Using the latest designs we've come to use, including designs we've come up with or modified to fit Minecraft, we can show you what kind of detailing you want to make something stand out, using very simple techniques, that look like they took hours of work!
As a start, I will post my greenhouse design for the city of Tribus Mons ("Three Mountains") from my server.
As you can see, very basic design, looks good. of course, I also had the LB Photo Realism texture pack on with realistic water shader at night and while raining when I took this, but you can see how it's well organized the farms inside art, as well as how the greenhouse has a "curved" roof to add effect. Though it looks small from this angle, it is actually fairly large, each of the areas of wheat holding enough to feed 8 people (1 grouping per person) for an entire harvest season. As you may think, a city should have more food available than that - cities in minecraft have anywhere from 20 to 200 people. First, I have a small server, which is made up of two main cities. Second, Tribus Mons is a primarily destroyed city, so not many people are ment to even live there. Third, the swamp (extremely hard to see behind the greenhouse but is huge) once held the entire Tribus Mons Middle District, which consisted of housing and a lot of farmland.
Using the idea for the greenhouse, you could make a room that is about half the greenhouse to have a nice nighttime view or leave the design as is, except make the flooring solid (perhaps some water in the flooring for design) and have it be a bridge, which you could make however long you want, just section it to look more plausible. Or just replicate it and have a neat greenhouse for your city, which if it's all wheat, should be able to host 16 players as is.
