Description
Le Havre is an urban French commune and city in the Seine-Maritime department in the Normandy region of northwestern France. It is situated on the right bank of the estuary of the river Seine on the Channel southwest of the Pays de Caux, very close to the Prime Meridian. Le Havre is the most populous commune of Upper Normandy, although the total population of the greater Le Havre conurbation is smaller than that of Rouen. After Reims, it is also the second largest subprefecture in France. The name Le Havre means "the harbour" or "the port". Its inhabitants are known as Havrais or Havraises.
The city and port were founded by King Francis I in 1517. Economic development in the Early modern period was hampered by religious wars, conflicts with the English, epidemics, and storms. It was from the end of the 18th century that Le Havre started growing and the port took off first with the slave trade then other international trade. After the 1944 bombings the firm of Auguste Perret began to rebuild the city in concrete. The oil, chemical, and automotive industries were dynamic during the Trente Glorieuses (postwar boom) but the 1970s marked the end of the golden age of ocean liners and the beginning of the economic crisis: the population declined, unemployment increased and remains at a high level today.
Changes in years 1990–2000 were numerous. The right won the municipal elections and committed the city to the path of reconversion, seeking to develop the service sector and new industries (Aeronautics, Wind turbines). The Port 2000 project increased the container capacity to compete with ports of northern Europe, transformed the southern districts of the city, and ocean liners returned. Modern Le Havre remains deeply influenced by its employment and maritime traditions. Its port is the second largest in France, after that of Marseille, for total traffic, and the largest French container port.
In 2005, UNESCO inscribed the central city of Le Havre as a World Heritage Site. The André Malraux Modern Art Museum is the second of France for the number of impressionist paintings. The city has been awarded two flowers by the National Council of Towns and Villages in Bloom in the Competition of cities and villages in Bloom.

comment dire.... en désépérant un jour de voir ma ville natale, je me suis lancé dans la création de cette scène.
J'ai réalisé ma 1ère tuile qui partait de la plage jusqu'au centre ville.
Je n'avais pas encore utilisé vos outils d'optimisiation mais j'allais y venir.
Du coup, vu que vous avez fait ce travail je vais laissé de coté. Peut être m'essayer sur une autre ville.
PS: Pour ma culture personnelle, sur la scène réalisé j'avais des soucis au niveau de l'eau.
Avez vous simplement procéder par terraforming? :D
Encore merci et un immense bravo, c'est de toute beauté... des scènes qu'ont aiment !!!!
BRAVO

Avec MSFS 2024, il y a une superposition au niveeau des cheminées de l'ancienne centrale EDF. Sinon, quand pensez-vous pouvoir refaire Le Havre en photogrammétrie, svp, et pourriez-vous y inclure la zone industrielle et également Montivilliers , qui est la ville la plus peuplée de la banlieue du Havre ?
Merci par avance.
