Happy birthday Maher!! Cheers for another trip around the sun! Loved the build as always. I think Orchid Bay is my favorite of all the builds. Living in Tucson, I loved ILOS too! You should name the monorail: The Maher Mainline!
I haven't gotten CS2 yet. I'm not sure my laptop can handle it, and I don't want to get aucked in to the buying frenzy as DLC come out, so I'm really really glad CS1 content is continuing.
Chicago resident here, don’t mean to be that guy but it’s Lake Shore Drive. I just figured you would want to know. You have the most masterful builds dude. Always taking the time to really check your angles in time lapses, always makes me smile as it reminds me of an artist closing one eye and sticking his thumb out to check his work.
Biffa found you can move the outside node further in to stop the problem. Also allows the passenger crowds to board the trains. Don't forget to decorate the orginal college to level 5.
Love those long views with streets and monorails etc!! It's just so cool!! I cannot think of a name for the uni since I saw Strawberry. Now I have the Beatles on my mind with Strawberry Fields 😂 Not so sure that's what you are looking for. Great build again. I surely hope you do not give up CS1 for a long time. It's just got so many things you can use (like props), that make all the difference in the world. I'm sure CS2 will have it eventually but I enjoy watching you decorate with them!!🤩
Keep Mondays for CS1! This campus area was a great idea for over there! The Brooklyn buildings really add a different feel to the build, keep up that amazing work! Can't wait to see what you build next.
Great episode sir! A man after my own heart! As a person who lives near Chicago the build came out great! Most people still call dusable lake shore drive either lsd or the drive which is one of the most beautiful scenery for me!!!
This is still my favourite series - of both Cities 1 and 2! Love the monorail - it's a mode that makes sense with the long line and all the bike routes and roads it has to cross. Once Orchid Bay is finished, I'd love to see a Cities 1 massive transit hub focused build! Maybe even pick up some funicular railways from the workshop. A very green map would be lovely. Perhaps having the goal of running all the possible transit modes on one map with all of them running into hubs (including a random blimp line with a story behind why it exists). There's so much more detail with Cities 1. (Though I've yet to see a wheelchair user as a cim.)
The Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago, that you're using as a guide, is near the University of Chicago. Chicago is also known as Chi-town. Not sure if you're into anagrams, but the new university could be University of Chi-Borday, or something like that.
Orchid bay is amazing I do hope you continue as long as you can! Also for the BnR I’ve used I think 1x3 to make brick townhomes in medium density areas 🏠
It might be cool, once you start running out of space, is doing a video or two of meaningful densification in some areas of the map, or adding simple suburban developments or parks. Like I can definitely see just some windy suburban streets coming off the road you put over the highway in the timelapse! Maybe it is something better for a stream, but it would be cool to see.
That baseball park peninsula is great! Can’t remember if you’ve used the Central Park unique but that would look amazing with this campus! Also would love to see the old railway line alignment replaced with something like a bike path/trail to the middle of nowhere
A little critique as a Chicagoans. The highway next to the lake is a big blight all the way up and down. You're def taking the perspective of the southern portion particularly Hyde Park which is cool. But a metro in place of the highway would be very very cool!
Love this series and Thessia :). Say it all the time amazing attention to detailing and time taken. Unlike me where i just put anything anywhere 😅 Keep it up ❤
Let's go, more CS1! I've not been able to get into CS2 at all yet, even though I expect your builds there are as great as these. And boy, what a build you had for us this time!
I like Science Town as the name. If it fits it sits! Also another commentator called it PPU (Purple People University) which is great, and amusing to hear the Scottish foreign exchange students saying it.
