Hello everyone,

I recently downloaded a map of Seattle, and I have many detailed road maps for the region. I'm planning on making a replica of the Puget Sound Region, stretching from Seattle to Newcastle to Bellevue. If anyone who knows of some buildings in the Puget Sound area and is good with the whole BAT thing and would like to make a building or two, I'd be incredibly thankful.
 
Thanks in advance to everyone!

1.  More small elementary schools, same stats as the basic Maxis model, just some different looks for variety.  SimGoober did a great larger one.

2.  A good Burger King.
 
3.  Post Offices.
 
4.  Maybe this should be a mod suggestion, but the most standard Maxis houses are missing something very important - garages!  Who builds houses without attached garages IRL these days?
 
Just some thoughts.  Thanks to all of the great BATers and modders on this site who have made this game infinitely more interesting and fun!

There is a pretty good looking petro can, just search for it. There are some shell's too, but they don't look like most of the Canadian ones. Esso is badly needed... Agree'd. Other canadian stations needed include: definitly Husky/Mohawk, how did this huge chain get missed? Smaller brands like Turbo, Fasgas Tempo or Domo would all be nice. Here is a site with pics www.gassigns.org

Ill Tonkso has recently released the first Birmingham England Landmark. The Birmingham Rotunda, has become quite a popular BAT and has seen a few requests for a Birmingham's New Tallest. The sleek Slender Holloway Circus Tower.

I am now asking for you talented BATers to start on the project of Holloway Circus Tower. It is a nice High-Rise and  has a just cause to be on the STEX.
 
Here is some pics to give you inspiration.

 **Some typical building blocks which is 2x2 to 3x3 in white colour with mostly cross-shaped
 and  even Y-shaped and H-shaped
,which can be easily found in Hong Kong
(usually only in Chinese name and simple design)

 Also Some  huge residental buildings blocks are also recommended
 which is Single tower of 2x2 without base and 2x3 with the base,terrace
/Estate versions of 2-4 towers size for 4x3 to 4x6 with the huge terrace (only8,10and11) :
  *8Whampoa Estate,(mid density$$)
 *9Kornhill,($$)
*10 Mei Foo Sun Chuen($),

    I really need a Washington Metro Station done for my city journal.  Brenda_Xne already has started it but couldn't finish due to computer issues.  The models are already done.  Please consider.  PM me if you're up to the task. Thanks!

PS: I have thousands, yes thousands of pictures if needed!

Also, a good project for SimGoober would be a plopable and growable Cheesecake Factory (resturant). He could also put one in an upcoming mall if he makes one.

There's a Circuit City on the STEX already. I've got it. Mind you, at the time of posting the STEX was down, and it was the day before this was posted as well (I wanted to search for Malls but it was under maintanance).

EDIT: The STEX is back up. Please can I have the Millemium Dome, in Greenwich, London, UK (Not the one in CT). Yes, the massive upside down breakfast bowl that cost

Some Items which would HELP an AMAZING amount

1.Small town hockey rinks are needed. Seating capacity's of 1500-2500 would be perfect.

2. Something that would be really cool for small towns would be a colour change to the Nexis Old Style Grain elevator. New colours and new logo's for the front of it would re invent this awesome BAT.

A Park Gate entrance would be usefull

Why is there no TRAVELODGE??? This chain is everywhere in North Amearica or what abpout its sibling Thriftlodge?

Small town Motels and Hotels would be awesome. The Reds Roadside motel was great, but there is only that one.

Small town grocery store

Also a Large ploppable Grain terminal would be great, None of the ploppable ones in Simtropolis will work for me, and they are imperitive for making a rural region.

Shopping mall with Anchor stores on both sides IE Zellers and Safeway or something like that.

Thanks so much.

I'm not really requesting a particular building, but rather a particular style. I don't if anyone else would be interested, but I have always had a certain liking for neo-gothic architecture, and I think it would be great to see some buildings in that style, like some of the old New York skyscrapers. Some more Art-Deco would be nice as well. They don't have to be high-rises, mid-rises or smaller buildings would be nice as well. And if anyone does take me up on this, how about the commercial skyscrapers being CO$$ instead of CO$$$?
