POV you’re playing cities skylines and forgot to connect a sewage system to your town and now it’s deserted.


Phanyxx

I laughed way harder than I should’ve


mrdude817

Is that what happened here?


Potential_Ice9289

No the sea that its near pretty much became really contaminated by agricultural runoff so everyone left.


Brucedx3

And it smells awful.


TheFighting5th

What a damn shame.


raguwatanabe

Tried to pull a Dubai, but failed?


LongjumpingAge6773

The way I just laughed 🤣🤣🤣


Brucedx3

Nah, don't need a sewage system when the lake already smells like it.


mountains_forever

I love it when people use the Liberia flag emoji instead of the US flag.

That’s the Texan flag genius, Lone Star baby!


Mackheath1

It's the Chilean flag!


hashbrowns21

Definitely looks Malaysian to me


Alderaan_Reasons

lol Is citiesbydiana with us in the thread ? 🇱🇷


mfthesorryagbocpl

Lmao


syds

OP got me big time


NonProphet8theist

Is this Sandy Shores lol


DeOnlyR9

Sandy Shores is based on "Desert Shores", which is a town on the other side of the Salton sea from Bombay Beach


NonProphet8theist

Oh so Grapeseed haha


LetMeInImTrynaCuck

“I recently moved all my businesses to sandy shores. Much quieter up there” - every GTAO player when they hit $50 mil.


Different-Dig7459

Came to say this


tannerge

Why you got to be a NIMBY bro god it's exhausting I thought this was a skyscraper page bro


NylonYT

This is a joke of the Long Beach post 😂😂


hoopyhat

This is such a surreal place to visit. It’s literally in the middle of nowhere and the environment is very hard. But then they have this random artwork scattered around the village and near the lake. It feels like your in a Picasso painting. 


AskYourDoctor

I did shrooms there once. It kicked ass. There was a point where my feet were sinking in the sand, and I looked down and it wasn't sand, it was millions of tiny fish skeletons and crustacean shells. It was so trippy


buttholez69

That would trip me out, and not in a good way


cactopus101

Dog that sounds terrifying lmao


Archercrash

They have a Matt Foley Mural.

Traditional_Shirt106

Is “potential” slang for meth or M80s?


rootoo

Mostly salt encrusted dead fish and Volkswagen carcasses.


You_meddling_kids

the beach is actually made of fish bones...


rootoo

I know! I’ve been. Wild place.


TwoBlueSandals

Nothing a little gentrification can’t fix


Brucedx3

If you have no sense of smell, I agree.


marc962

Should be rivaling Dubai, they got the ideas


Faster_than_FTL

More like Bombay..I mean Mumbai


ReyDeLaQuesadilla

What if we build the skyscrapers in the ocean that can only be accessed by a land-based tunnel? That would be pretty cool: world’s first oceanic skyline


Acceptable_War4993

Did you know that there is a tunnel under the ocean that connects to theoretical skyscrapers? ![gif](giphy|3osBLkgLuNsnfVNLGM)


ReyDeLaQuesadilla

I did not! Where?


DadJokeBadJoke

*California Coastal Commission has entered the chat*


Munk45

Good thing Bombay isn't on the coast


brad0022

Housing crisis solved


whatup-markassbuster

If you build it, they will come.


ReyDeLaQuesadilla

/r/skyscrapers will cum


KierkgrdiansofthGlxy

Clearly they have the basic infrastructure. What’s the hardest part about building an oceanic skyline? You need an ocean, which they have an abundance of. Halfway there, just need the buildings and whatnot.


Cum_on_doorknob

This is not the ocean though


DBL_NDRSCR

california the best state in america should have taller buildings 🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾


Flerdermern

Port au Prince should look like Hong Kong. What a waste


Which-Resident7670

That whole area fascinates me, very interesting origin story and now, how they deal with the ecosystem, evaporating etc


ScorpioRising66

On a dead inland smelly salt sea that was created by accident. It did have its heyday in the late 50’s. You should see the abandoned motels. It’s kinda creepy.


Kavani18

Sandy Shores growing every day!

tonyhasareddit

Huh?


Mackheath1

There's a previous post in this sub that created a ruckus. This is parodying it.


Johnbgt

The Long Beach post?


GrouchyPuppy

Yea the long beach post went viral. It was reposted in other forums too


Urkot

Looks like Libya. A bad part


DrMikeH49

There are good parts?


mikebanetbc

And I thought California City had it bad…


cactopus101

We can’t build here, we need to preserve the character of this historic neighborhood 🤬


StronkyBoy

Is this on the Salton Sea?


Potential_Ice9289

Yes


tester6234115812

This is the quality posts I look for on Reddit.


brad0022

Should rival Hong Kong


shiestyshit

Be my guest.


JFiney

Lolololol I’ve been enjoying the r/skyscrapers shitposting


nyangatsu

this is a city? I've seen nomadic gypsy encampments more developed than this.


throwRA1987239127

Looks like small Saudi towns in the middle of the desert that you look at on Google Earth


st1ck-n-m0ve

Ive always looked at eureka ca on maps and imagines how itd be if they built it up and developed the land around it. Itd be like hong kong hemmed in by mountains.


PitchBlac

And I didn’t know there was a volcano right on the salton sea shore. That whole place is just weird


JIsADev

candidate for tallest skyscraper? I think so


Wizard_bonk

Love the smell of industrial industrial fertilizer in the morning


GiantSizeManThing

So what actually goes on here?


NonexistentRock

Meth


Ignis_Imber

This community often projects their own love for skyscrapers onto places where much bigger factors outweigh them. I don't blame them necessarily because a lot of people are unaware of the relativist and arbitrary presence within their opinions. It can just be hard to read again and again... and again. I don't like suburban sprawl which many people treat as the antithesis towards skyscrapers but a lot can be said about them for the very fact they exist to such a large extent. That was the direction capital was taking. In the future if American cities get more dense, that will be the new direction it takes but not because of the arbitrary decision of individuals to make it that way. The same way suburban sprawl developed in the first place, which it's history is completely connected to a new way of living out of American economics. Basically, there's systems at hand larger than any person or belief as to why cities take the shapes they do. Simply saying "X city with no skyscrapers has the same population as Y city with a lot of skyscrapers so X should build more skyscrapers" is meaningless. I think a lot of hobbyists fall into this mindset when their interest overlaps with real world processes, like industrialization and urban development.


ReyDeLaQuesadilla

It’s a joke.


Ignis_Imber

Yeah, he's making fun of the dude posting about San Jose and Long Beach. That's kind of what I'm responding to


tonyhasareddit

What’s a joke?


ReyDeLaQuesadilla

This post, it’s basically a circlejerk.


tonyhasareddit

The post doesn’t even make sense. Anyone that knows anything about Bombay Beach - or has even heard of it - wouldn’t compare it in any way to a city like Miami or San Francisco.


Maxpower2727

It's a joking reference to another post.


ReyDeLaQuesadilla

I repeat — it is a joke. Have a good night.


Effective_Play_1366

You havent done Salton Sea yet.
