Community Hall, by Mattb325.
---------------------------------------
Made as a request, this building is based on the Ballhaus Ost in Berlin. Originally a mourning hall, it has since been converted to a community space and theatre.
Normally, when I receive a request, before I even agree to do it, one of the first things I do is look for similar BATs or lots that already exist. Certainly I wasn't expecting to find the Ballhaus Ost, but I was even more surprised to see that the broader definition of community halls did not exist either. This is despite the fact that community halls are everywhere in real life.
In real life, community halls were generally built for smaller towns or satellite suburbs near schools, churches, main shopping streets, train stations and so forth. Most of these buildings were constructed in the late 19th and early 20th Centuries on council land. In many cases they were funded entirely by the council.
They have an important function to play in community life: they host a whole variety of different uses and are rented out to community groups at a very low cost.
So things like free amateur theatre, pop-up art exhibitions, Alcoholics Anonymous, flower judging competitions, Cat and Dog fanciers judging, Rotary club meetings, Country Womens Association meetings, Church groups/Bible studies ,etc are all likely to take place in these venues.
This BAT is typical of the style: quite utilitarian and non-descript, even though the buildings themselves have classical elements. It is on a 2x3 lot and it is found in the reward menu.
It offers a handful of jobs and will boost surrounding desirability for business and residential, as well as provide landmark, park and mayor effects. It needs road, power and water. There is no monthly cost.
There are no restriction as to how often these lots can be placed.
