Man, I can't wait for the 2000s-2020s fase of adding some needed greenery in public places! (painfully) amazing episode as usual, one of my favourite series on UA-cam!
and bike lanes and pedestrian-only zones. I wonder if he'll take light and blue light LED pollution into account, as it's been a more and more discussed topic, especially by Hynek Mědrický, recommending the use of PC-Amber LED lamps, as well as reducing their light output
Such a wonderful cross-over between Dresden (Prager Straße) and Berlin - those superstructures and also the red zick-zack pavement couldn't be better. The fountains in Dresden are called "Pusteblumen" (dandelion) , because the water is sprayed in the form of a ripe dandelion flower, which once pick up and blows it away). The huge street lamps are indeed from Halle (GDR). Thanks a lot for this amazing episode!
Absolutely fantastic update as always with great historical background as well as beautiful modelling . The Plaza also reminds me of "Stadtpromenade" area in Cottbus, before it was destroyed in 2006. "Kosmos" ice bar would fit well around some edge of this.
The realism in this series is out of this world, thank you Akruas for a yet another wonderful episode. I hope you'll continue with this series until it's no longer possible due to the game's limitsrions. I'd love to see your take on the 21st century in Altengrad. If I may have a suggestion, since this is the new city center, perhaps it would make sense to up the density of the surrounding area so that the city doesn't end abruptly? What I mean is that part behind the train tracks. Since it's an industrial area some basic prefab housing estates would fit in like a glove!
This is absolutely amazing! Everything about it from the buildings, their composition to the stone patterns and the small details is just so well done. This is modernism at its finest continuing the tradition of great plazas and city centers into the present day.
Another good example of a modernist square would be Trg Republike in Ljubljana. It was designed in front of a newly built parliament with the Cankar Centre(the largest Slovene convention and culture center) as well as a department store and two massive towers surrounding it, therefore it served as both a political and a cultural centre
Been catching up on this series, and this was one of the ones I've been looking forward to. I was not at all disappointed. Really cool build, and unlike anything that I've seen anyone else doing in Cities: Skylines.
Great video as always, you could include some newer trams, buses (bendy buses too) and new trains to the city, and replace those railbuses with EMUs like the EN57 or something similar
This series is so great! Besides the miniature-level build quality, the background is the real draw for me. I took a lot of urban geography in uni, including some historical geography of North American cities, but since I couldn't find a job in any way related to it I've sort of forgotten about how interesting I find the history and structure of urban environments. We got basically nothing on the history of cities outside North America and Western Europe so it's particularly interesting to see how similar concepts were used in a different socioeconomic system.
Amazing detailing! I can practically feel the Urban Heat Island effect radiating off the square! The fountain gives off vibes like the one in Náměstí svobody in Bratislava. It would be cool to adapt it in a future (Contemporary Altengrad) episode as an urban public waterpark with jets for kids to play in, like they did with that fountain in Bratislava (or like the Granary Square Fountain in London)
Huge respect for the well thought through and planning that all of your builds are based on. And of course the historical context. No hipshot-builds! 😀👌
Seeing my own city (Dresden) is pretty cool :D. Its definitely a great showcase of almost all eras in central european architecture with every quarter representing an era. Johannstadt might be annother great example of postwar housing redevelopment in old quarters that were almost completely destroyed.
17:23 My hometown Linköping looks a bit the same as Veszprém. there is a city center with 1950s density buildings (they moved the interesting older houses to a museum area just outside town, which is now very much in the city). Then there are some areas with low density residentials surrounding it before the concrete ghetto suburbs from the 1960s. More recently more detached and semi detached areas have been added further from the city center. Linköping used to be a military city with a large garison, and their old training fields are now a large nature reserve, creating a banan shaped city. Two air fields (one military, one mostly civilian) add to the confusion.
It's so weird seeing a house I actually lived in in your video. At 1:00 , I lived in the left of the 3 prefabs by the red mall on the left "Alexa" (used to be parking) on the opposing site of Alexanderstraße. 9th floor from 1993 to 1998. Back in the 90s, you could see flowers and trees on Alexander Platz and they even had a volleyball- and a basketballcourt. Now it's just more concrete and more more more malls.
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY NEW VIDEO! Thank you! I always love how you make your videos entertaining, educational, and in-depth about what you're doing regarding architecture, city planning, history and the like. Thank you for providing unique content. Really is a breath of fresh air.
Love the videos, esp the history lessons ;) I would suggest you take a look at Belgrade when you do research/comparisons, it also had the same problems/progression as the other big Central/Eastern European cities of the time, it was also socialist but with its own flavor, and it has many interesting urbanization and infrastructure projects from this era. I think New Belgrade will interest you the most because it's the most striking example of car-centric infrastructure and concrete panel buildings that repeat forever, it really goes in the exact opposite direction of the little Nova Huta neighbourhood you built. Some other locations that come to mind are the Belgrade Fair complex, the Poštanska Štedionica building complex, the Avala Tower, the Mostar interchange that cuts the city in half, the airport whenever you get around to it, and many others I'm forgetting. As for "squarification" and the butchering of old infrastructure that you discuss in this episode, there is Terazije in downtown Belgrade, where the old continental Hotel Moskva faces a wall of Socialist era buildings, the trees on the boulevard ripped apart to fit more lanes. Republic Square as well, the main square of the city, has the 19th century National Museum and National Theatre share space with the brutalist Belgrade Cultural Centre. This is a common occurrence in Belgrade as the lack of a strict building code and the desire to quickly rebuild the rapidly-expanding capital means that walking down a regular street in downtown Belgrade is an eclectic mix between early 20th, socialist and modern architecture. I wish I could recommend you a book but I struggle to find any in .pdf and/or in English, but I really think it's worth the search if you find the time and the will to do so. I'm certain 15 minutes on Google Maps 3D view will inspire you. Thanks so much for the videos!
I expect that in the lore of Altengrad , it will become a market economy at some point in the future, like many of the Eastern European countries it is inspired by. This "Altenpltaz" square would make for a charming Christmas market.
Altengrad is inspired by Central European countries, not Eastern European ones. The primary inspirations are the industrial cities of Czechoslovakia (chiefly Prague) and East Germany and to a lesser extent, Hungary and Poland.
That will likely happen in a later episode. IIRC Bratialava's is from 1975, and Pecs' is from 1973, though some cities were a bit more avantgarde, the Dresden TV tower and the Alexanderplatz ones were already finished in the late 1960s and Brno's Hády was already done in 1964. Though if Akruas continues basing Altengrad's historical development mostly off Prague, then the TV tower episode will probably come during the 1980s decade (Žižkov TV Tower was built between 1985-1992).
The Berlin Alexanderplatz is so interesting. It features so prominently in mid-20th century Cold War culture that it's surprising that the place itself is really just an empty plaza.
I would love to see an episode about the public transport in eastern europe and giving the tram and train network some love in Altengrad. I know you said it won't get a metro but perhaps there could be some upgraded tram infrastructure or some tram-train lines to the further suburbs? And perhaps some bus lines as well. Perhaps that is more an 80s thing?
I love this series. I just wish you mentioned Yugoslav architecture occassionally. I know you said that it's not your point of focus, but a guy can dream.
Very nice work just like every time. But I have one thaught about the new square. It is totally dominated by the stalinist hotel (?) you build earlier after the war. Given it is kind of a headquarter or culture club to me it is implausible, to block it with the house of the teacher. I would relinquish the house of the teacher or put it elsewhere just to widen the area and make the hotel the angular point of the whole area. IMHO that would fit better to the concept oft East Berlin oder Dresden. Anyway: Please go on, love your series.
CS2's gameplay looks great, but it is clearly not intended for realistic or detailed cities so I won't be able to just start a similar series in it right away
it would be cool to put for the years 1990-2000 or 2010-2020 metro, bus, tram, elevator but also fast food, casino, prison, hotel, toll and also oil, forestry, cinema full of leisure stuff but also industry and beautiful roundabouts and park with lots of games for children and also roads with cycle paths
Having been to Most to see the socialist architecture firsthand, I think this new central square definitely has some similar vibes. I'm a bit sad to see all this district gone, but this series really is an excellent depiction of what happened to Central European cities during the socialist era. Congrats for your work !
This city is missing an airport, it should’ve been done more in the 40s but right now is a good time to make it, with a latter expansion in the 2010s or so
Love how this project develops, there is plenty of Progress,Ground Flattening, Engineering and Modernism happening ! Thank you for all the effort it requires to build all that and record the material for us to watch. Love your attention to details correct to the period and esthetics. Also : someone knows difference between socialist realism and modernism that happened to be built in a socialist state. Big relief !

