Will Wright was one of the founders of Maxis, so the name suits him. It may also have something to do with avoiding a collision with Dr. Wright from Nintendo’s (awesome) SNES port of SimCity.

The game itself looks like a port of SimCity 2000, which I believe is the last SimCity game Wright had substantial input on. One could not see the sims or cars on the ground on that game either. It was the last really great version of the game, before feature bloat crept into it. It still required players to keep their buildings connected with power lines, and introduced the water system.

That game suffered, however, concerning the late-game Arcologies, which were essentially just self-contained megazones that artificially gave players a lot of people and tax revenue. No word on if this version contains them: if you find a screenshot containing a gigantic building many times taller than any other then it does.
