Go Inside an Intensely Detailed 'Minecraft' Version of Downtown Chicago


Go Inside an Intensely Detailed 'Minecraft' Version of Downtown Chicago The project, posted on Imgur, took three and a half years to complete. Redditor Koodoo25 slowly built up the virtual city using data and images from Google Maps, Emporis, and Skyscraper Page, along with models from SketchUp 3D Warehouse to make the model accurate down to the details on the buildings’ facades. “There may be a few tiny details or dimensions a little bit off, but everything down to the placement of street lights and trees was done to recreate what I saw in Google Maps StreetView as accurately as I could,” the creator writes on Reddit. You can download it and explore yourself via Planet Minecraft. See http://ift.tt/2kSS2dE
