanilla assets would bring
Since the area in your new city resembles a crater impact, I've got some awesome name suggestions for you: 1. Astropolis/Astrotopia 2. Celestinia/Celestia 3. Stellaria/Stellaris 4. Crater Bay 5. Crateria 6. Meteoropolis/Meteoria 7. Lunarcrest/Lunaris 8. Galactown I hope one of these names makes it to your top 3! 😁 Whatever name you choose, I'm sure an amazing series awaits us! Can't wait to see the city thrive and flourish.
Nonesuch City... When the first tourist booms began in the early 20th century, the residents wanted to keep their island and keys for themselves. So when out-of-towners would stop looking for local towns and beaches to visit, the locals would say there was "no such town."
McCormick, named after a police officer who claimed burger king put dirt on his burger when it turned out it was just seasoning. Just a very fitting florida man/america headline.
Not for nothing not everyone is into heavily modding a game, not everyone CAN mod games because they are not good at modding and feel left out of a lot. Doing things with a Vanilla game really helps those realize they don't need mods, you CAN play the game as is and still have it enjoyable.
Hey man, amazing build and absolutely stunning visuals!!! I've always played cities on a basic pc and I'm thinking of upgrading my setup in preparation for cities 2. Would love to know the specs on your machine that enables such high quality graphics and also what your ideal setup upgrade would be for cities 2, if any. Cheers!!
If you make another city I think it should be called Chihuahua city having a history similar to Miami, Orlando, and Jacksonville, and it's a multicultural city
At 1:06:05 when you are selecting your roads, whats that menu popup you use to select the trees for the road? Great vid - looking forward to seeing how this develops, might try and play along. :)
No no no! For the longest time I have wanted to have several series run at the same time, to mix it up a bit :-) And if Cities Skylines 2 is announced to release very late this year.. There is nothing stopping us from starting another high-detail series as well 😊

Infra
Also Infrastria would be a neat name for it bc it got your yt name
I think that the name should start with Cape, Cape Coral or Cape Canaveral are real Florida areas. I would say Cape Crystal or Cape Conif
LIKED and COMMENTED 😄👍

Hi Juni, glad to hear this should be right up your alley then! I am looking forward to working on a series with more than 11 fps 😊
Yes yes YES! I love when modders do these Vanilla+ series. This is going to be an incredible project to finish out CS1.
Wohoo, glad it's right up your alley Aaron, good to have you onboard! 😊
Now i have 2 of my favorite outside the US CZcamsrs doing a series on my home state. Cool.
Cool Lawrence - which Florida county? 😃
Infra and $2.20 sure as hell are a joy to watch!

New Vice City map looks great!
Flashback FM!
I think the name should be something like crator island, since it looks like theres a pretty huge meteor which has hit the island sometime in the past
Impact bay? Meteorite landing? Something sexy like that perhaps...
@@stoopidnoob4723name has to be sexy
Crescent Ridge or Crescent Bay to allude to the shape it makes on land or in the water
Áviles (ah-vy-les) or Cape Áviles sounds like a cool name for a city
Sounds pretty sweet - but it's already an established city, no? 😊
@@Infrastructurist Well,who knows!🙂
I think a name like ‘Crystal Cay’ would be cool, if you’re for some alliteration.
Currently, vanilla assets are so good. And it gives me a hope that assets in the sequel will be as good as those.
Hi thejaster - it certainly seems like the Cities Skylines 2 Vanilla Assets are even a tier above!
I think you should give your access to the city center more space. It feels as if the connections to the highway are really pressed in there. I would expect a city to have planned that differently. Maybe it would also make sense to connect only one of the two highways at that spot?
really enjoying these long episodes! perfect for watching on the side
Glad to hear that Luke! I often mix up different types of "production": Timelapse with just music, real-time let's play, and often a mix of both!
It seems to me that CS1 is more of an art program to you, rather than a city building game. Looks Great!
Just found out this channel.. amazing build ! Subscribed !
Florida has some interesting power cooperatives that have localized electric providers. Perhaps Crystal Reef broke away from the regional utility provided (Florida Power & Light), and formed the Crystal Coast Cooperative. The Cooperative named the plant district Indian Harbor after the river that feeds it - the Indian River.

