BATs with neon ads or illuminated billboards have been looked for several times in the Can't find thread, often for creating Las Vegas or Times Square like areas. But I cannot think of a good way to search for them. So let's collect links here so they are easier to find in the future. Here are some to start: Aikatalo https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/27773-aikatalo/ Brill Building https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/34740-brill-building-new-york/ 200 W. 40th Street, NY https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/33850-200-w-40th-street-ny/ Kalevantorni https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/27370-kalevantorni/ Dotonbori Glico Building https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/29869-dotonbori-glico-building/

Sunny morning as the day starts with thunderstorms predicted for the evening. The streets bustle below with New Yorkers arriving and departing from Grand Central Station to begin the busy work day. Grand Central is the southern terminus of the Metro-North Railroad's Harlem, Hudson and New Haven Lines, serving the northern parts of the New York metropolitan area. It also contains a connection to the New York City Subway at Grand Central 42nd Street station. The terminal is the third-busiest train station in North America, after New York Penn Station and Toronto Union Station. Overlooking the Grand Central Terminal is the 59-story MetLife skyscraper previously named the Pan Am Building until the 80s when the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company bought the building from Pan American World Airways . Few blocks east of the Grand Central is the Chrysler Building. The Art Deco skyscraper stands1,046 ft above Lexington Ave in Manhattan's Turtle Bay neighborhood. At the far east of the Turtle Bay neighborhood is the United Nations Headquarters which has served since 1951. The land occupied by the United Nations Headquarters and the spaces of buildings that it rents are under the sole administration of the United Nations and not the U.S. government. They are technically extraterritorial through a treaty agreement with the U.S. government. However, in exchange for local police, fire protection, and other services, the United Nations agrees to acknowledge most local, state, and federal laws. FDR Drive passes through underneath the plaza of UN Headquarters. At the southern edge of Turtle Bay on Manhattan's East Side is the Tudor City apartment complex (Bottom Right Corner). The complex was one of the first residential skyscrapers to be built in the world at its time of completion in 1926. Various notable landmarks below at the Park Ave corridor to the North of the MetLife Building. Midtown Manhattan is home to some of New York City's most prominent skyscrapers. Sixth Avenue also know as Avenue of the Americas is a "skyscraper alley" of International Style buildings. The nearby Rockefeller Center consists of 19 commercial buildings covering 22 acres between 48th Street and 51st Street in Midtown. The 14 original Art Deco buildings, commissioned by the Rockefeller family, span the area between Fifth Avenue and Sixth Avenue, split by a large sunken square and a private street called Rockefeller Plaza. Later additions include 75 Rockefeller Plaza across 51st Street at the north end of Rockefeller Plaza, and four International Style buildings located on the west side of Sixth Avenue. To the west of the Avenue of Americas, is the major commercial intersection, tourist destination, entertainment center, and neighborhood known as Times Square. Brightly lit by numerous billboards and advertisements, Times Square stretches from West 42nd to West 47th Streets, and is sometimes referred to as "the Crossroads of the World", "the Center of the Universe", and "the heart of the world". One of the world's busiest pedestrian areas, it is also the hub of the Broadway Theater District and a major center of the world's entertainment industry. Times Square is one of the world's most visited tourist attractions, drawing an estimated 50 million visitors annually. Approximately 330,000 people pass through Times Square daily, many of them tourists, while over 460,000 pedestrians walk through Times Square on its busiest days. The neighborhood of Hell's Kitchen lies to the west and overlaps parts of Times Sq. Starting west of Eighth Avenue and the north side of 43rd Street, city zoning regulations generally limit buildings to six stories. As a result, most of the buildings are older, and are often walk-up apartments. T-storm clouds are beginning to accumulate in the tri-state area. Lightning suddenly strikes as thunder begins to rumble the skies. Robust thunder and lightning continued late into the evening, as night falls the rain picks up heavy. A flood warning has been issued for the county until 4AM in the morning..