Do you use fake spawn points for people inside PO buildings? Ive begun placing houses and shops inside larger PO buildings otherwise I cant mimic pedestrian traffic in and out of PO areas. I wonder if there is an easier way to do it.
Hi, in the very beginning of the video (0:03) I absolutely love the old European buildings. Did you download something special like a theme or did you just select from the workshop the ones you like? When yes who is the creator of those magnificent "things"?
I picked so many different individual buildings, if you simply search "european" you will find most of them. The authors are for example Titan, Feindbold, Jens, and many others.
I get that the highway past the station is inspired by Prague, but this is just stupidity. There really needs to be a connection between that huge pedestrian area and the station building.
Hello Akruas. I only have a small question today. When will new trams be built? I think the red ones from the 30s and the lowa trams don't really fit the city anymore
IPT 2 doesn't allow precision insertion of specific vehicles anymore, so I can't add more new ones. Besides, plenty of pictures show old trams even in the 70s.
Will you do some kind of high-rise skyline/downtown. I know that they are quite unsual in central european cities. I know Bratislava and Warsaw have one... 🌃 Video is great as always 🤩
akruas, when can you release Altengrad's first person ride video again? , I want to see the Altengrad first person ride video of 70s /Akruas, when can you release the first person ride video of Altengrad 70s? I want to see My English is not good, this is what I translated with google😅
Man, I can't wait for the 2000s-2020s fase of adding some needed greenery in public places! (painfully) amazing episode as usual, one of my favourite series on UA-cam!

