Starting a New Capital City: Is THIS our Most Beautiful area yet? - Cities Skylines

We're continuing the brand new city in the Cities: Skylines Region of Coniferia! With the densest part of the downtown core being developed in the previous episode, we now focus on developing an even larger area of the Southwestern part of the city's downtown. We initiate with detailing up the Capitol building surroundings with custom paths, lots of planters, trees, and flowers - before developing several blocks in this part of downtown with mixed buildings: residential apartment complexes, commercial and office buildings - a mixture of old and new. We also build important services: the Coniferia Regional Police Headquarters and the Coniferia Regional Hospital - the most specialized and biggest in the region - as well as some regional administrative buildings full of boring office jobs!

- What's the rationale behind this project:
What happens if a washed-up-used-to-be-YouTuber gathers a bunch of "generic" looking assets (though mostly inspired by Australian / Canadian cityscapes) with the hopes of creating a Cities: Skylines region full of towns and cities that both look realistic and are inspired by Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the USA, while at the same time don't really replicate any one particular style? No idea, let's find out.

Join me in this Cities: Skylines modded gameplay / let's play / timelapse series as we expand the region, and build new infrastructure, highways, public transit, industrial pockets, NIMBY-neighbourhoods, sprawling suburbs and bustling downtowns. And of course, use tress excessively to cover up any imperfections!
