Tarkusian Cities Update 54 - "I'll Be The Roundabout"

Well, as mentioned in my welcome post, this will be the new home for the "Simtropolis Edition" of Tarkusian Cities, my City Journal/Mayor's Diary.  There's a few updates that haven't migrated over here yet, so I figured I'd catch you all up, beginning with Update 54, which takes place in the northern suburbs of the City of Lenox.  (The previous 53 and the various "teasers" interspersed between them can be found in the Archive in the new CJ section.)

First off, here's a roadmap of the city tile where downtown Lenox is situated.  This update will focus on the area in the northeast corner, by Maridia Way, an area generically referred as "North Lenox" by locals.  It is a relatively well-off area, near the Lenox Woods Golf Course (at the corner of Brinstar and Maridia). 




Maridia Way is also horribly congested, as you'll see in these pics.

Looking south toward the golf course, just west of the Brinstar intersection.



Looking north at the northern edge of the course.  You can see the traffic just stacking up.



Looking south at a North Lenox neighborhood.



Looking north out of the neighborhood toward the Maridia Way/Wheatstone Terrace roundabout.  As you can see, North Lenox has a small commercial district, containing a La-Z-Boy Furniture Gallery.  There is also a grocery store just to the east.



Finally, a couple close-ups of the Maridia/Wheatstone roundabout, both facing east.





That does it for this latest update.  I'll be back with more shortly.
