How To Start a City For 2021 - Cities Skylines Tutorial

Today we're taking a look at a new starting layout idea including the first minor highway exit, working with basic grid patterns, specific zoning, some light park detailing and preparing for a first build. This city will be continued in Sunday's livestream and serves as a basic frame and network for noobs to get started with the games mechanics. This city is not replacing Palaven, just updating the template for the year.
