[p]While one part of the development team continues working on the already released lines 6 and 17 — addressing community feedback and adding new features like AI buses — another part is focusing on the northern expansion.[/p][p][/p][p]The new line 7 runs from Barmbek station towards Steilshoop. Along the way, it shows many faces of the city: from Barmbek’s lively center with shops and restaurants, through commercial areas, to the distinctive high-rise buildings in Steilshoop. Despite the dense urban development, the district is surprisingly green and varied.[/p][p][/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/38629408/7557aad2e62e9bfad122a7d7af6c4305c109acbb.jpg"][/img][/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/38629408/9112d51b775ccc6ae04d9ed570f2aa4dd97c6086.jpg"][/img][/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/38629408/690dda3a29239fea3958fd48de1041189da99534.jpg"][/img][/p][p]Many new buildings are being created as individual 3D models. Highlights include the Catholic Church of St. Johannis on Gründgensstraße, the Emil-Krause School near Habichtstraße subway station, and modern single-family homes near the Borchertring terminus. Of course, the typical four-story red brick apartment buildings are also included.[/p][p][/p][p]Particularly charming are the allotment gardens with wooden garden sheds, which have not appeared in the Hamburg DLC before.

It also brings new streets, pathways, markings, traffic signs, and countless small details. While one part of the team focuses on buildings, another works on roads, sidewalks, curbs, and traffic rules. After that comes vegetation, lighting, and many tiny objects that are hardly noticed but are crucial for the atmosphere.[/p][p][/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/38629408/cfc0732281266237d6cd2d57e0fd6c7b829feaae.jpg"][/img] [/p][p]The images in this news post give a first impression of the current progress. Many buildings are already placed but will be further refined and aligned correctly. Some screenshots also show maps from the State Survey Office (Geoportal), which allow us to achieve almost centimeter-accurate placement.
