Berlin Reichstag

There are 3 structures in Berlin that I absolutely love -- Brandenburger Tor, the Fernsehturm, and the Reichstagsgebäude. The latter best represents Berlin's tumultuous history. The Reichstag was constructed in 1894, burned in 1933, ravaged by war in 1945, neglected destitute in ruins from 1945-1989, and finally restored to its current state in 1999, featuring a glimmering glass dome by Norman Foster. It wears its history on its sleeve. You can still see pockmarks on its facades created by artillery, tanks, and small arms fire from WW2, whose European theater ended on its doorstep. Today it houses the German Parliament (Bundestag) and attracts around 3 million visitors per year, offering the best free bird's-eye view of the city, open every night until midnight.

AleX_BY made the first Reichstag building for Cities:Skylines in 2015. He has given me permission to update his model with a glass dome that features the semi-transparent rotor-shader.

Recommended plop technique:

Draw a straight vanilla road. Plop the asset. Raise and curve the road with MoveIt! so that it sits just under the prop ramp. Convert the road to an invisible road like this one by nico_oas.
