Which Zenith City building to try for first?

Nope. Cash :(

I'm holding out for Times, but I'm pretty temped just to go ahead and build a loft as I like the look of it.

I probably wont craft any until the very last day...i'll see how many items I have and calculate what I can do

That sucks. Would not have crafted the apartments yet or maybe ever.

We should have the option to craft a cell tower out of phones. So many phones.

I was saving for and just completed the Zenith City Building today (Yay me!). I haven't figured out what to do with it yet, so for now it's just plopped near my Landing Zone.

I made a telephone booth last weekend, and a 2nd booth today (since I've got more than needed of those crafting materials).

Now to work on the other items. Capes and Handcuffs (especially the latter) are what I'm waiting for. I'm on pace to get enough material to craft at least one of each other building by March 16th. I'll have ~8 more days after that to keep collecting and see what else I can make.

Will have the Times today. :-) Then on to other building projects.

I've been holding off up to this point. Once I get three more handcuffs, I'll have collected enough items to craft one of everything except the Times buildings. I'm going to try to show some restraint, though, and see if I have the will power to hold off until I can craft everything at once. Come on, lock picks!

Learned a hard lesson last night. I though, I've almost got enough capes for the apartments, but need them for the times, so I'll spend some of my precious donuts to craft the apartments and save the capes for the times. Rushing the crafting with donuts still uses the capes, so I'm pretty frustrated I wasted those donuts for nothing! (freemium player mostly)

BTW- The ridiculous scale of the times can actually be used in some 3D designs. By placing it behind something you created in 3D, you will give that creation a sense of larger scale, with the times appearing smaller in the background. I used the botanical gardens + headquarters + Ziff corp building to create a massive 3D skyscraper, and I think putting the times behind it will give an interesting sense of perspective scale. Will post in the the showcase subforum when I craft times.

Totally in love with your design using the botanical gardens here....unbelievably creative!

Very nice, jerryscrip988!

Bought two apartment building's, and going to wait until I can get both the Times and the loft at the same time.
