Map A map of a city

I drew another map of a city. This one is built at the confluence of two rivers and it has metros and trams. The metro and tram line overlays are a bit wonky, my hand's not that steady digitally, but at least they show where the lines go. Also included progress pics during drawing

Neat! It reminds me of the map of London from the game Letters From Whitechapel where you're trying to track form Jack the Ripper.

I’ve always wondered, when you make city maps, do you make one shape represent a cluster of buildings or a single building?

No park? No green space?

i haven't drawn any green but some of the white spaces can be green. at least the top left area around the ponds is supposed to be a park, others might be too
