External constructions
Thanshin:
How often do you build external constructions?
I started not building anything at all but, as time passes, I'm starting to put all kinds of crap on the sunny part of the surface.
All surrounded by walls or other means of complete defense, but still constructed outside.
Aqueducts
Catapult towers.
Marksdwarves' training grounds
Windmills
Safe Bunkers for lost woodcutters or fishermen.
It's gone so far that I even start making small channeled squares scattered around my main entrance right from the beginning, so I can later safely dig up on their center and start a moated tower.
Sphalerite:
Most of my fortresses lately include massive above-ground structures. My current megaproject is an above-ground pyramid, where only tombs and water/power/magma utility systems are underground. Terribly undwarven of me, I know.
Kaiser Reinhard:
Waterwheels and power transmitters
Sniper towers spread out all across the map, connected by overhead pathways
Alternatively, bunkers connected by underground pathways
Drawbridges to seal off areas
Steel walls as barriers
I don't build aqueducts, water is supplied to my fort through underground pipes.

Yuck:
My barracks is just about always the entrance to my fortress and outside. Makes things easier when i want everybody but soldiers to NOT be there.
