Tasaki, by Mattb325.
---------------------------------------

This is a Wall to wall (W2W) building from the main shopping street in Tokyo's Ginza district that caught my eye.

The Tasaki store has hundreds of slender light-boxes in various metallic shades attached to the main elevation which adds a bit of flair to an otherwise standard offering. Theses shimmering light-boxes give the building facade the effect of a lustrous pearl, which is apt, given that Tasaki is a high end jeweler.

Additionally, I have pared back any overtly Japanese imagery to ensure that this building will work equally well in either an Eastern or a Western styled city. In the real building, the party walls are blank, but I have included windows and billboards in this version to enable the building to work well in either a W2W streetscape or in a more open downtown environment where you don't want to see a big blank wall!

At 9 floors, this will still blend in with older, traditional streetscapes (as per the pictures which show a variety of new and old BATs) and is offered as a growable 1x1 lot for medium and high density zones on the Houston tileset only to ensure that it does not become weedy.

NOTE ABOUT DARK NITE vs MAXIS NITE:

There are two model files in this download. You must select the appropriate file from the download. The file suffixed with 'DN' is for those users with a night-time darkening mod installed. The file suffixed with 'MN' is for users who do not have any such mods installed.

If you are unsure whether you have a night-darkening mod installed, then choose the Maxis night version. 

If you use the dark nite version, you will need a dark nite mod. (http://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/23089-simfox-day-and-nite-modd/)

Medium W2W with a small space print are rare (although you're beginning to build a collection here !), and that one is perfect. And the night lights !!!*:thumb:
