      What's the best way to trace & 3D my curbs, walls, etc. Also, based on the attached model, what's the best way I can get terrain into the model?

      This is for a landscape plan.

      Also, if you wouldn't mind looking at my buildings and letting me know if there's somethig screwy? I appreciate the feedback thus far...

          I cant see you attachment. I'm assuming you are bringing in a vector plan?
          there are a couple of rubys you will find indispensable for this work(IMO) :
          one is called Weld, and another called selection memory 2
          Weld makes polylines of all your selected cad ingrediaents.
          Selection Memory 2 works by helping you recall sets of lines when you are selecting masses of lines to Weld.

          Tracing a topo/curb and gutter/ parking, street layout would be a real pain if you didn't have to do it.
          Regards,
