Try toning down the shadows and using a more natural green. Right now the shadows are so dark that it muddles the lines of the buildings. And the green, mostly just hurts my eyes. =)
Lookin good though.
Wow, very nice! The sheet effects in CC3 really allow for some great looking maps at all levels - overland, dungeon/floorplan and city.
So are you looking forward to City Designer 3 as much as I am?
This is looking great! If you decide to tweak some more, some of the edges are still a bit sharp for me (ex: trees & text), and the ground color--while better than the earlier incarnation--is a tad too uniform, dropping the interest of the surrounding pattern (of course, don't overdo that either). But I really like the map as a whole!!

Here is an updated image of the map. I like the look of 'White' buildings outlined with black, and find it is better to see the individual buildings.

My untrained eye thinks that the labels for Castle Street and Merchant Street are too wide. That is, the words are too far apart and don't look like they're associated with one another.
Is East at the top of this map? There's nothing to indicate that except the names of the roads.
