What is City3DPrint?
City3DPrint turns any neighborhood with OpenStreetMap building data into a framed city model. You search for a city, draw a box up to about 3 km across, and it builds the streets and buildings with mapped heights where available and realistic estimates elsewhere.
Every model comes with a decorative frame and an engraved label of up to 40 characters, such as a city name or date. You get STL, 3MF and OBJ files, and the city, streets, water, frame and label are separate parts, which makes color changes easy. You can inspect the full interactive 3D preview before paying, and there are curated collections such as famous skylines and historic old towns. A sister site, Terrain3DPrint, does the same for mountains and landscapes.
Files are paid per model through Stripe and delivered without a sign-up. It suits gift makers who want a finished looking city piece without tuning many settings.
