Now that I've seen the labeling I have changed my mind. It looks wonderful. Superb job !!

Thank you Carbus
Nice solution to the borders. I was going to suggest the same thing.
Incidentally, I always find your maps so frustrating - they are filled with so much detail, but I don't speak French. I'm tempted to learn the language just so I can appreciate your maps!
Yea it's better like that, thanks for having pointed out that issue! Sorry for the french but it would have been a nightmare to label this one in english Though I tried to do a map in english ( Kingdoms of Kesh WIP - in my signature) if you haven't seen it yet (the labels are probably kind of poor since imagination goes better in your own language )
Great map!
"...de l'Empirium" of somebody like Napoleon the 3rd?
Will there be Rue de la Barricade there?
P.S. yes, french names + 19 century-like setting makes me think of 1848 and 1871
P.P.S. I think, that Maps of Paris in 1848 and 1871 are the only maps of 19th century cities that I have seen yet... Your map has woken my memories

Thanks much Gallien! Well you kind of have some good references and I'm pretty glad that this map reminds you those things since it's pretty much the style I wanted to have on it. But Yphyrion is a fictional city
A really impressive city map! Did you create the house blocks with the vector tools in PS? Or did you use a vector program and then import?
Thank you Spiento No I draw all the layout directly in PS without using any vector tools.
