New York City 1:1 Scale v3

Description
NYC is Huge! I wanted to build NYC as close to real as I can but couldn't find a map that was to scale. So, I decided to make my own =). The playable area of this map is an exact replica based on the real map to scale. Playable area include Liberty Island in the southern tip up to Roosevelt island and parts of Central Park in the North, including parts of LIC and Williansburg in the boroughs, as well as Bayonne and Secaucus in NJ. Bridges and tunnels are not included b/c they techincally do not link directly to highways. The two highway-connected "bridges" that are included are Midtown and Holland tunnels. These can be made into real tunnels once in-game. Tunnels can be drawn across both the Hudson and East River since I made it shallow. Also included are Highway I495, I278, I78, FDR, as well as the LIRR and PATH tracks. Have Fun!

Version 2 added the intersection between I495 and I278...

V3 changed starting location to queens - the original location is a little buggy with cars coming in b/c it's so far from the intersection in the northeast where all traffic pipes thru. Hopefully this new location is easier for you to start the city with. Also moved the highways on the east side to a more accurate location geographically

yeah man trying to go for realism, so...:
1) waterflow's hard to get right, esp if I want to keep terrain in scale. Until the game developers change the water flow so it doesnt pour in from all edges I'm kinda stuck on how it flows. BUT, i guess since in the real NYC there's no dam and the river's already polluted. The lack of water flow's not that big a deal, right? lol

2) that intersection is kinda buggy, not sure why. =(, I tweaked the ramp a little bit and changed the starting location to right next to it, hopefully it'll make the initial plot easier to start your city with.

3) the off ramp is missing but can be easily added in game. I wanted to give the players the freedom to make their own ramps. It's just a personal preferance b/c i've always demolished the default ramp once my city started to make it more customizied.

Thank you for the input tho - I just started my own city this map but didn't get far yet. If you notice something that's game-breaking please let me know! =)

Im sorry to say this ... but is as ruff as guts.... no water flow and the road in the north east is broken, as well how do you start with no highway off ramps?
