First things first. Play this song in the background as you cruise the island and read the description ;)
Crank up the Yacht Rock and take a cruise :

Here I present to you the beautiful area known as Hayden Island in Portland Oregon. This one took a while and still is not perfect but overall I like it and hope you do to.
Its FPS friendly-ish. It does have a spot that makes it have drops depending on how you view it.
Its rite on the edge but again if you have a beefy system you may not notice much.... and this is PDXtreme remeber ;P (also Im learning and need to optimize)
Please let me know, if its chugging bad let me know your system specs when you gripe too hard ;) I think its fine for city cruising. Next version I will tweak how the 2 files merge and hopefully get rid of some of that chug that happens sometimes. I'm still learning and this was the hardest biggest one yet.
It's 2 Files - p1 and p2, drag and drop both files.
This area I wanted to fix up for several reasons. When your leaving KPDX you fly rite over it when your turning to head to the city. I wanted the bridges and the dock areas to look better as the Portland Bridges mod doesn't cover the Hayden Island Bridges.. I would still like to add some nice boat models but that's for next time. Its a beautiful part of Portland and is one step closer to looking better :)
The bridges especially look good. I still need to work on getting traffic to go over them :(
TIPS ON HOW TO DO THIS PLEASE! :)

I recommend using the Portland Bridges mod to go with this, looks great:

I also recommend We Love VFR Region 2it adds the towers on the hills of the city and adds so much more:

I also recommend the Illuminators PDX Night Lights paid add-on. It works with my scenery's and adds decent light to them at night. Its also a pretty great overall city night light upgrade. I'm not paid or anything I just thought I'd recommend it. I picked it up last week and was decently satisfied with it.
ALSO- Crank up the Yacht Rock and take a cruise around the island ;)

Not sure if you ever plan to update this, but if you do... Please take note that the vehicles driving across the double steel canopy bridges from Hayden island to Portland area, are driving under the bridges submerged in the Columbia river. Also would be nice to confirm its full compatibility with SU12.
