Same, no place for midevil/sci-fi in my town most likely.

I don't get it...medeival/scifi?

Medeival/gothic maybe. Definitely not sci-fi though

Definitely not medieval, New Scotland Yard is Victorian (Victorian Romanesque style according to Wikipedia). Not bought it yet but will be pressing the button soon as I'm creating a Thames inspired area.

Dont know why I said gothic, I meant Victorian. Thanks for the correction!

Still definitely not sci fi

Don't be too hard on yourself; there is a Victorian Gothic style, and the most famous example in London is just a couple of buildings along the river.

Yep, thanks to Pugin the Houses of Parliament are pure Gothic Revival :) (plus it's not as though the images in TSTO can be considered an accurate representation - I'm still wondering where St Paul's main entrance has gone)

One of the few things I am going to take from London to Malaysia next week is my Pugin mug, bought for me as a leaving present by a (then) Secretary of State for the Environment. I want to persuade my wife to get the Lords' Pugin wallpaper, but I don't stand much chance...

This Gil deal was a must for me - I currently (for 2 more days) work on Parliament Street so I love all the local buildings. Norman Shaw South is a gorgeous building, and it is great to have it in the game.