This is great. Just what I looked for. And love the length of the video, not conforming to modern yt-standars of just around 20 min for maximum monetezation or whatever.
Great first episode! Really enjoyed it and got some good ideas for my next city attempt!
Hi Ma Pinlan - thank you, glad to hear that!
happy to catch this at when its at this stage, excited to see where its going. also the format with the talking segments is great keep doing it love to hear how you do detail work
I'm very happy to hear that Stoob! Especially that you like the format, I am always so unsure about the reception 😊
I think the main city name needs to exude some sense of rich/luxurious imagery like Sunset Beach or Caramel Coast or White Sands. Or you could pay homage to Florida's Spanish history and name it after a city in Spain - Las Palmas, Marbella, or Salamanca sound nice.
How about making the entrance to the first city a SPUI (like the interchange between I4 and Florida route 436).
I know SPUI are difficult to make in vanilla but you can get an approximation by breaking the highway. In the gap created put the local road with a bidirectional 4 road intersecting it (make sure the 4 lane that intersects the local road runs where the highway did). Connect on and off ramps from the ends of the highway to the ends of the 4 lane road where the highway used to run. Bridge the main portion of the highway over the intersection or put it in a tunnel underneath. And that’s how to make a functional equivalent of a SPUI in vanilla.
Thank you for the suggestion David, that could be a good idea! The main limitation to creating nice interchanges isn't so much the vanilla assets, since the process of creating a SPUI is mostly carried by mods (at least I assume as much). The main limitation is probably my interchange-creating-skills :'-D
I would call the first city, Saint Pierre, to French discoverers who got stranded at that place and named it to their beloved Saint Pierre
A cool name would be New Palmers, cuz there are lots of palm tress and it’s a beach. Another name would be Palmers Port cuz there’s is probably going to be a port and it has palm trees 😂
Thank you for the suggestion Ambrose :-)

Using BOB on the parking lots to remove the hedges also makes those parking lots more versatile.
Looking forward to what you make :)
Hi Joshua, thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it! And I should go grab that mod - which specific one do you recommend for turning vehicles into props? Because I found one some time back that was a bit issue-prone unfortunately.
And thanks a ton for 5 years of subscription, awesome! 😊

I think you should add the cargo station in this area as well because it will be helpful with distribution of goods in the future ☺️
Hi Flis - thanks a lot, and thank you for the suggestion! 😊
Realistic Population is the bomb! There is a better balance between population and commercial/industrial so you don't end up with massive industrial and commercial centers. And you can tweak the settings to suit your needs.
I love the mod! Although it will also pose quite a challenging seeing as I expect us to build lots and lots of sprawl, and with just 1 household pr. single-family unit, getting the population up is tough with sprawl!

