Hey Guys and Gals and everything in between,
I’ve been doing some work around my capital city, Mision. It’s a city based on a mix of Buenos Aires and Barcelona. I’m new to all this worldbuilding stuff, so I was wanted to ask for some honest feedback on the work I’ve been doing.
When I say honest, I mean HONEST.
Anything big or small that I’m doing wrong or right would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
[EDIT: I mean more the southern end of town, and more on the layout and design of my roads.]

The harbour is quite good looking thus far, and quite detailed.
Need more work on the central though. I don’t see any details there yet, apart from this rail station: https://opengeofiction.net/#map=17/1.41293/47.96820. The rail station isnt that good though; there are sharp curves to the platforms; do the branches earlier. And remove this sharp rail: https://opengeofiction.net/#map=19/1.41186/47.96240.
Overall, still good job, but I need to see more developments. A word of advice though: Since this is the capital, think of building governmental buildings, leave some space for diplomatic missions and think of building some historical sites in the capital. Remember to build an airport as well.

OK, I’ll be honest. Most of what I see in your territory was mapped before you took over the country. It feels a little bit disingenuous to ask for feedback on work that isn’t your own, without explaining that fact. What have you actually added?

Why is a city/town called ‘Paraguay’?

@zhenkang
Thanks for that. I agree about bringing the rail up, but I’ve been putting it off because it’s such a task.
As far as government stuff goes, I will be putting the majority in Sindicato, an have already started that. And I have also started the airport out to the west.

@Luciano
Yeah, my bad. I should’ve clarified. I’m specifically talking about the grid stuff that I’ve been building in the south side of the river.

Hey - what is this? [https://opengeofiction.net/#map=19/1.41190/47.96311]
A railway-curve with 5 m radius? Good luck for your trains. Indeed this railway - junction looks not good.
Also your streetcar-curves are rectangled and so seen not realistic
