More Groenplaats - Buildings vs environment

It really kills me: flattening hills, deleting trees, removing grass, ruining flowerbeds ... Something I really underestimated was levelling the whole world. I just picked a regular world, so I would have underground caves, but Antwerp is as flat as a pancake, and even levelling a 50 by 50 square takes roughly 1 hour. If you look at this map:

 

 

you immediately understand what I mean. The water around is at height 64, whereas the Groenplaats (and the rest of the city) is at 67. So I decide not to fill levels 65 and 66 anymore, unless it is necessary. This means that I'm creating subterranean lakes! :-)

 

This is East of the Groenplaats:

In the center I already covered part of the lake.

The challenge I just have overcome is the kiosk in the south-east corner of the square:

 



More on that one later on ...



Progress

Progress, as well as in the building as the thing we call "progress of humanity"; the latter because I already deleted about 100 trees, and I'm putting the whole thing full with stone. No more grass, flowers, unorganized trees ...

Ah well, the result is this:

What has changed since last time?
1. A lot more trees, lighting and benches
2. Already some facades on the left of the square

3. The first blocks for the entrance of the underground parking
4. I excavated the whole parking:

 

At the far end, I already made a "secret" entrance to the underground canyon. The two pedestrian entrances and the exit are linked, as well as the subway entrance (which still needs A LOT of work).
