Big Population Boom in a city that can't handle it | Cities Skylines 2

It’s awesome to think about that this city was the first I saw build in CS2 and it’s still alive and flourishing

Time flies!

You know what I would love to see, a Beverly Hills kind of district in the mountains looking over the city. I think that would look really cool with all those expensive homes!

[@charlesngwenya1586]

That’s a good idea. Having one of the expensive suburb or estate at the outskirts of the city on the mountain will be a perfect idea.

Section 8 is the designation for public housing assistance in the US. Maybe you are confusing with the movie District 9?

[@SaltyPO]

google "section 9 housing"

[@PYri9056]

They pay you to live in "section 9" that's how public it is 😎

[@DiegoCisbani]

With mods and the new detailer update I think you can properly revamp the central park. I mean, having a cemetery in the center of the city was ok for the beginning, but now I think it needs to be redone. If not redo, at least you could remove the headstones....

[@BluedIsDaBest]

this would be the second time he would be revamping the park🤣

[@izzatsufian2796]

Riverview Metropolis, the largest city in Infrastructurist Cities Skylines II and the view is incredibly amazing❤❤❤

[@maycherryblossoms]

Infra, I think we need a massive public transit do-over of the entire city and build. maybe using the new elevated metro stations and a new subway metro system for the main island there :)

[@TheJorsy]

Infra, for the public-housing-ish medium density area you could put old low height buildings (row housing) on the bottom, and newly built commercial and/or office or residential on top. Like a newly built extension of the old existing buildings.

[@JdohilGENSHIN]

Discovered your channel recently, its been so interesting to see you expand this city! Its looking great!! 👍👍 Cant wait to see you add more

[@Infrastructurist]

Welcome aboard! And thank you!

[@charlieboozer82]

Manhattan-esque city with no rapid transit metro system, subway nor elevated? Strange.

I think he mentioned in a previous episode that he wanted to keep most of the civilians on the surface to show the hustle and bustle of the city

[@flamingoLake]

@@willking25good things metros can go on the surface

[@willking25]

@@flamingoLakeI forgot about those, would be cool to see a couple metro lines snaking in between the high rises

[@vostok8589]

The building could be a "historic" city hall that now serves as a the city's historical society, and you could arbitrarily designate a more modern looking office building as the "new" city hall.

[@willtaillon1230]

with how dense the city is getting you should probably think about getting a metro/ subway system at some point

[@jonathanvandenklaassenvrie4022]

I love it! I also would love to see a video where you just ride around in 1st person view, looking at the city like a passenger would. Thanks for the video!

[@mattr0103]

re: old public housing block near Palmer Glade - developer comes in, buys the entire complex (basically the full city block) from the city, promises to redevelop it into more housing, including more affordable housing, but back pedals and redevelops the whole thing into a big, shiny, glitzy new luxury high-rise complex. Super scandalous... we love some good scandals 😁

[@נמרודכשדן]

great video my guy. maybe add trams (or generally more public transport) to new Chelsea

[@Phayvour_ICT]

Dear Infrastructurist, This is a heartfelt request and it's concerning the University development. Instead of building one single campus, can you make it like campuses within a campus? Like for example a large designated land area and in that land area different types of university campuses from medical to technical to the normal university campus. I hope I'll be acknowledged. Thank you ❤

[@yukuzakymomonosuke]

thank you wonderful work!! you're by far the best cities skyline's youtuber

[@AITF045]

Watching these videos always makes me want to get better at cities. The building diversity you have is so nice, and it’s something I struggle with. I think I need to slow don a bit and spend more time on individual blocks

[@justarandomperson1326]

In the next couple episodes you should create a metro system using the new assets and elevated tracks

[@S-54_]

I think some more parkings for the city hall Is needed , you can try to make a custom underground parking

[@ma-eu-ch8944]

Hey! Now that you have the first person mode pls use it in every episode because it's so realistic to look the buildings tha you build in first person like a real human ❤❤❤

[@fraponese]

The historic building could be the municipal building from when the city was very young. As the city grew and those offices moved to larger more modern buildings, the Old City Hall could be repurposed as an historic landmark and museum about the history of Riverview.

[@Marvin-sj9lr]

Maybe with a statue or similar at the little plaza in front of it, representing some important person from the city´s history.

[@j.alvrez]

i think what this metro area needs is entertainment. a stadium or arena. maybe even a couple of theaters or music halls, if possible. im not sure what kind of buildings are in this game or what kind of buildings you can download, but i would say that this city is ready for something like that. i can see that definitely ramping up tourism, and hotel business

[@GustavoCohen-fh9rc]

Suggestions: - more offices in downtown - golf stuff in the suburbs - two big ass hospitals near each other (competition) - urban university - shoreline park - theme park

I feel like the most unrealistic thing about this city is the grid. It’s very inconsistent whereas every NA city has a consistent historical grid with every block having virtually the same dimensions.