Fr and new dockland districts whit gentrification ❤
Also maybe some highway demolition and historic districts rebuilding
Have you guys ever been to eastern Europe? Its 2023 and green cities trend is only starting.
I love your Cities:skylines series (especially Altengrad), Not only are they entertaining, but they're also super informative
Small thing, but those trees on the hillside surrounding the old town would surely be much bigger by now? It's been decades since they were planted.
The weekend can’t start better then with a new Altengrad video! Thx
Oké and wauw If was having dinner at the Praguer street in Dresden last week 😍

No es solo que se vea maravilloso, es todo el contexto e investigación detrás!… Construir así tiene sentido y no aburre!…
Wake up babe, Altengrad is being rebuilt!
Thank you as always
Another absolute masterpiece, can't wait for the next one
extremely informative, not even sure If I'm not watching the series more for the knowledge than changing city right now :)

omg i love this series so much it's indescribable. It's like a professional lecture on urbanism. I love it so!
I love how Altengrad has shaped up! The Stalinist skyscraper set right between the old town and modern square makes an excellent centerpiece.
You have some amazing skills. You know how to tell your story and include factual history. Much appriciated
Probably my favourite cs series on youtube!

still unbelivable that you dont have at least 100k subs. this series is so insanely good and super informative
Great build as always.
As a tip, you might be able to place the tram wire poles using line marking tool, which might be easier for filling in gaps
You should make a compilation of notable places and show how they have changed throughout the ages.
Keep up the work bro❤

That empty hillside by the river and old town looks like prime real estate, much like monaco.
Awesome, as always. I noticed though that one of the buses in front of the train station is parked in the opposite direction.
Yes, I fixed it.
there is nothing left from the original game in this gameplay session 😂
I would love to see before and after of the new area. When it's was still old and traditional in comparison to the newly built district.
The Berlin Alexanderplatz is so interesting. It features so prominently in mid-20th century Cold War culture that it's surprising that the place itself is really just an empty plaza.
You are an absolute procedural objects wizard, I can't believe how fast and naturally you work.

This plaza has completely changed my perspective about modernism architecture. I can see now what the goal was.
Thank you
Always good videos. Thanks
12:15 for a second, i was wondering when you build a new train station... Your city looks so realistic i thought that it was Dresden
usually these large new houses in city centers had some simple (mostly just written ) advertising on the roofs
A suggestion for your problem with the pedestrian paths/lanes, if you don't already use it, try lane controller.
Loving this series !
Beautifull patterns
Are you making the metro any time in the near future?
Very nice work just like every time. But I have one thaught about the new square. It is totally dominated by the stalinist hotel (?) you build earlier after the war.
