This might have been an intentional strategy to let an old bridge fall into disrepair and replace it. Post-war era was the time of disdain for the previous decades' planning and architecture. In Western Europe the idea was that the old buildings are unhygiencal, uncomfortable and cramped so modernist housing has to replace it (also things like art nouveau were seen as "ugly" and "distasteful" in the age of undecorated modernism). East of the Iron Curtain the old buildings represented the "bourgoise pre-war society" of the filthy rich houseowners and so had to go. In Warsaw a pre-war Poniatowski bridge was restored from ruin albeit without much of the old architectural detail. Then in 2000s neo-renaissance towers were re-built, which may also be an inspiration for your bridges for the capitalist era.
Cant believe I just watched almost a half hour in absolute love to “just a bridge”. Your PO is amazing! Love the remnant if the old bridge too. Very nice detail.
14:50 In Prague half of its bridges int he city center have shared tram lanes with cars today. For instance the Mánes, Paláckého, Čechuv bridges I think only the Štefanikuv, Hlávkuv Libeňský, and Troja bridges have seperate lanes for tram. The Legie bridge as well, but no one follows traffic directions there.
I think only Čechův has dedicated car lane shared with tram. At least to the extend of having four car lanes instead of two, and the inner lanes are intended to be shared. All of the other bridges are technically ment to be separated, but the car lane is often too narrow to drive in it, so the cars "spill over" to the tram tracks, Legie being the worst offender.
Śląsko Dąbrowski bridge have similar story. It replaced destroyed in 2WW bridge (Kerbedzia bridge). They also moved road under old city to the tunel (Trasa W-Z).
That bridge looking so good (it even got details under it and on arch) Mr.Akruas, you doing great job. 28:07 nice View Looking forward for your next video.
You're not a human. You're a magician! You do in Cities: Skylines whatever you want. It looks like there aren't any physical barriers to build anything. That bridge is one of the most detailed I've ever seen! Congrats!
I am a little disappointed that the 50s are ending soon since I'd love to see more content in the era, but I would like to maybe see a 50s overview since it has been a while since an overview was done. And even if there weren't too much changes, the changes were all pretty interesting nonetheless and I would like to see an overview of them. Also that bridge is gorgeous!
I really love how the new areas of Altengrad (will) look 😊(more on that in two weeks - I watched the Livestream yesterday). It shoudn‘t also be forgotten that Socialist Realism fell out of favor in the mid-1950s. It is completly plausible that the style was dragged into the later parts of the decade in order to preserve the unified look of a large project (Karl Marx Allee in Berlin is an great example for that). However it would be nice if there were more smaller projects all around the city that indicade that change - the Apartments from last episode were a great start, Buildings like the Zenit and Cedet department store (from robal) also fit the late 50s style very well. Koldum Perla in Ceske Budejovice would also be at home in Altengrad. I would also recommend to look at Postcards from the 50s - 80s for inspiration (eBay and Aukro are great for that). Old Areal Pictures are great for some purposes but they lack important detail and perspectives.
For the empty post bomb plots maybe some kind of national department store? Look at the Central Department store (Centralny Dom towarowy, CDT) in Warsaw. The okrąglak building from robal could also fot there nicely. Maybe a couple new cinemas in a modernist style could work well. You might see on the CDT that it had a huge neon; neons were relatively popular in big cities and if your planning on making the city more night time friendly, it might be really cool to see some neons. Great episode as always!
the yellow-ish building in the top left at 26:55 would be a great opportunity for a future museum, of course I expect a city like this to have multiple but maybe like a modern art museum.
In reference to your previous Altengrad video. You can search for "Poznań, Piatkowo, Poland" to find a little inspiration in creating this type of settlement. I think it has a very similar structure to the one you have in Altengrad. The bridge is amazing :)
in my home town, they left a pillar from the old bridge and put a statue on it, i think it is really cool and its a big landmark for us, but it was a bit later in history tho i think, probably the 80s
Personally I'd really like to see a 50s overview, especially since there wasn't one for the 40s. You could always add more 1950s projects to pad things out, especially since the 50s had distinct architecture from the 60s and it would give character to the city.
I was hoping the old bridge could be converted into a pier, like the old Skyway bridge that collapsed in Tampa. The bridge totally looks like painted steel. It's a masterpiece!
Hey Akruas, you might not see this but I thought some small villages and farm houses in the farms would be nice, because otherwise it’s just fields without any farmers or farmhouses.
