Chicago Illinois, recreated 1:1 in Cities Skylines

The magnificent city of Chicago Illinois recreated 1:1 in Cities Skylines. In this project I make two disclaimers, 1, O'Hare Intl airport is moved closer to the city to fit it in using this scale, 2, the legendary Meiggs Field is included because I fell in love with this city from playing MS Flight Simulator which traditionally started with you sitting on the runway at this airport.

This is insanely accurate to the actual city I never thought people could do this in cities skylines! Your so underrated you deserve 1M subs for all your hard work, and I wonder if you got mods for like Franklin Center, and The Legacy and the Prudential Center and stuff?
Anyway this is great and I love this

Thank you so much for your kind words. I was able to find quite a bit on the workshop as there are many Chicago assets, if I couldn't find the exact asset I was able to find something close or modify stuff using the Procedural Objects mod. Anyway, thanks again for the message.

I love that you added meigs field

[@jetjunky6760]

Thanks, I used to play MS Flight Simulator and it always started there, loved flying around Chicago :)

Wow starting to look at some of your other builds. This is incredible how detailed it is and how you really see Chicago. Great work.

@JetJunky seriously I live in Chicago so I really understand the complexity of your efforts. Once again good job dude.

[@platinbullet]

Nice Job Mate ✌🏻😁

[@jetjunky6760]

Thank you :)

[@jongib369]

where I live borders Ohare, and Chicago. Could you possibly do it if paid? I'd love to be able to download it and make changes seeing how it plays out

Somebody should really do the Wrigley building.

[@jetjunky6760]

Yeah, it is such a beautiful building.

[@lnstall_Wizard]

Also do you make your own assets like the iconic buildings?

[@jetjunky6760]

Wherever possible I use assets from the workshop that are either the actual building or share a close resemblance. Failing that I will use the procedural objects mod to try and recreate the building I am looking for. Luckily for Chicago there are a lot of excellent assets on the workshop.
