I think this is rather yummy work. For me, I like all the buildings separately but together, there seems a lack of cohesion between them aesthetically.

It's lovely work but I find the car track just a bit overbearing and thus not capturing the sweetness of the original ride.

Shibuya 2000: Such a successful rendering of the theme. Jam packed full of material but also surprisingly readable. Fantastic quality overall.
Time Travels For the Rich: I thought this was really effective. And the music added a nice touch.
The Restaurant: I thought the building was endearing and enjoyable. And the foliage was rather tasteful too.
cant_return: This was a great take on the theme. I appreciated how you still managed to incorporate a ride in it as well.
Post Millenium Breakdown: Though it was a bit unfinished, I think the understatedness actually added to the overall effect. Just lacking the refinement of some other entries.
Times Square: Hooray for the spiral coaster! And the skyscrapers were of such a great quality. Really strong submission. Compact but without being too over-bearing.
walt: A fun, silly entry of solid quality. I love a good shopping centre so I'm glad to see one done so well here but to the extreme. Although I thought the coaster layout wasn't the strongest here.
The Year 2000: This was cute. Perhaps a little all over the place. But LL just makes me happy regardless.
Nicely done everyone.

Lurker: You have such a sweet, admirable style Lurker and it really showed here.The lighthouse was well executed in its simplicity. The coasters were fun and the overall colour scheme with the red rock was warm and inviting.The farming outskirts were an intelligent element to incorporate and added that extra oomph to the atmosphere.It's tough for this style to compete next to the overly technical contemporary style but your work's personality stands for itself. Great job.Ptolemy II: A seriously impressive submission. True dedication to the theme, wonderful activity and storytelling throughout the map. Bold, intricate architecture inside and outside. Detail galore.Perhaps the foliage could have had more variety in colour and feel? But the overall project... you guys really nailed it. Top quality.The Construction of Giza: The ride design really shone here. And the little village buildings were so well done! And that wonderfully done river with the beautiful mill, top notch!Perhaps I didn't appreciate the actual wonder as much. I found the brown supports a bit overbearing. Plus the map shape wasn't really working for me. But a very very strong submission.AJ: Quite a different take on the theme which was a smart move. Enjoyable park that was fun and had a nicely subdued level of theming. I liked the incorporation of water throughout the pyramid.Lots of interacting tracked rides which distinguishes it from the other submissions so far. I think some of the surroundings were a bit undercooked comparatively. They weren't really adding to the overall effect.Nonetheless, a solid submission AJ. Well done.Seven Wonders Selection: This was a treat. A place I'd love to explore in real life. Love the emphasis on gardening and I really liked the foliage mix. And I feel like all the wonderswere executed fantastically. The main thing missing for me is the attention given to peeps. They were really struggling to access the only ride on the map! Quite a special submission though. See myself going back to this one.The Ancient World: I like the attention given to the main roller coaster. The station and the theming around the queue line was really well done.Perhaps lacks the thematic depth and finer details of some other submissions in this category. I felt like the wonder wasn't given the proper attention it needed.But the coaster going off onto its own little islands was a great idea.Kenos: This one's interesting. Definitely lacking refinement but not without its charms. Modest but pleasant colour scheme.Great open feel and I like the starkness of the architecture. Honestly might be my favourite pyramids of the whole round.I did find the static canoes scattered throughout the river a bit strange. I think, despite the roughness, you actually did a wonderful job here.