At least one thing you can do to control intercity train traffic; with access to all 81 tiles, what I do is turn the "accept intercity trains function" *OFF* for *all my stations*, and you can draw in your own lines connecting to the edge of the map. This allows you to have one intercity train line that connects one outside connection to one or two hubs in the center of your city, then run out to a *different* outside connection, and then run back the same way, and it allows you to control exactly how many (passenger) intercity trains are running to each of your connections--if a lot of those intercity trains are running empty, cutting that number of intercity trains that are running is extremely helpful. And depending on which hubs/how many stops you have them make, the intercity trains can also take some strain off your other trains, too.
Love still having CS1 content! Whilst looking at Chicago, look a little north at Milwaukee.. Currently using it as inspiration for my CS1 build. 👍 Keep both your CS1 builds going please bud 🙏
The baseball field with the path is very close to another area along lake shore drive. It’s a ball field, two tennis courts with a golf small course of all things. Really awesome and though you don’t have a proper golf course, maybe the driving range could fit in? Google earth would explain it better then I could. Lol.
With the trains you may have to build a lot of 1 way tracks for the area near the university. Imperatur did this with his train networks. I do it when I have freight and passengers on the main in and out of the train lines. Made a big difference.
Another great video Egg! My only comment would be to move the monorail tie-in down to where the road segment transitions to the median road. It just looks odd that the road transitions and the rail doesn't come in till two segments later.
Chicago is a beautiful city, especially the lakefront. It also has the best Tavern style pizza and Italian beef sandwiches. Deep dish pizza is ok but tavern style is so much better.
The new part of town the monorail runs into has to be called North Haverbrook or Ogdenville, you know, from that episode of the Simpsons. MONORAILLLLLL!!!!
There is simply too much cargo traffic to outside connections. I deleted the trainwarehouse and cargo train station at Sharon's Factory and added a train to cargoship terminal nearby.
I am actually studying at a the "Franckesche Stiftungen". A over 300 year old place to teach and study about teaching itself. Translated it would be something like "Francke Institute". It has so much history that you could call it a living museum because we still use it for its original purpose. How about the name "Francke Institute of Education"?
I enjoy this more than cs2! alot. I know it needs views and PR, and many Big CS youtubers have to do some gameplay with it. But this is still my favorite at the moment! Especially orchid Bay
It’s funny since the university of Chicago is also next to the museum of science and industry in Chicago. maybe you can add something to pay homage to the university by calling it the university of eggago?
this introsong sounds so familiar to me, but i dont know what it is called. Can you tell me please, what song this is? Thank you :) Anyway I love this video sooo much
I can't even think about cs2 until its fully optimized. (my potato could never!) so i really hope you all keep making at least a little cs1 content. :)
I'm not good at naming areas, but that hedge outline looks like the DOOM logo. Maybe the school team can be The Demons and the area name can play off that?
8:15 Train-Monorail Hub! *gestures wildly* Interconnectivity! Integrated local transit! S P I C E! 16:12 I do seem to recall you being fond of 3-deep zoning for B&Q stuff 🤔 36:00 I'm not even in the gradient police and I find that one concerning 😬
Please continue with Orchid Bay. We love it and will always love it
It's not going anywhere just yet 😁
Happy birthday Maher!! Cheers for another trip around the sun!
Loved the build as always. I think Orchid Bay is my favorite of all the builds. Living in Tucson, I loved ILOS too!
You should name the monorail: The Maher Mainline!
I love Orchid Bay. She just keeps getting more and more beautiful. So glad we still get to visit her.
Yay my fav series! Thanks for keeping this series alive even with CS2 out… much appreciated!!
Thanks for supporting it 😁

