About This File
This wonderful building is created by Born78. It is remarkably well detailed, and at night about 150 light sources makes it shine in the dark.
Born78 is a batter who was active here a couple of years ago. Born78 was one of the first Simtropolis members who promoted the W2W style of buildings, and the user who proposed the dimensions of W2W buildings and sidewalks that still most batters follow.
This building was also one of the first which was designed for a 45 degree street corner. But everything needs some trial and error, and Born78 did not get it all really right so the model did not fit the grid in the end. As Born78 stopped batting, this model was left unfinished. I had the opportunity to get the model from a fellow here some time ago and gave it a try to pick the house into pieces, and scale and rotate the pieces right on a baseplate made after accurate measurements. I also added the back facades and roofs as this was not found in the original design.
The building is based on a neo-renaissance-building at Stureplan in Stockholm as seen in the black and white shot. The building still stand today in excellent condition. It houses several posh botiques and bars, as well as offices in the upper floors.
This building comes as a ploppable landmark, free to plop but with no impacton Your city. Pure eyecandy that is!
Enjoy!
