For each of the garden types it would be great if we could have a simple ground tile that gave us cobblestones or pavement that matched the architecture of the planet. You could have small, med, large or even exotic streets.

Every "street-park" that you added would of course be going toward your civic structures cap. Here is a great way for cities to get pavement in selected areas of their city if they want it - while keeping the server issues in check - it's all within the cap!

not bad idea... but tnot critical

Actually, what they need is a simple system which allows for areas to be flagged as paved. Our city has a good bit of official street area, which means that trying to pave that with gardens would get us about a block before we hit the size*2+1 limit. :-( I know the database storage of flagging squares as pavement is a nightmare, but perhaps allow the mayor to set a box of terrainin which everthing within 20m of a structureis paved for each city level would be appropriate? For those who want urban sprawl, just box your city limits in. :-) For those who don't, use multiple boxes to zone areas of pavement and areas of nature. Perhaps overly complicated, however....

I would agree about the not critical thing WAN, I have bigger problems I'd like them to address at the moment including the floating radii issue.

Thought this would be a common sense fun thing to get on their plate for 1Q04 though
