But we may be talking transit next week as the city has begun to serve longer commute times and may be ready for a more comprehensive public transit system.<\/p>\n<p>This week there were some good comments regarding the lack of use and accessibility along the waterfront. This was partially intentional \u2014\u00a0to buy time to think of solutions \u2014\u00a0as the game does not provide great options for waterfront usage. Many of the amenities such a marina aren&#8217;t available until cities reach a certain population. (Sim City fanatics: please comment with tips and tricks on how to better utilize the waterfront.) Nevertheless, the waterfront still needs to be incorporated with the city.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"Spacington\" src=\"https:\/\/spacing.ca\/toronto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/Spacington-Dec.-19-441331869519.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"Spacington\" src=\"https:\/\/spacing.ca\/toronto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/Spacington-Oct.-10-421331866823.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Sims fans (help):<\/strong> We have used the suggested transit mods for the game, but unfortunately didn&#8217;t have great results.
