Why not create different levels of the city center? Each one could be about a year or two build time difference, with the first taking something like 5 years. Each one would get progressively more advanced, slowly adding the new areas and increasing the already existing abilities.


If you do this make them upgradable. Say it takes five years to build a basic city or whatever you call it. At that point it would be producing resources at a certain rate. To build a more advanced city you shouldn't have to scrap the first one and start from scratch. You should be able to upgrade it over time. This should take a certain number of years, depending on population, race, etc. If you make a big enough cost differance between the two it should take a sufficently long time to upgrade.
