    Given that you plan on building the international airport so close to the downtown, it is extremely important to factor in where the runways will be pointing and adjusting the heights of the buildings accordingly.

    I feel so lucky to get another video so soon! Thank you Egg. I would suggest extending the downtown tram network into the new residential and commercial area, as they are quite high demand areas but sit between the metros and so dont rly have mass transit.

  • @OfficialCloverPie
    @OfficialCloverPie Před rokem +14

    i think the tallest buildings should be build at the end of the island, in the middle which is directly in front of future airport, it should be height limited, so maybe that whole middle portion can be parks or brooklyn style buildings..

  • @michaelw6222

    You know you are doing it right when the up close views from within the downtown are as rewarding as the distant views of the skyline. You have created so many neat little spots to see and enjoy.

    The "well hello people" is always the highlight of my day, it's like a guarantee for about an hour of peaceful entertainment ❤
    Awesome views and layers already, love the green space at the stadium/shopping district, perhaps could do with a couple of cafés/fast food stands/thunderboxes around the edges.
    By the by what happened with the small industry zone? Did they not grow in the tourism spec or you just simply didn't like what came in?

    Hello Egg,
    at first I want wo mention that this is my first comment ever (+ - 20 years online) and probably the last.
    I enjoy ur series so much I can't really tell. I tried to rebuilt Orchid Bay (in my way) twice but was never even close to the satisfaction ur videos have for me. Ur way of building, ur patience, game sense, creativity and even ur calm voice and humor are unmatched on YT in my opinion.
    Thanks a lot and keep on going.

    Phenomenal start! Many cities have weekly or monthly events called Live after Five or First Friday, where the public can come gather after work, bring their lawn chairs/camp chairs, check out art from various artisans, enjoy some cocktails and food from vendors, while listening to live Jazz, Hip Hop, or other types of live entertainment. Would you consider having the greenspace near the stadium and transit being used as sort of a pavilion where public events and open concerts could take place?

    • @scottjohnson3017
      @scottjohnson3017 Před rokem +2

      Could also be used for Tailgating and Pre-gaming events,

    A wonderful start for what promises to be an incredible city centre for Orchid Bay! I love how nice and spaced out everything is. Great choice of assets - I had the same initial thought about the Korean twin towers but have grown to really like them and have found a good use for them. I love how the two tall Green Cities towers act as a second set of twin towers to compliment their Korean friends.
    Just ONE thing I would suggest - move that other tower a little bit further away from the Korean duo (even just one or two tiles) maybe putting a pathway or a small plaza between them, just to give the Korean duo a bit of breathing room since that other tower is quite wide. It'll still add to the skyline without butting right up close to the twin towers. Otherwise though, a solid episode. Love it!

    specific things I like about your building style :
    generous yet tasteful and thought through tree placement.
    creative design of backdoor area and private or semi private gardens.
    buildings plaza, acces pathways, parkings.
    integrated multimodal transit system.
    using architectural themes coherently, taking into account the surrounding buildings yet adding diversity to the city.
    abundance of pedestrian area, cycling ways and parks.
    filling all the little spaces and giving them meaning using a lot a fences.
    I didn't include everything around your building style that make all of this so wonderful including your editing job, your personality, your interactions with your community etc
    Also, I have the upmost respect for your creative direction and your understanding of the general intent of the community. I know that this is only my opinions and I would enjoy your work just as much if you would'nt take into consideration my comments

    I really love the way this city center is growing. The lawn area against the red path looks great, but may have you used the Heart of Africa conference centre yet? I can't remember. I think the low profile and pop of colour would suit the area well. I think Orchid Bay is fabulous and you deserve all the attention you are getting for such an amazing build.

Maybe you could use a slow managing episode or stream, just to take the time to check up services, posts, small banks, taxis, transit capacity or bus stops opportunities... I also though that your city could use some "desire paths". I love to see represented the frustrated people like me who won't follow your beautiful pathways and just make our dirt ones ourselves x)

The gardens also have an exquisite orchid house. 😂 These trees are not found naturally on the coast. Durban Boy's High also has a Baobab next to their rugby fields that was donated to the school. The tree is a very important part of the culture and traditions for the school.

    I always try to start my cities as small towns and grow then dynamically but redoing downtown road networks has been such a pain. Any tips on redesigning "old" areas?. My go to solution has been pedestrianisation or one way roads lol

    That spot in the left of the island you could make into a large city park or large Intercity university campus or a bit of both
