What crazy things do you build in city sims?

More than likely we've all played a city sim at least once. Not having Cities Skylines yet, I still play SimCity 4 until further notice. You can't do much STRANGE things in SC4 so the craziest I've done is give the high schools their own district. What about you? What strange things do you do in city sim games?

I may post here later with screenshots of my creations :)

I haven't played much of any city sim.

However, in The Sims I remember building a 'house' with no walls :sombrero:.
Supporter of the construction of several running gags, including I-366 with a speed limit of 85 mph (137 km/h) and the Hypotenuse.

Please note that I may mention "invalid" FM channels, i.e. ending in an even number or down to 87.5. These are valid in Europe.

SC4: Building a lot of water pumps, selling water to other cities, turning off the water pumps, "refinance" the water contract, rake in millions of Simoleons, and turn the water back on.

Create a super transit connection called the 4 corners multiplex, where 4 large city corners touch. How else am I supposed to deal with 11,000 cars and 10,000 subway riders?

I still have a copy of Sim City 2000 that I use on DOS box with all my classic cites.  Usually when I was kid in the early 90s I would try for maximum population over anything else.  I always found the six by six grid in one zone always worked best since it would encourage the maximum number of 3x3 building in the Residential, Commercial and Industrial grids.  Basically I got into building replicas of real cities and cities with maximum transit efficiency during the turn of the century in my spare time.  I still pick the game every once in a blue moon along with SNES Sim City 1.
