That building looks great and has some interesting details such as those blocky HVACs peppered all over the roof. I also like how you can see the windows on the shaded side. *:)

I'm just wondering about its scale, especially compared to those cars and trucks around it. Could it be that the model ended up somewhat small, or is that some misperception on my end?

Maybe! I'll look into that. I know I tried to make the building a 3x3 area as I thought it felt right for the location referenced. It could be 3x4 though I would think.

This is where I based it off of with some creative license.

I think @T Wrecks is onto something. It does feel like the building could be slightly bigger, but that is really just my opinion.

I'll probably, in the future, like next week, make it more elongated looking at my stuff here (not now because I have plans this weekend). I don't think the width is bad but the length and height could be a little more. I know that having been in this actual building they use two floors of windows to look like there is more going on even though there is only one floor.

Here it is in comparison to your Kmart, @RRetail. It's not really that big, in terms of the size of the building in real life, but It definitely needs to be taller. It's more a smaller size warehouse. I'll definitely work on it next week.

Hello @pclark06,

Running SC4 Data Node reveals a weird file from this download. There are no entries from the model (marked as NONE). I'm not sure what to make of it? Safe to remove?

Yes. Probably a failed export or something. That's what usually happens.
