Description

About this episode:

Since the suburb "Lausanne" is located very close to water, I felt really motivated to build a small harbor there. We also plop down buildings like a (fish)market and some industrial warehouses. Furthermore we are going to detail the waterfront areas, as well as the surroundings of the historical museum. With some residential town houses we connect the marina-area nicely with what we built so far.

About the series:

The topic of this series is about creating a quite extensive city-/landscape representing an area somewhere in Central Europe. We start with some smaller villages, located in the valleys of the map and from there we slowly start to work round to the "capital city ". The reason for this approach is quite simple. Since this is only my fourth city in Cities: Skylines, I still need improve my skills quite drastically, especially regarding to what other CS-Youtubers put out there.

The environment we try to represent is strongly influenced by Switzerland, since that’s what I’m most familiar with. Therefore, we’ll need to provide a conclusive mass transit system, with a massive central station in the (not so) near future. We also need to pay attention to the strict policies about preserving the historical townscape.

Author’s comment:

After watching a couple of other marina-builds on Youtube I realized, that the current of the river would be way to strong for a harbor. I'll still leave it there, since we're gonna build a much larger one in the future anyways. I rather apply such insights for future projects, than rebuilding the whole thing :-)
I'd also like to apologize for the (two?) dropouts in the video. I totally forgot to cut these out...