Also Chicago Resident, if you are a city planner DO NOT BUILD A HIGHWAY ON THE LAKEFRONT!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAHER!!!

Happy B-day Maher !
It's actually nice to see some vanilla CS1 spices while checking out CS2 get updated. Orchid Bay is always a good vibe to riff off of.
As much hype there is about CS1 I must thank you for keeping the CS1 community happy by continuing the series and it is much appreciated ❤
You heard the man. If you arent subscribed please do it now! We want to get this man to 100k before the year ends
The monorail's transition onto the road might look less harsh if you move it back to where the 4-lane road transitions to the smaller industrial road.
Love those long views with streets and monorails etc!! It's just so cool!! I cannot think of a name for the uni since I saw Strawberry. Now I have the Beatles on my mind with Strawberry Fields 😂 Not so sure that's what you are looking for. Great build again. I surely hope you do not give up CS1 for a long time. It's just got so many things you can use (like props), that make all the difference in the world. I'm sure CS2 will have it eventually but I enjoy watching you decorate with them!!🤩
I binge watched this series within 1 month and finally got a new video to watch ❤
Hooe you enjoyed the binge, Sam!
The Sharon Institute of Let Me Speak to your Manager.
Or, The Sue School of Pseudo Science 👌
Loving that this City keeps expanding - I do love CS1.
Thanks Paul!
Campus name idea! -The Blue Bay Art Institution. Also great video OE, keep up the good work!
happy birthday dude!
Fun and inspiring build as always! Happy Birthday Maher! 🎂🎂🎂
Keep Mondays for CS1! This campus area was a great idea for over there! The Brooklyn buildings really add a different feel to the build, keep up that amazing work! Can't wait to see what you build next.

Great build, pleased you're continuing Orchid Bay. Could I suggest Lotus Institute as a name?
Orchid bay is amazing I do hope you continue as long as you can! Also for the BnR I’ve used I think 1x3 to make brick townhomes in medium density areas 🏠
super fun to watch, and I really loved that digression around looking for buses at the train stations!!!
It might be cool, once you start running out of space, is doing a video or two of meaningful densification in some areas of the map, or adding simple suburban developments or parks. Like I can definitely see just some windy suburban streets coming off the road you put over the highway in the timelapse! Maybe it is something better for a stream, but it would be cool to see.
happy birthday maher
Ochrid bay more like the gem of CS1 and the best series I’ve watch
30:36 ah yes, that's the one who make me suffer when I play your safegame 😂
That baseball park peninsula is great! Can’t remember if you’ve used the Central Park unique but that would look amazing with this campus! Also would love to see the old railway line alignment replaced with something like a bike path/trail to the middle of nowhere
Cheers Ben! We'll defo use that old rail line path for something!
A little critique as a Chicagoans. The highway next to the lake is a big blight all the way up and down. You're def taking the perspective of the southern portion particularly Hyde Park which is cool. But a metro in place of the highway would be very very cool!
Loving the Chicago inspired waterfront build today!
Love this series and Thessia :). Say it all the time amazing attention to detailing and time taken. Unlike me where i just put anything anywhere 😅 Keep it up ❤
I'm so happy Orchid Bay on my birthday, making it such a great day. Love this one.
Happy Birthday Clare!!
I love your music choice!
Prepare to Exams!! This will never grow old! Great video as always Egg!
perfect purple people mover 🤭 you're inspiring! thank you for awesome content 👍
Trains are screwed, nuclear power plant is flooding ! Oh well, I’m here to build a bus line and a bus line I shall build 😂
Looking forward to checking out more Orchid Bay during my lunch today!
Enjoy Chris! Thanks for watching bro!
Please do not stop with the cities 1 videos. This game is so much better than its predecessor
Let's go, more CS1! I've not been able to get into CS2 at all yet, even though I expect your builds there are as great as these. And boy, what a build you had for us this time!
Let's be honest-monorail junctions don't make a lot of sense, do they? They're more like roller coasters than trains
Orchid Bay is my favourite city. I loved the sightlines of the cims playing tennis as the train went past.
Bro Always Fails to Make A Bad Video💀
so true
I agree. If he tried to make a bad video it would just be too good
So ture
Like a parody vid of terrible assets or awful zoning or building techniques 😂
True
Another new favorite vibe: monorail line along a long stretch of sparsely developed coastline . I'm always here for CS1.
I like Science Town as the name. If it fits it sits! Also another commentator called it PPU (Purple People University) which is great, and amusing to hear the Scottish foreign exchange students saying it.

