The space across from the airport is a prime spot for an entertainment/nightlife/culture space. It is far too loud for residential, the permanent offices would probably like to be closer to the downtown and industrial would need heavy rail projects to make the location viable - but if you put an olympic complex (outdoor stadium, indoor sports hall, exhibition centre) there and dot cafés, nightclubs and stuff like that around, it would become a very profitable sliver of land for the city, because these uses don't care for the noise and don't need heavy rail.
this is so iconic to watch, i would never start watching from the start but because i have followed this series from the day one it has become iconic. the music, voice, everything, it's like a told story of humanity...
The strip of land opposite the airport seems perfect for an "old harbour" type area, like it used to be industrial but has since been gentrified. Could be a fun place to use some of the fancier unique buildings!
could be like one of those american city revitalization projects with bloated, consultant-speak names (like “Pepsi Presents: Citywalk at Harborworks”) that fail 99% of the time haha
I see what ya did there with the intro..... very nice
I do think the a lot of the ground level should be much closer to the waterlevel, everything in the everglades is 1 rainstorm away from flooding.
The Eggerglades looks amazing! Always amazed how great you can make vanilla CS1 look. I think I might have mentioned it in last episode, but the unused land across the airport looks like a good place for a TOD. Some Green Cities highrises and a few shops around an elevated train or metro station and transitioned down to lower apartment buildings further away from the station. I'd also say the waterfront there would be a good location for the aquarium and possibly some other unique buildings you haven't used yet to give something of interest to the neighbourhood.
One of my favorite builds! The water time-lapse was very satisfying to watch. The amount of detail you put into a build always blows my mind. Keep up that amazing work!
Thank you very much!
maybe the eggerglades can be beter if you lower de elevation in the whole area. So it's more shallow and the water is more logical flowing. Also maybe some more dry waterchannels that run down from the mountain?
I was thinking the same about the terrain. Great episode, thanks foi it!
I think the problem would be constant flooding unfortunately
It's not as important for the uninhabited areas and it's maybe more realistic I'd the inhabited/ road are on slightly higher terrain/ dams
I'm really liking CS2, but for me Orchid Bay holds a special place in my heart. Hard to believe it's been 69 episodes of fun. Next time you could do an extended tour maybe for ep. 70? So many cool places in Orchid Bay, and I'm sure we all have our favorites. It's been a fun ride since it began on January 1st. Thank you for continuing this city. I've really enjoyed the weekly episodes, your sense of humor, and your eye for vanilla detail.
Sure, we haven't done a full city tour for a while. I'll see what we can do 🙂
That parcel of land next to the airport could be used for a tourist area - tourism specialisation, unique buildings, hotels, etc. Ideally situated due to its proximity to the airport and downtown.
I'm pretty sure your little hotel will have more than met it's "nature" quota by the time you'd done detailing. All it wants to fulfill that need is trees :)
Why not call that central tourist destination "The Orchid Bayou" - I got proper bayou vibes from the build too (plus it's a great name for a pub).
Nice work as always. I went in a different direction with this space. I’ve used my favourite place as an inspiration. Belfast. Called it Lil Belfast.
It’s in quarters. Queens (University), Titanic (ship building), Cathedral ( mix of shopping malls and unique buildings) and Gael ( mostly residential and some university city)
Egg, as a general aviation pilot getting my degree, (in Florida no less) I can say that that sliver of land in between the mountain and opposite the airport would be PERFECT for the general aviation club, if you put the runway parallel, it would take a lot of inspiration from the airport where I’ve been training, Melbourne International, in Melbourne, Florida. I think it’d be a great piece to complete the area, and also, maybe some light industry, warehouses, and city utilities. Maybe a ferry stop? But one thing that’s gotta be added if you go with this plan, is plenty of areas and viewpoints for aviation geeks to watch and spot the aircraft in and out of both airports, it’s a prime spot for a general aviation paradise!
Space across from the airport: check out the cruise ship port in Malaga. Specifically the peninsula leading to the docks. There's a huge park, as well as a bunch of restaurants and shopping, all surrounded by hotels and condos for travelers. Interesting spot to hang for a few hours.