[@TheJorsy]

Well, if you look at the eastern coast, there are cities like Boston, Providence or Trenton that don't have a super-griddy downton.

[@jumpywizard7665]

@@TheJorsyyes but this build is supposed to be based in Colorado. Also, outside of Boston’s north end and downtown, it’s a grid. Providence also has a grid, the blocks are just bigger and feature alleyways. Trenton also has a grid, or whatever’s left of it since it was mostly destroyed by the US-1, NJ-29/129, the Lincoln hwy, the huge government offices/parking lots by the Delaware and CURE arena. You can kinda see the remnants of it east of Lincoln hwy.

[@denimjeanz916]

I use a pathway to attach to another city. Basically taxis roll in, I have subway and train stations as they walk in. Takes them to populated areas or bus stations. Getting 48,000 an hour. Highway connects to industrial and commercial. I’m at 417,000 pop and only two spots get traffic jams so far. Industrial areas I make exits to city at build ends every 5 blocks. Keeps traffic flowing out.

[@djbavel-i9h]

The historic building could be like a sort of courthouse

Hi! I'm really enjoying your work, here since early days of cities II, also I think it would be interesting to see an in depth episode of the asset manager.

[@boznia456]

great work like always man love the series. would love to see you make a huge quarry in the mountains somewhere. lets go rural! with a small town connected by the quary, like a mining city. Imagine the possibilities with the new assets. a massive quarry spiraling down, with construction equipment, structures, and facilities. A small town connected to it, a rural area up in the moutains for residences. Maybe even some cabins in really dense forest area. lets go rural! Also, would love to see a massive walkable pier/massive shoreline kinda like you see in Toronto. thrhoghout the downtown area, the shoreline is just sloping downwards. would be crazy if you do a massive revamp of the cities shorelines, and just impliment walkable pathes, peirs, small shops, etc.

[@redcadet]

i took a break from cities skylines for a few months and i needed to watch some cs2 videos to get back into the flow. this is perfect! love your vids

[@LambBoy98]

You should definitely give the mod ‘realistic trips’ a try! Like the old rush hour mod, it makes the cims realistically go to work, school, shopping etc. The city feels so alive with waves of heavy car and pedestrian traffic. Looks realistic.

[@eco3337]

Infrastructurist, CPP has many good things to say about you and fan boy’d over your detailing skills.

[@alexhentschel1080]

You should add some dirt/stain decals to the city hall to make it look older

[@Jacob4277]

Challenge: a city with region inspired zones. Inspired by your Colorado town short. Would be awesome if you took inspiration from iconic streets and phase districts into one another. For example: Colorado moulds into a New Orleans style district and a Florida rural to Miami and so on. Using google earth and reference photos in the videos with dedicated episodes will be so engaging and help keep it coherent. The City would be awesome.

[@graygarrard3444]

This city looks a lot like Pittsburgh Pennsylvania!!!

[@NO_BS_ME_LIKE]

Yay! Much better density transitions! Cheers! Also great music, as always!

[@theevilmoppet]

It would probably be pretty tough to implement, but at some point I’d love to see colossal order take on BRT, biking, and street median tram stops. The streets right now tend to look a bit monotonous from above because there’s only really one kind of alternate lane (bus) and literally nothing you can do that fundamentally changes the appearance of the street the way BRT or other street median station transit does.

[@flamingoLake]

There is mod gonna do that

[@tommeakin1732]

When it comes to assets, one thing that CO should be looking at is a healthy set of service assets that are small, but can easily be blended together, as the player likes, to create unique buildings. It'd kind of help if they integrated Anarchy into the game for that

[@Unicornsnot9]

You’d think after a population decline that almost wrecked the city, a population boom would be nice 😂 guess you can’t catch a break (but that means more videos for us 😁❤️)

The city hall should be the court house or DMV or both. It could also be the building where all of the County services are!

[@simonlees2848]

Don't be afraid of schools looking the same, where I grew up a large number of schools were either built or rebuilt in the 60s to 70s and they all look basically the same.

[@Everie]

You seem to never read my comments, but I'll say it anyways. You should add a small elementary school for every 3 districts and a small high school for every 6 districts, given the density of RMA. I've done this for my city (80k population) and it worked surprisingly well, and didn't crumble my economics (it actually brought me to the green)

You should try to build a major arena for a pro sports team ( basketball / hockey ) on one of the sister islands. Riverview Mountaineers would be a cool name too.

[@marianodn]

The mountains needs to be fixed haha...I wonder what you could do with new tools for mountains and nature places. Maybe you could do a natural reserve or something like that

[@hofn3000]

Maybe your building is an old nature museum originated very long ago by a prominent science society. Just like at the Senckenberg in Frankfurt you could place some dino sculptures in the surrounding area ❤
