Town design tips
Bump I guess

I just nuked a few days ago. I put my 5 mono stations where I wanted them, connected the track and then built the rest off the station (add ones). After that my goal was to pull out all my buildings and deco with multipliers as quickly as possible, as I just bought the sit and spin and need to replenish my in game cash. So I used the mono stations as sections, and put city and higher end stores/stores found in a mall in my area by the mail station. I wanted a Christmas town type attraction and zoo near the North Pole station. The original station is by my houses, Cletus's station by my dump and run down area, and the Krusty station is by my park/camp grounds. SH is upper class stuff, plus a large dealership and airport/space station. I set the buildings out quickly, but laid roads as I went and put the buildings where I thought I wanted them. That took a few hours, so I quit for the day.
The next day I started decorating around a few things, shifting things and then got really aggravated because I felt like it was all just....there...and set it aside for a few hours. I looked at a lot of threads in showcase here, at a few friends towns and then went back into the game and decided to focus on one shopping center and get it how I wanted it. I didn't put anything back in storage but started moving a building from where I originally put it to a spot where I felt it fit better, putting the building I was replacing in the other bulidings spot. I've found that focusing on one or two bulidings at a time and putting together a city block/shopping center around that as been much easier than thinking about the whole town. I'm not done yet, I think today is the fourth or fifth day, but I've made a lot of progress and ultimately am really happy with the areas I have "finished".
I'm sure I will find something hiding in storage or something that doesn't fit in where it is now and have to shift things again, but looking at it as a work in progress over a week or two is much less daunting this time compared to the other times I nuked.