5:06 "the aviation club hasn't been used either"
8:28 "there's a sliver of land [...] where I've no idea what's going to go here"
🤔🤔🤔
You still have the hotels stuff , so you could terraform into the ocean like they do in Dubai , and make a holiday resort like the Dubai palms and have residence live on there but instead of a palm tree use a orchid design and call it orchid springs resort
I felt that "really?!" around 3:27 😂
This turned out to be a very fun ep with yet another amazing build and a bonus giggly Egg 😊
To tick off a few more uniques, the land across the airport could become a casino/festival area with some leisure and tourism mix
Good shout Star! Thank you 😊
I just built a swamp area on the outskirts of the map, the shallow end of a deep bay, on console. Limited resources, but I’m really happy with the result.
The vanilla game won’t let you place shrubs and bushes under water, but it will let you place them on dry ground, and then flood them. Similarly, the lowest height you can place a foot path bridge over water is significantly higher than the lowest elevation step you can do over dry land.
So basically, I flattened out the area I wanted to turn into a swamp to pretty much even with the water level of the main body of water that the swamp would be connected to, and used a small dirt berm as a breakwater to keep the water out during construction.
Then I placed my “boardwalks” by using the vanilla dirt path, elevated one step on the lowest increment. Then I filled in the swamp area using mostly the Tall Grass Cluster and Lantana bushes from the content creator trees, with the random odd Wild Hedge and Pacific Rhododendron scattered in the mix (manually placed hundreds of these, it was painful lol). All these bushes have really good collision mechanics, so you can get them to overlap quite a bit. I tried using the Ground Covers, but their draw distance on console is so bad, they disappear from view as soon as you zoom out at all.
With everything place, I removed the dirt berm, and then gently levelled the terrain to be roughly one contour line below the surface of the water. All of the bushes move down with the terrain, and the boardwalks stay in place, since they’re an “elevated pathway”. Then very very gently slope the edge of the swamp for the transition to dry land, which is also full of the mixture of bushes, before transitioning to forest.
The water floods into the swamp area, but because all the bushes were placed before the water, they remain in place. They actually die partially, as if they were being polluted, but it actually makes the Long Grass Clusters look kind of like reeds. The little pops of pink from the Rhododendrons is very subtle, but you can still see it through the surface of the water, and it makes the swamp feel more alive. The boardwalks sit perfectly a couple feet above the surface of the water.
The area I did was a fraction of the size of the Eggerglades, but I was pretty proud of myself for coming up with the technique (I’m sure others have done it before me though), and am extremely pleased with the results, given the limitations of console. Would love to see you give it a try, in a smaller area of Orchid Bay, or even Thessia. Sorry for the long write-up lol.
Something tells me the academic library would do well in the blank space on the way to eggerglades. Some kind of forested academic retreat space with some quiet neighborhoods close to downtown might be fun
The little land strip could be a transport museum- for trains planes and boats throughout time
I was just pretty close to the everglades at a primate research center. It was bizarre how remote this place was but at the same time made total sense. The last 6 miles to the facility was dirt road, with farming all around. Could be a cool idea
super cool idea! And that view from the temple was amazing!!!
Cletus and Billy Joel? You leave the Piano Man out of your everglades fantasies 😂
Great episode! Haven’t seen anything like this before 👍
As for a piece of land across the airport I was thinking it’s a great spot for some Casino district 🎰. Out of the city, but still has a great access for all the tourists 😎 you can use a lot of hotels or other uniques there as well
Great build Egg! I went a different route here and created a couple of small towns all centrally connected in the middle so to speak. Thanks for keeping the CS1 videos going! 💙
Maybe the aviation club can go in that space beside the international airport. Can I also say the big lodge cabin hotel from H&R could be nice somewhere in the swamp. Keep up the great work!!!
Awesome build! I really like the waterfall, especially with it having separate falls coming down the mountain. It really adds some character. And rocks! I love me some rocks.
As for that little strip of land by the airport, I think a small hotel/resort district would be a good addition. A place for those folks who are stuck in Orchid Bay for a layover to stay, you know? (And maybe stay for longer, lol.)
This video is a strong reminder for myself that I need to be braver when it comes to terraforming. I get so spooked by later regretting my choices.
Fantastic and unique build, as always OE. Thanks for the inspo!
