Making A Scenic City

Although their is no one way to make the city look beautiful here are a few suggestions that make the city look better and raise the land value. Method 1 One way to make the city look nicer and increase land values is to put a Big Park in each 6x6 block of zones. The Commercial zones grow especially high next to the big parks although Residential zones also grow to maximum height next to Big Parks. The drawback to this is the amount of space it takes up. One Big Park per 6x6 block takes up a lot of development space. Method 2 Adding waterfalls to the sides of a hill make the city look nicer. It also increases the land value of the tiles underneath and above. When coupled with the Big Parks it really spruces up the city. There isn't a real drawback to this idea unless you are using Hydro-Power plants and you need the hill space for more plants. Method 3 Another way to make the city look better is to put the Statue gift in the middle of the river. This serves no purpose at all except to make the city look better. It only works with the Statue gift since it requires no power or water. Method 4 If you are building your city in a 6x6 grid system then this is a nice way to go. Place 4 squares of water in the center of a grid and then fill the rest with zones. The drawbacks to this method are taking up development space and the zones can't develop to their maximum height (Ex. Historical Office Building).
