This world stays true to the name and music; Dr. Eggman is everywhere on this map, from posters to a huge statue of himself! It has warmer colors which are illuminated by the neon colors of the building lights populating the city. Bits of the original Green Hill remain. However, some floor tiles retain the checkerboard pattern, although with a darker tone. There is a singular loop and tree that look identical to Green Hill, similar to Sonic Prime's depiction of the Zone present as well. Countless Robots are present in the Zone as well. The only hope left is the resistance base, hidden on the map.
Welcome to New York, probably the most impressive city in the world. After commemorating the sad events of September 11, 2001, I intended to build this scenario of landmarks for myself, but then decided to share it with the community.
For the sheer number of buildings that exist in this fabulous city, I've only included 48 iconic buildings/landmarks in this collection (original version had 25 models). I know I'm missing too many, but I just wanted to pay tribute to this city and its people and the United States in general, for its strength in those difficult times twenty years ago. In this collection you'll appreciate the newest, tallest and most expensive residential buildings that were constructed in the city in recent years.
Dozens of short plays, mounted on pageant wagons, began with a performance at the Trinity Priory (red dot, lower left) and moved through the city streets, stopping at pre-arranged performance locations known as stations (white dots).
PSim (Pageant Simulator) 2.1 for Java, a teaching aid and research tool, is computer software that models the motion of pageant wagons during a simulation of medieval England's York Corpus Christi Pageant. Dots representing individual wagon-mounted plays move from station to station on a color map of the city, while the computer displays elapsed time. PSim comes with several default data sets that illustrate elements of different production theories, as developed by some of the modern scholars who have tried to reconstruct the medieval performance. The program was originally written for Windows 3.x, but a Java (web) version of PSim is now available -- although it may load very slowly on some systems. I suggest that you first visit the PSim screen shots, which cover in detail what PSim does.
Java Simulation of the Motion of Pageant Wagons in the York Corpus Christi Play
Push a button and watch dots representing individual play-wagons as they move across a map representing the medieval city of York, England. Labels indicate which play is performing at what time. (See: About the PSim program.)

A product of the New York City Department of City Planning, the NYC Flood Hazard Mapper provides a comprehensive overview of the coastal flood hazards that threaten the city today, as well as how these flood hazards are likely to increase in the future with climate change. It is intended to enable more informed decision-making by residents, property and business owners, architects and engineers, and policy-makers.
Binghamton (/ˈbɪŋəmtən/ BING-əm-tən) is a city in the U.S. state of New York, and serves as the county seat of Broome County.[4] Surrounded by rolling hills, it lies in the state's Southern Tier region near the Pennsylvania border, in a bowl-shaped valley at the confluence of the Susquehanna and Chenango Rivers.[5] Binghamton is the principal city and cultural center of the Binghamton metropolitan area (also known as Greater Binghamton, or historically the Triple Cities, including Endicott and Johnson City), home to a quarter million people.[6] The city's population, according to the 2020 census, is 47,969.[7]
From the days of the railroad, Binghamton was a transportation crossroads and a manufacturing center, and has been known at different times for the production of cigars, shoes, and computers.[8] IBM was founded nearby, and the flight simulator was invented in the city, leading to a notable concentration of electronics- and defense-oriented firms. This sustained economic prosperity earned Binghamton the moniker of the Valley of Opportunity.[9] However, starting with job cuts made by defense firms towards the end of the Cold War, the region lost a large part of its manufacturing industry.[10]
Today, while there is a continued concentration of high-tech firms, Binghamton is emerging as a healthcare- and education-focused city, with Binghamton University acting as much of the driving force behind this revitalization.[11]
The first known people of European descent to come to the area were the troops of the Sullivan Expedition in 1779, during the American Revolutionary War, who destroyed local villages of the Onondaga and Oneida tribes.[9] The city was named after William Bingham, a wealthy Philadelphian who bought the 10,000 acre patent for the land in 1786, then consisting of parts of the towns of Union and Chenango.[9][12] Joshua Whitney, Jr., Bingham's land agent, chose land at the junction of the Chenango and Susquehanna Rivers to develop a settlement, then named Chenango Point, and helped build its roads and erect the first bridge.[9][13] Significant agricultural growth led to the incorporation of the village of Binghamton in 1834.[8][9]
Binghamton incorporated as a city in 1867 and, due to the presence of several stately homes, was nicknamed the Parlor City.[8] In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, many immigrants moved to the area, finding an abundance of jobs. During the 1880s, Binghamton became the second-largest manufacturer of cigars in the United States.[9] By the early 1920s, Endicott Johnson, a shoe manufacturer whose development of welfare capitalism resulted in many amenities for local residents, became the region's largest employer.[18] An even larger influx of Europeans immigrated to Binghamton, and the working class prosperity resulted in the area being called the Valley of Opportunity.[9][18]
In 1913, 31 people perished in the Binghamton Clothing Company fire, which resulted in reforms to the New York fire code.[19][20] Major floods in 1935 and 1936 resulted in a number of deaths and washed out the Ferry Street Bridge (now the Clinton Street Bridge). The floods led the city to build flood walls along the length of the Susquehanna and Chenango Rivers.[9][21]
During the Second World War, growth continued as IBM, which was founded in greater Binghamton, emerged as a global technology leader.[22] Along with Edwin Link's invention of the flight simulator in Binghamton, IBM's growth helped transition the region to a high-tech economy. Other major manufacturers included Ansco and General Electric.[8] Until the Cold War ended, the area never experienced an economic downfall, due in part to its defense-oriented industries.[9] The city's population peaked at around 85,000 in the mid-1950s.[23]
Post-war suburban development led to a decline in the city's population and the rapid growth of the towns of Vestal and Union.[9] Like many other Rust Belt cities, traditional manufacturers saw steep declines, though Binghamton's technology industry limited this impact. Urban renewal efforts to reverse these trends dominated construction in the city during the 1960s and early 1970s and led to the destruction of many ornate city buildings.[9] The construction included the creation of Government Plaza, the Broome County Veterans Memorial Arena, and the Brandywine Highway.[24][25][26] While these projects failed to stem most of the losses, they established Binghamton as the region's government and cultural center.[9] The city's population declined from approximately 64,000 in 1969 to 56,000 by the early 1980s.[27]
In the 21st century, the city has tried to diversify its economic base to spur revitalization. The local economy has slowly transitioned toward services and healthcare.[11] Major emphasis has been placed on Binghamton University, which built a downtown campus in 2007[29] and several student housing complexes.[30] The increased downtown residential population and the university's plans to build additional student housing have spurred development of supporting businesses and a renewed focus on the riverfront.[31] Unfortunately, two severe floods have stymied the recovery: while most of the impact of the Mid-Atlantic United States flood of 2006 was in the surrounding metropolitan area, the remnants of Tropical Storm Lee topped city flood walls in September 2011, causing $1 billion of damage in greater Binghamton.[32]
Binghamton, like all of the Southern Tier of New York, lies on the Allegheny Plateau; hence its hilly terrain. As such, elevations can vary in the city--Downtown, for example, is at an elevation of around 860 feet (262 meters), while residential homes in the hills can go up to over 1,800 feet (548 meters), such as on Ingram Hill. The highest peak in Binghamton is Table Rock Ridge, which is at 1,854 feet.[34]