Idk how was it in Czechoslovakia, but in Croatia government took land from church, for example: gardens, institutions etc. So there's land to grab in central city (note you have to do it in old times, things like that become very unpopular after fall of communism. Also, I know its too late , but you could have made villages around Altengrad and than absorb them Ps love your videos, its fun learning history with some gameplay
Nice touch when making the tram stop railbars red and white, it's the same here in Prešov. I also noticed a lot of the tram supports and streetlight have blue and yellow markings, I wonder if it's possible to do such thing in Procedural Objects. :o Anyways, good work, I'm excited to see an Altengrad version of Nad Jazerom v Košiciach. :)
In Gdańsk, Poland in the city center is a scyscraper called »Zieleniak« (Literally »greeny« i think). You said you wanted some brutal contrast, so maybe do something similar to that c:
Really enjoying all the videos so far, great work! I have an idea which could be implemented in later decades, like a small model of the old bridge near the bridge (probably too hard to do but i have no idea) . I am from Tartu and we have the same little model infront of the new bridge, it was an cobblestone bridge which was also destroyed during WW2. Just a fun little idea that i thought could be added near the new bridge. Anyhoo, keep up the great work!
It's going to make me feel good to see a new episode of Altengard with great quality content. continue to make content focused on quality and not quantity!
I heard that in czechoslovakia in 1950s when was political procesess, people which were against regime they were imprisoned, and much of them work to build railway bridge. After the revolution that bridge was renamed to: bridge of intelligent. This bridge could be renamed after 1989.
I belive he did a good mood. Prague was not a perfect example of Central European city as it was mostly spared during war. I think looking at Warsaw or Wroclaw is more accurate. Krakow and Prague are too Austrian
Naw, i was speaking from my perspective as a czech. There were a lot of influences on the city from central europe. And the old town bridge looks strikingly similar to charles bridge in prague
If you ever build an airport later, it may start as a military airport amd later in early 2000 become a small regional airport (like Pardubice in Czechia)
I think I saw you deleting old tram tracks? While it looks clean, a lot of post-soviet cities have (even today) roads with unused tracks still inside - it's just too much of a hassle to remove them.
Weren't there some police officers that controlled traffic back in the days? I think I saw a picture of a crossing like the one at the start of the bridge where there was a police officer in the middle handling the traffic. I'm not sure but I think I also saw a very small cabin in the middle of that crossing where the police officer can go inside when there is not traffic or whatever. Might be a great addition to this series. Anyways, this is a very good looking bridge. Keep up the good work Akruas!
Why do I feel so old all of a sudden... I remember those trams, in my city they were of a dirty egg yolk color which tbh looked quite nice. But they did all have 3 cars instead of the 2 you have.
Such a great update. lovely to see. Your talent on this program is beyond amazing my friend. i'd been keen to know what spec of PC you are running especially as it runs so smoothly with all your details.
Will you add an auto bridge on the other side of the confluence area? There's no way to drive into the city center from there, so it might be a good counterpart to the tram only bridge.
I have got to learn how to use PO in Skylines. I am pretty good with Blender and I have made some things that I would love to see in Skylines. PO would be the easiest way for me to do that.
To be honest, your city in the Central European style is a mixture of Ivanov, Kostroma, St. Petersburg, Lvov, Ivano-Frankivsk, Krakow, Prague, Vienna, Berlin and Munich. Or maybe that's how it seems to me.
Zdravím. Výborná práce. Musím říct, že Altengrad je můj nejoblíbenější projekt a vždy se těším na nový díl. Smekám, nad skvěle propracovanou formou vývoje města. Tento díl mě však zatím oslovil nejvíce. Nejen u výborné práce nad modelováním mostu, ale především jeho zapracování do města mi přišlo hrozně reálný. Díky za to a těším se na další práce na Altengradu. S pozdravem Lukáš
You may build some military installations. I don't know about Eastern Block in general, but in Lithuania, former USSR, many bigger cities have either an airfield, or military training grounds, near some cities there were top secret bases which look innocent - some buildings in tiny forests and are officially known as repair bases or etc, but in fact have strictly controlled entry and nuclear warhead storage with secret concrete roads from the nearby military airfield (like the ones in Lithuania: Zapalskiai, Šateikiai, Karmėlava or Josvainiai). These bases would have some former farm buildings left or even animals walking arouns, so that western space satellites don't suspect a thing. It could be as a little easter egg, and later in the nineties those bases may be completely abandoned and devastated by metal thieves. In Lithuania these bases were started to build immediately after the war, in the fifties, however the main ones that we know today are from the seventies and eighties. Think about it;)
@@AkruasThank you for reply, may i clarify : when you use surface painter and choose concrete how to you get the nice look of tiles. Or how do you get those nice sidewalks textures?