Thanks for all the suggestions Hecktic, awesome!
City name -- Crystal Beach. Kind of a riff off of Clearwater FL and Crystal Reef Co., FL
Cool suggestion - thanks Jason! 😊
Also my first tought.
Really nice video from you as always :)
Thank you!
0:23 “a few key areas” I see what you did there 😉
You should name the town Flora since all the nature surrounding the town and maybe in the future there could be lots of flowers surrounding the town
this video is sooo underrated
i love this the mad is crazy and with your skills? its more then beutiful, i love it
New Atoll City might be a good city name
The city name should be rock bottom, cuz there is a long beach line and rock bottom is a episode from SpongeBob :)
Hi AEShooter thank you for the suggestion 😃
I'm from this area of Florida. Looking forward to this series!
I love your casual and relaxed narration and your creative builds blows my mind. Have you ever created a steam workshop mod and asset collection?
Hi Robofantastic. I am very glad to hear that as I am always a little anxious about my narration - I do try to improve it all the time!
If you check the description you will find a quick guide on how to copy my setup 1:1 😊
I live in Indian River County. I will say that 90% of the beaches in Florida doesn't look as good as in game. Most of them is covered in seaweed.
Aw, damn! How's the county otherwise? And hows the climate?
I love this series I’ve never been so into a city skylines build before..
Longer episodes are better 😊
Glad you enjoyed it Adam! You don't think it moves on too slow, or too much talking? 😂
Can't wait to see what you get to do with CS2
It's gonna be tons of fun!
The main city should be named "Crysalis"
Nice man, quite an undertaking. Will you continue the Coniferia as well?
Thanks Ivan! Yep, I want multiple series to run at once!
I'm a freak for military bases in city skylines, but you should have a airbase island 👀, name it Mees Riemersma Air Base home of the 5th Tactical Fighter Squadron, equipped with F-16s and P-3 Orions for maritime patrolling in the area.
Perhaps we should consider renaming the city as La Flordia Beach, a nod to the Spanish name given to the state of Florida.
That's a stunning map
It really is - absolutely amazing that there are so many beautiful maps on the workshop, all set and ready for cool projects!
Great start!
Thank you!
For the city name something like Aishore would seem to fit, considering the area of crystal reef used to belong to the Ais nation. It also seems to sound somewhat similar to ‘East’, befitting if it’s geographic position
Whatever name the city would have though, I am looking forward to the challenge creating a realistic and large city with vanilla assets would bring
Thank you Falternative, and thank you for the suggestion. Glad to have you on board 😊
It looks amazing
Thank you!
The container/ train idea by the industry was so smart
This guy is very detailed oriented. Great job.
Idk if there’s some sort of asset that looks like a forklift but it’d be nice to pepper a couple of those around the yards in this industrial complex.
I think you should name the first city into "Las Palma" or "Mirama" I think it would sound nice for the area 😄
La Palma (singular) or Las Palmas (plural)?
Since the area in your new city resembles a crater impact, I've got some awesome name suggestions for you:
1. Astropolis/Astrotopia
2. Celestinia/Celestia
3. Stellaria/Stellaris
4. Crater Bay
5. Crateria
6. Meteoropolis/Meteoria
7. Lunarcrest/Lunaris
8. Galactown
I hope one of these names makes it to your top 3! 😁 Whatever name you choose, I'm sure an amazing series awaits us! Can't wait to see the city thrive and flourish.
Thanks for all the suggestions and kind words Mohamed, appreciated! 😊
Dlc vanilla with a dash of mods. It's incredible you stayed on budget
Hi here are some ideas for town names * PAVALAS,MONACIA ,MAUGIO, Nouvelle CAMARGUE ,FRÉJUS ,BASTIA
Any chance u'll start a desert city or something like that? Anyway pretty hyped for this series.
Currently I am open for anything, and I will continue to see if I can squeeze in a bit of experimentation once in a while in my tight schedule 😊
@@Infrastructurist No worries man, I'm good w/ any series u start lol. You're one of the youtubers I quite enjoy.
Excited for this series!
Ok, I promised that I would not start a new city before CS2... now I NEED to start one, thanks Infraestructurist :D
The power lines are too close to tree, which would be against regulations because it’s a fire hazard and the tree could also fall and cause an outage.
Nonesuch City... When the first tourist booms began in the early 20th century, the residents wanted to keep their island and keys for themselves. So when out-of-towners would stop looking for local towns and beaches to visit, the locals would say there was "no such town."
Dolphin Bay came to mind. I mean...look at it 😅
McCormick, named after a police officer who claimed burger king put dirt on his burger when it turned out it was just seasoning. Just a very fitting florida man/america headline.
a good name would be "Meteoro Key" as it looks like a meteor hit it thousands of years ago and because its also key : )
New viewer here, can already tell I'm going to be binge watching your channel
For the still sitting train cars why don’t you take inspiration from the cargo trains that run around.
I have a love affair with Florida.
Excited for this!!
Haha, glad to hear that Meesa, glad to have you on board! 😊
You. Are. So. Incredibly. Good. At. CZcams.
Applause!!!!!!
I appreciate that, thank you!
New sub, wow wow your detailing is off the charts.
could you maybe make a video showing your all visual mods settings like relight and postprocessfx for example?
Not for nothing not everyone is into heavily modding a game, not everyone CAN mod games because they are not good at modding and feel left out of a lot. Doing things with a Vanilla game really helps those realize they don't need mods, you CAN play the game as is and still have it enjoyable.
Reminds me of the Miami beach
AMAZING!!.. Thank you!!
Thank you!
I want to see someone do a vanilla build but only using Move-It mod.
Hey man, amazing build and absolutely stunning visuals!!!
I've always played cities on a basic pc and I'm thinking of upgrading my setup in preparation for cities 2. Would love to know the specs on your machine that enables such high quality graphics and also what your ideal setup upgrade would be for cities 2, if any. Cheers!!
This shit is gonna be incredible ! Keep it up mate !
This actually looks like where I live in Florida, minus the elevation changes.
Couldnt time it any better brother
Haha - true ;-)
If you make another city I think it should be called Chihuahua city having a history similar to Miami, Orlando, and Jacksonville, and it's a multicultural city
Crycity is a funny but cool name
At 1:06:05 when you are selecting your roads, whats that menu popup you use to select the trees for the road?
Great vid - looking forward to seeing how this develops, might try and play along. :)
Is conifeira over? I am very hyped for the new episode
No no no! For the longest time I have wanted to have several series run at the same time, to mix it up a bit :-) And if Cities Skylines 2 is announced to release very late this year.. There is nothing stopping us from starting another high-detail series as well 😊
@@Infrastructurist I love you!
@@Infrastructurist thanks i loved that there is a new series to watch beside coniferia now super cool
I live in Brevard county 👍🏼 make sure there is a Florida man story somewhere lol
infra-EVER-SO-SLIGHTLY-structurist :)
Hey! Is that a poke at another one of my mange weird language traits? 😂
@@Infrastructurist LOL it's just one of my quirks, I notice stuff like that with others. My colleagues LOVE me LOL
