    I have to disagree Conscars. Now, buildings are starting to be constructed however their designers well please. With current engineering techniques, architects aren't limited by technology and materials anymore, so it makes great sense you'd see a wide variety of building types in future cities.

    What I mean is that (IMO) maps with mixed styles look like crap. Maybe some skyscrapers look different, but not every building on the block. Sorry SMASH, but it's been like this for how long? The Vikings didn't build cedar long houses, they built what suited their needs and resources. Whenever or wherever you look, areas have a distinct style. If you want to make a big peice of art skyscraper, then it should serve some purpose and remain functional. So far, you've got industrial, commercial, a closed in park, and even a giant fin building in there. I don't know what's going on. They just don't look good together, and I think that's what keeps architects from designing wacked-out buildings like that fin.
