Bankstown Council Chambers and Civic Center, by Mattb325. --------------------------------------- This is a campus-style council chambers and civic center building. This is a modified model based on the auditorium, council offices and tourist information kiosk of a similarly scaled complex in suburban Sydney. This is a very specific architectural style that was popular during the 1960s and 1970s, when Tehran was one of the most sophisticated and popular destination for western tourists. Unfortunately, the tumultuous events of the late 1970's saw Persia (as Iran was then known) loose its shine with the West; but as with all exotic things popular in the west, this popularity found expression in borrowed architectural styles making their way into western cities. Civic architecture was an early adopter of this simplified Persian style; the main building of the Lincoln Center in New York is a particularly famous example of this style, but there are very few other examples in SC4. In the Persian style, all of the typical, classical ornamentation is reduced to very simple, strong geometric shapes. It was undoubtedly modern; but probably seen as a more sophisticated architectural expression than the somewhat similar atomic & googie styles which were prevalent at the time. Thankfully, all three styles fell out of fashion. This BAT functions as a government building and town hall in game. In addition to providing your sims with 310 highly desirable civic jobs, it will help alleviate the commercial demand caps that can hinder city development. It has also been modded to provide residential cap relief and increase desirability. It is designed for a 10x7 lot and this building looks best when used in either a suburban setting or to be break up a larger downtown area. * It is offered as a reward without needing to meet pre-existing conditions. * It is located in the REWARD Menu * It can be placed more than once in a city. * It DOES NOT over-write the ingame town hall (or any re-lotted versions there-of), so can be used in conjunction with the standard Maxis town hall reward. * It DOES NOT over-write any of my other town hall lots (so can be used in conjunction with these as well). --------------------------------------- STATS: Lot size : 10 x 7 Plop Cost: §72,000 Monthly Cost: §1,920 Budget Item: Government Buildings Occupant Groups: Reward, Courthouse, Tourist, TV Magnet Demand Created: Jobs§: 38, Jobs§§: 253, Jobs§§§: 19.

The Fredericton Federal Building is a Government of Canada Building in Fredericton, New Brunswick. The building occupies a prominent corner in Downtown Fredericton at the intersection of Queen and Regent Streets and currently provides office space for Human Resources and Skills Development Canada. The Federal Building was constructed in 1950 and its "stripped classical" style is apparent from its symmetrical design, third floor setback, extruded entranceway, limestone construction and relative lack of ornate detailing. The window insets also harken back to classical styles as their regular spacing and height creates an almost column like appearance. The Federal Building's interior has been modernized over the years, but the lobby still retains its authentic 1950s green Vitrolite tiles. The Federal Building is architecturally significant because it exemplifies a transition in architecture from classical forms to the new International style. A few short years after its construction, the Canadian government embraced modernity, making the Fredericton Federal Building one of the last classical buildings constructed by the federal government. The Fredericton Federal Building comes to SimCity as a 4x3 growable and 4x3 plopable. Four dependencies which, if you've used any of my other bats, you probably already have.

Marine House is a federal government office building located in Downtown Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada. The building has sat on the corner of Portland Street and Alderney Drive since the 1980s. Built on the site of a used car dealership, it started out as the Dartmouth Medical Centre and provided office space for a number of doctors. The federal government purchased the building in the early 2000s and converted it to general office space. Under government ownership, the building was renamed Marine House in honour of the major federal tenant, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. To feed and coffee all the office workers, there is a small privately run cafe on the ground floor. Marine House comes to SimCity as a 4x3 growable and a plopable. Three dependencies (you probably already have them if you've previously used my stuff).

The Saint John Customs Building is a federal government office building in Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada. The building is located in historic Uptown Saint John and is bound by Prince William, Water and Duke Streets. The building is actually the third Customs Building to grace the Saint John waterfront. The first Customs Building was lost, along with the rest of Saint John, in the Great Fire of 1877. After the fire, a bigger and better Customs Building was constructed. The second Customs Building was an architectural masterpiece that boasted ornate stone carvings, a large central dome and two towers. Sadly, in an act of architectural vandalism, it was demolished and was replaced with the current Customs Building in the late 1950s. All that remains of the second Customs Building is part of the massive stone foundation, which is being used as a retaining wall in the property's parking lot. The modern Customs Building provides space for 11 different federal departments and agencies: Veteran Affairs Canada, Public Works and Government Services Canada, Industry Canada, Citizenship and Immigration, Canada Border Services Agency, Royal Canadian Mounted Police, Department of National Defence, Environment Canada, Health Canada, Canadian Food Inspection Agency and Transport Canada. The Customs Building comes to SC4 as a growable and plopable on a 4x3 lot. Three dependencies: BSC Essentials (mandatory, query) BSC Mega Props CP Vol01 (optional, planter, cars) BSC Texture Pack Cycledogg Vol 1 (mandatory, overlay textures)- 18 Comments

The Shelburne Government of Canada Building (GOCB) is a federal government office building in Shelburne, Nova Scotia. The building was constructed in 1964 during the post-war expansion of the federal government and is one of many GOCBs that were built during the era. A modernist federal government building became a typical feature in small town Atlantic Canada (Montague, Antigonish, Spring Hill, Lunenburg etc). In recent decades, as Atlantic Canada has become more urbanized, the federal government has increasingly concentrated services in larger urban centres. As a result, many small town GOCBs have been left largely empty with just Canada Post as a tenant. Some have been sold to private owners, allowing the federal government to lease space back as a tenant, but a number of buildings, including the Shelburne GOCB, still remain under federal ownership. The Shelburne GOCB provides space for Canada Post and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency. The Shelburne GOCB comes to SimCity with two versions, one with a wheelchair ramp on the front like the real building and one with just stairs that will fit on a smaller lot. The rampless version fits on a 3x3 while the ramp version fits on a 3x4.
