Thanks guys . . . definatley going to add trees and benches and such . . . The round "cut-outs" you see in the grassy park areas will have a gazebo type dome covered structure in the center so people will have a walk around rotary type hupydo . .
About the trees, originally when the building design style was 'earthly modern,' I was thinking of adding metallic trees . . .

shinny aluminium, with metal leaves something like that . . . ,
but now I think I will go with something normal less edgy. I haven't decided which kind of trees yet, but I have downloaded a few tree designer programs that should give me a hand with that. I just need to keep an eye on the poly count accross the entire project.
Side track: . . .
Today I am going to pick up my Mac Pro . . . .

Finally . . . . .
I am saving the texturing and rendering of this project until I get that puppy on line . . .

.
see ya in a few . . .