Fun episode and super creative! I love nature reserves anyway. We have a few around here and it's a lot of trees and trails with some ranger cabins and such also. Rangers are a must when part of it is a Gorge and people continually get hurt or lost. Not sure about everglades type places, just mountains. Really cool build again!! 🤩
Loved the episode. For the little strip of land I would keep it simple, and just like the entrances of most National Parks that I have been to there are basic services: a general store to get supplies (propane, firewood, ice, beer, ciggies, brandy), and a gas station, and a roadside motel.
Yet another great build...
When we went there the Everglades had these "hammocks" that were like little tree islands slightly higher than the reeds and such.
Love the waterfall feature.
Terrain tools are so difficult for me to master. Love Mondays with Egg.😊
Fantastic! Noted swamp lover Billy Joel would be proud
The time lapse of the water filling up was so satisfying. This was a fun episode OE!
That mountain by the airport could host some vineyards. Something like the Douro valley (where Port wine is produced).
Eggergrapes Valley or Tawny Port could be the name of the district.
Tho I don’t know how that kinda of design would look in game.
Thanks Egg. My fav series by far! Thanks for the CS1 content. Only suggestion on the glades is to have some fire watch towers for the visitors to spot some wildlife whilst walking around the park 😎
You may add a cable car service from the temple complex to the national park given that they are close enough on the map!
The strip of land facing the airport seems really good for the Aquarium and a couple of hotels, honestly. Maybe with other tourism / old town vibes. Nothing super-built up.
Eggerglades was a great way to use that space. Loved your choice of music too.
Definitely came out well. And so very different. Looks amazing
All I can think of for the area opposite the airport on the road towards the eggerglades is some sort of trailer park-esque area on the way out into the boonies. Imagine it'll be hard in vanilla but low income vibes feel sort of relevant. The sort of thing people want to gentrify because it is near the airport and vibes but also it is much nearer the swamp than the city so there isn't actually any real desirability there
This was such a nice (😂) episode! A great way to cover vast amounts of space. A bold suggestion but with that many tress you could have a small forestry industrial area nearby?
I would say you should add a fishing route there , itll be aesthetically pleasing , plus fishing industry will provide jobs for people there!
A Hippy Camp could be fun in the empty space
Nice!
Really unique build and had lot's of fun watching!!
Thanks a ton Malay! ❤️
I admit I was skeptical of this swamp idea, but it turned out great!
The respect i have for you exceeds the treecount of this build
It would be cool if you attempted to make a ski/mountain bike resort on one of the many mountain on the map. The cable car would work well for a lift and wooden loges for the buildings. I’ve never seen anyone attempt this in vanilla
I'll suggest it again for that area by the airport, or anywhere else!
Im pretty sure you haven't used the Lemonade Factory yet. In one of my builds, I used it as the basis for a private Green development.
Basically my lore idea is that Yaxu (the name of the company on the factory) funded a sustainable living neighbourhood for their factory workers.
I used Green Cities Low-Dens Residential and Commercial, with a Vertical Farm and 2 smaller High-Dens towers as the height pop in the area.
12:20 has me rolling lol
first of all, great build and idea! i was thinking that as the trees have all been planted now whether you could drop the 'land' level down a contour line or two that would cause it to flood periodically and really feel swampy. Obviously you couldn't do that for the areas with buildings but for the other areas it may be a good look! keep up the great work bud!
Keep the content rolling , been watching this series since day one. ty
Legend, appreciate ya bro!
Very awesome build!! I especially love that waterfall you had built! If you were going to make a forest brush for the Eggerglades, I would recommend adding a bunch of that tall grass because I’m pretty sure that there’s lots of that in the actual Everglades.
Less than 20 seconds in and already episode 69 is going to be nice 😂
Couldn't resist mate
For the sliver of land, maybe a small tourist town like you were saying with the roadside motel but expand some sunset harbor assets with some other choice hotels and maybe throw in a nightlife vibe with the let go of leisure policy.
How I see it OE, the strip of land near the airport, I think a resort complex would be nice, it's both close to the airport and multiple tourist locations(including Eggerglades) as well as the downtown
for that strip of road opposite the airport, maybe put a few viewing platforms wth the road side motel
Looks like the eggaglades have their own species of aquatic deer!
The stuff of nightmares!
I think a cool thing between the airport and the national park could be a small older port town. the port town was established before the main port near the military base. i think it would be cool to include some older assets and some nice mansions
Prison in build needed.
Old industry harbor or old industry converted homes area beside the air port. Maybe a Brooklyn house and a abandoned hospital area for ghost, Sanitarium.
