Lakeshore East – Chicago
Updated and more detailed models of Downtown Chicago Buildings in Lakeshore East and along the Chicago River from Wabash Ave Eastwards.
My second project to better model Downtown Chicago involves Lakeshore East and portions of the East Chicago River areas. This mod adds improved details and updated information. Features include:
– Aon Center (fully detailed with roof features)
– Prudential Plaza (including the mast on One Prudential Plaza)
– An under-construction Vista Tower… aka St. Regis Chicago (I was not able to obtain a completed model of it at this time, but I can try in the future to add this)
– Wrigley Building and Tribune Tower
– Lakeshore East Development update
– Improved mods for Millennium Park
– Aqua Chicago
– Chicago’s Second Tallest Building along the riverfront
Items I am aware that need improvement, and I hope to try in future versions:
– Ground Imagery of Maggie Daley Park – I attempted to replace the imagery with updated data, but this caused the waterfront to be overridden and removed the “water effect”.
– A few of the buildings appear very bright. I did import the data with the brightness reduced to try to match the models in the game. A few did not take despite several tries.
– A couple of buildings have “split models” but this only affected a few small ones and didn’t appear very noticeable.
– I will retry when I can obtain a completed Vista Tower model.
I welcome feedback on any of this project. The model was taken using the Google Maps imagery… Full credit and copyrights to the creators of those models, and this is purely meant as a project of love of Chicago with no profits to be gained from this.
