Chicago, Illinois - 1:2 Scale
I am recreating the city of Chicago, Illinois in roughly 1:2 scale (56% of the original size). This project will cover all of downtown Chicago. I am recreating the city based off images and 3D models provided by Google Maps, Google images, and the Sketchup 3D Warehouse. Data about the heights of buildings are provided by Skyscraperpage and Emporis.

I started this project in July of 2013, but around 80%+ of the progress made has been within the last year.

Please note that there are currently only a couple of interior spaces created (the lobby of the Rookery on LaSalle St and the observatory near the top of the Hancock Center). I will be adding more notable interior spaces over time, but this project's primary focus is on creating a detailed replica of Chicago's streets and skyscrapers, not so much the insides of buildings.
I am creating this using my personal creative Bukkit server with WorldEdit running on Minecraft version 1.10.2.

All renderings are made in Chunky.
A custom resource pack is included in the zip folder with the world save.