Looking good...I'm so enjoying watching this series of Cities Skylines 1 for so many reasons not least is because your talented city design and the most is so many choices with so many assets and awesome mod's which makes this game look and play so incredible good. Choices is the spice of life and one day I hope Cities Skylines 2 will be as spicy as Cities Skylines 1. But until that day comes I'm going to keep enjoying you design and build some of the best city's this game can make. So thank's Egg Man for everything you do to keep us entertained and inspired. Please keep on keeping on and I promise to keep coming back for more and sharing your video's with as many people as I possibly can because you definitely deserve it...💯👍💯
Hero ❤ super kind mate, thank you!
Cool to see youve branched out to Planet Zoo as well 👍
Eggcellent Nature Reserve Build Man. It looks absolutely stunning. Just one Thing: Can you put Rocks in the Riverbed here and there to make it look even better? I don't even know if it's possible to put Rocks or even some Trees in Water but it's worth a Try right? 😊
amazing build, to be honest, i would add some more waterfalls down the mountains around the eggerglades, to fit this water vibes
It would be a perfect place to use the helicopter transport. kinda like private tour thinggy
For the sliver of land beside the river you could do some Miami style homes with the docks out the back! Mid century modern or green cities spaced out and detailed with pier assets to create the docks!
The carnivorous deer was in the water having a little gator snack.
Lol only in Orchid Bay can a Deer snack on a Gator lol
there’s more elevation change on these waterways alone than in the entire state of florida! (typed this as a joke, then realized it’s prob true haha)
Egg is an artist when it comes to cities skylines 😍
Very *nice* build today, OE. I enjoyed it.
Is there a plan to integrate a Space Center into Orchid Bay? Not sure where but something similar to Kennedy SC would be cool in this map setting.
Yes there is! Likely next episode 😊
Have the rock police been called? 👀 lol. I think it looks great, big rocks and all!
Simply amazing, I wanna live there😊or at least have a cabin to get away from city life
For the land across from the airport maybe a combined convention and concert area?
as a former floridan i can confirm that is exactly what happens in the everglades. 😆😆😆
It might be hard to land the right asset, but the Eggerlades park center could really use a general store. Someone’s got to sell ice, sodas and souvenirs.
Don't know how it'll look but, maybe you could add some kind of helicopter route above the park so people (if they pay) can have an awesome and exclusive bird-eye-view of the park
they've doubled down on weird decisions in 2
This was a NICE episode!!
I think the land near the airport should be a mix between farming (but not heavy farming, more like for diversity) with some zones for people to watch the planes land and take off. Kinda like we have near the airport in Barcelona
Edit: if it's easier, it's called "parc del delta del Llobregat"
is it overgrowth because it's over the ground? isn't it undergrowth because it's under the canopy?
The eternal question
I’d save the aviation club for a more rural airport vibe maybe out near some farms so the farmers also have spaces for their crop dusters to take off and be stored.
Look good, nicely done 👍
good morning OE and everyone!
A motel / gas station would be good for the end of the national highway, sort of a mini extremely rural settlement center....
That campfire seems a bit... extreme. Is there a tiki bar in that cabin?
The space across från the airport could be somewhat of a turisty marina, couple of hotels and some piers maybe?
always love the ideas and how some of your ideas come to life. Never would have though of how you build the reserve.... but am I the only one that responded to your first comment with "69 Dude!" ...?
If only there was a Swamp Thing asset to sneak in there :D
Thanks!
Thanks for dono mate! Appreciate ya 🙏
Hear me out... Cable Car from temple to Nature Reserve museum, and an express bus route from the airport to the museum and back.
I'm wondering if you thought of building the space industry area and Prison area yet?
To come 😁
Would a cable car or something work from the temple to Eggerglades or to the opposite end by the airport as a beach side posh retreat with jetties and piers for private residents
How did you connect electricity line to this park?
We are playing with 81 tiles on this map, within that mod is an option to remove the need for pipes and powerlines to help save the node count, both of these options are enabled
Amazing
You should make a casino in the land next to the airport
oh this, this is beauty
Waiting for those large hotel build.............
A ferry route that stops in the swamp is in order
Is there an Orchid Bay version of Florida man that lives here ?
12:21 boys at daytime be like...
More of a riverlands than the everglades, but I still love it. Limitation of the engine and all
