Combination MetLife and Grand Central

[vanderveenre 14]

How many people would be interested in a combination MetLife and Grand Central Lot...7x16.  This size was determined for people making a New York City map with streets every 5 tiles (leaving 4 tiles between streets for buildings).  This is how I set up my map before I got into BATing.  Then I ran into a problem with my MetLife building and Helmsley building....my streets wouldn't line up.  This is because the MetLife in reality is connected to Grand Central but not in the game...unless I make a prop out of my MetLife and add that too the Grand Central lot.  Only problem is that there is some overlapping.  Check out the pictures below.

See what I mean.  However, this minor overlaping I think is acceptable if you want to keep your streets and ave correct.  Again...let me know what you think and I can work on updating the dat file so that it functions properly.

It's done.  Fully functional as a transit point for car/bus/ped/subway.  The subway line needs to connect to the back/middle of the Grand Central Terminal to function (as far as I can tell).  I updated my MetLifeBuilding to include the old stand alone building and the new combo building....enjoy.