great build though!
yay! Orchid bay is here
Ah yes, Darkwave Ben, the hero Orchid Bay deserves

Orchid Bay 💜 killer work as always, Mr Egg!
This metro-mono-train hub is the best part of Orchid bay for me.
The baseball field with the path is very close to another area along lake shore drive. It’s a ball field, two tennis courts with a golf small course of all things. Really awesome and though you don’t have a proper golf course, maybe the driving range could fit in? Google earth would explain it better then I could. Lol.

Amazing vid as always egg, it’s always such a pleasure to see that you’ve uploaded !! 👍
Thank you mate!
@@OVERCHARGEDEGG I don’t really mean to be annoying by replying to your reply, but I think that it’s awesome that I got a reply from you man!

MONORAILLLLLL!!!!
There is simply too much cargo traffic to outside connections. I deleted the trainwarehouse and cargo train station at Sharon's Factory and added a train to cargoship terminal nearby.
Had to pause and confirm that I wasn't watching another skyrim video in background.
Love me some Orchid Bay, tho Noob Yolk will always be my number 1! 💙
I am actually studying at a the "Franckesche Stiftungen". A over 300 year old place to teach and study about teaching itself. Translated it would be something like "Francke Institute".

Great video as always Egg!
i've never been this early but i LOVE it! my favorite city ❤
If we've already opened up 81 tiles I think it's more than fair to add in mods to help keep this city going (to create more outside connections, etc.)
I enjoy this more than cs2! alot. I know it needs views and PR, and many Big CS youtubers have to do some gameplay with it.
But this is still my favorite at the moment! Especially orchid Bay
Still loving the CS1 content, egg!
1:22 - Cursed lane math. 1 lane road. 1 lane comes out. Result: 2 lanes ☠☠
Orchid Bay should be nominated Condé Nast Traveller's Award for best city in the world ;-)
You can't have a town devoted to science and not call it Eureka!
Campus name? ppu- purple people university
Pretentious patriarch proclaims port precinct passengers have Perfect Purple People Mover
Disappointed Districrers Decry Dearth of Dyed Denizens
Oooh Skyrim music:3
I was wondering if it should be the "hippocampus" for medical studies?
It’s funny since the university of Chicago is also next to the museum of science and industry in Chicago. maybe you can add something to pay homage to the university by calling it the university of eggago?
this introsong sounds so familiar to me, but i dont know what it is called. Can you tell me please, what song this is? Thank you :) Anyway I love this video sooo much
Skyrim music mate 😌 thank you!
@@OVERCHARGEDEGG Thank you. I know that ive heard this song, but didnt know when and in which case :D
Lakeshore Drive, Egg. It's Lakeshore Drive.
i really miss these detailling options in vanilla in CS 2 :(cities look so much better, when they are detailed
Perfect Purple Pedestrian Passage Progressor ...
not bad , could try harder !
I can't even think about cs2 until its fully optimized. (my potato could never!) so i really hope you all keep making at least a little cs1 content. :)
Science town = Eureka, I mean Eggureka....
It's a one line, one rail, perfect purple people mover
Nova Ovum Institute of Science
I'm not good at naming areas, but that hedge outline looks like the DOOM logo. Maybe the school team can be The Demons and the area name can play off that?
Love the Skyrim music.
Yes please.
How about the purple people sector
8:15 Train-Monorail Hub! *gestures wildly* Interconnectivity! Integrated local transit! S P I C E!

❤ great build
BTW, Barack Obama also lives in this neighborhood - Hyde Park.
Perfect Purple People Pusher Platform
Is that the Skyrim soundtrack in the background?
It is
Surely the Science Centre is the Carnivorous Deer Research Centre.
Good ole CS! What about the Orchid Bay Research Institute (OBRI) ❤❤
