It would be very hard to recreate turn of the century Chicago, if that is the goal. Should be interesting to see.

*sniff* *sniff*

I smell a mystery.

Oh, wait, that was just Martin's spaghetti sauce simmering on the stove!

*Lukas looks forward to a nice, hot plate of Tringolini on his next visit to Chicago* :D

I had the opportunity to visit Chicago Land last evening, between bouts with my Cable Modem, and I must say, Chicago 1900 is by far and away the single best project I've ever seen.

Two sims FULL of fun and interesting things to do! The builds were authentic, although, be careful in the brothel, as some material in one upstairs room is quite vulgar.

Chicago 1900 showed what is possible for a small team of people to accomplish when you put your heart and passion into it.

One of my most favorite things about Chicago 1900 was the many buidlings that were actually open with something to do in each of them! Very few facades, which makes for a very good experience!

My congratulations to Martin and his team for creating the very best Themed Creation ever. It will be difficult, if not impossible, for another team to surpass this level of excellence!

Great job people, and thanks for lettng me see it "early" and with a friend :)

Oh, I think so.

Well thank you Bob that is about the best compliment I have had the pleasure to read. One small correction ; Faded Reality Island is just one sim :) good to hear it seems much larger.

I hope everyone has an oppertunity to come explore Chicago in the next week. The grand opening will be in world on Fri. night check the events calendar for details.

Thanks again;

Chicago Fire
05-05-2005 13:06
The Great Fire of 1871, was nearly completely eradicated by 1900, just so you know.

And no, the cow didn't do it.

They acquitted the cow.

(Glove didn't fit)

Low joke, I know.

Cud have been better.

(seriously the cow didn't do it, no one really knows how it started but the site of origin is a Fire Academy & Museum)

Mooove along, move along.

Greener pastures elsewhere.

Just incase you can't stomach anymore.

Shoulda posted this under an alt! :p

I will be sure to tell our cow she is cleared of all charges. I say the "sheep" did it, but we all know he's been punished already ;) hint hint.