I know that my comment is kinda out of topic. But I'm really curious about how much CPUs (especially the higher tiers) would affect performances on cities with tons of mods, compared to GPUs. How much of a help will it be when having more RAM and VRAM? I'm aware that this game doesn't really do well with utilizing it's hardware, but still. I feel like this matter is not widely and commonly being discussed outside of Steam and/or Reddit, and I also feel that the discussions in there are not quite that deep about the issue. Can we have a discussion about that? Another side story, I kinda regret that I chose RX 6600 XT (8GB VRAM) over 3060 (12GB VRAM) despite having better performance in other games, but Cities Skylines is kinda my main game for the last 3 years so yeah, kinda crave that extra 4GB of VRAM. I'm also thinking about upgrading my R5 3600 to R7 5800X3D, maybe next year. Think the 96MB L3 cache will help? It baffles me everytime when I see your combo of 1700X + 1060 runs heavily modded cities way smoother than my 3600 + 6600 XT 😅😭
Cinematics are recorded slow and made faster in editing, the game doesn't run like this in real time. From what I can tell, RAM is only relevant during loading, if you don't have enough, the game will crash, but no additional FPS boost from more RAM. Better CPU will allow faster game simulation, but only to a certain point, no noticeable FPS improvements. Even my GPU runs at maybe 50% load, only going to 100% and dropping FPS when increasing resolution, so that's the only place where better graphics card would help. The game just won't use better hardware, period. Just look at livestreams of other builders with top-end rigs.
@@Akruas so it's down to a matter of RAM and VRAM capacity requirements issue? Both my pc and laptop have 32GB of RAM (4x8GB, 3200 MHz on pc, and 2x16GB, 2400 MHz on laptop). They loads cities at least 8 minutes long (installed the game on my nvme drive).
Do you plan some kind of industrial zone? Like steel mills, power plants, factories,... During the communism era there was almost complete isolation in the industrial and trade areas and because of that there was a huge surge in the establishment of the new national factories and industrial production. I live in former mainly industrial and mining city of Ostrava in Czech Republic and here the steel mills and factories were really crammed right in the city center and with that came building of the new infrastructure (train stations, bus stops, streets, roads,...) and huge amount of new houses (half of the Ostrava was built in a few years during a huge building actions, where hundreds and thousands of houses for tens of thousands people arose one by one seamingly almost over night). It would be interesting to see the same changes in Altengrad. Maybe some industrial zone at the edge of the town, with its own allocated panel houses and a special new train stop. That would be my first question. :) And second: Are you planing a construction of the subway? Thank's for the answers and for your amazing original, interesting and educational content I am glad that RUclips had recommended me your channel. :)
Awww.... I was hoping you would keep at least a part of the old bridge intact, like Avignon Bridge, for example. It's sad to see it completely removed. Oh well, what can you expect from a people's democratic regime.

The steel bridge is a work of art, especially considering you made it out of thin air. Exceptional!

Shouldn't the castle hill have more trees on its slopes, looks too empty/naked?

Propably at this point you should use Blender, the work with it could be much more faster and performant than this insane use of PO :D
Not really, the most difficult part is the idea and making sure it fits, not the building process.
PO master at work!🤩
That bridge was indeed engineer pr0n :D
its an aflezing bridge when gets the Train station á upgrade and the railway in general?
You're becoming a bridge connoisseur 🤣
Yay altengrad
It should be Workers and Resources: Soviet Republic tho
Will there Altengrad be in our times later?
Did you save any views from the 30s 40s? So that you can do a look at the city from the same view in each decade later???

During the communism era there was almost complete isolation in the industrial and trade areas and because of that there was a huge surge in the establishment of the new national factories and industrial production.
I live in former mainly industrial and mining city of Ostrava in Czech Republic and here the steel mills and factories were really crammed right in the city center and with that came building of the new infrastructure (train stations, bus stops, streets, roads,...) and huge amount of new houses (half of the Ostrava was built in a few years during a huge building actions, where hundreds and thousands of houses for tens of thousands people arose one by one seamingly almost over night).
It would be interesting to see the same changes in Altengrad. Maybe some industrial zone at the edge of the town, with its own allocated panel houses and a special new train stop.
That would be my first question. :)
And second:
Are you planing a construction of the subway?
Thank's for the answers and for your amazing original, interesting and educational content I am glad that RUclips had recommended me your channel. :)
Yes, industrial expansion is planned for #60, metro not, but underground tram.
@@Akruas Oh I cannot wait then. It's really amazing to see the history of Altengrad unveiling right before my naked eyes. Really fun series.
Hey(( ... what about the stairs ... for pedestrians ... under the bridge ... absolutely needed
is there going to be asphalt roads in the future
Maybe? I think it's likely, but we won't know until he uploads an episode where he does just that.
Its Warsaw ?
Yo, are you fluxtrance because i saw you went inactive on that channel and i think this is your new one
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
:D!
Awww.... I was hoping you would keep at least a part of the old bridge intact, like Avignon Bridge, for example. It's sad to see it completely removed. Oh well, what can you expect from a people's democratic regime.
What do you think about zoo?
