I do hope to see some of yours. Most of time I copy things from the game or I check blueprints.
@emorrill Thanks a bunch for the tag, I wouldn't have seen it if you hadn't. That's super cool! :-D

And I have always LOVED Willowglen Amphitheater. You made some wonderful additions to it.
@thuggishsplicer YES! I've had to throw things on the lot for entertainment in the past. Never thought to add the stage from Showtime (though to be fair at the time I was playing in Twinbrook I didn't have Showtime. ). Michael and Jenni Holland from my Holland Family story were married there.
I wonder if EA left the lot bare so that we as the players could make it our own?
If you want, I can take screenshots to show you.
The Hollands were a fun bunch. Jenni, in my game, got married to Goodwin and they must have 4 children! Are the Hollands bin sims? I think I've seen Michael once.
I didn't bin all of them like I should have. But I have their save safely tucked away so I can work on doing that later.
I did upload Michael to the exchange once...I think.
I do miss the Hollands...someday I need to pick them back up so I can finish their story, but man, I just hit a terrible writer's block with them.
Let's begin with the Consigment Store:

Ground floor is a dinner that uses Hogan’s Deep-Fried Diner Starter Kit.

I moved all the consignment store itens to the second floor.

And the third floor is temporarily an arcade.

This is how the museum looks like.

I closed the third floor (and I added a skip floor marker). The second floor is that workshop I mentioned.

I used many items from Prism Art Studio.

I didn't change anything on the ground floor, but it's here. Unfortunately, there's an urn on the third floor... so, deleting the museum can become a huge problem.

First floor features a swimming pool, a gym with hot tub, library with play room, kitchen, bathrooms, 4 rooms with twin beds, 3 rooms with single beds. The second floor features two suites, the red one and the blue one.
These bedrooms had colors because I intend to implement "Barrier to Entry System" and make the sim pay a little extra to use those facilities. The single bed rooms would also be used the same way, and that's why they're green.
The place has three exits. Here two random pictures. I haven't tested the place with my sims yet.

One limitation is that I wasn't able to save it with the Adventure board. Also, I can't move the board around without moveobjects on. So I uploaded as "visitors allowed" temporarily (it's still a VIP) as backup. (Link: https://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=9445055)
Another comment, the shape of the Inn is inspired by the location Agatha Christie sent Hercule Poirot to in "Murder in Mesopotamia".Also, the name matches the names of the houses in the world and it's also the name of the Inn Korra and friends rented a room in the episode "The Stakeout". ;-D
Speaking of buildings, I'd like to share my version of Sunset Valley Library as a 30x30 lot. I rebuilt the whole place from scratch and used a different color scheme for the interior. I think it needs a review (I recall that I added two female bathroom doors). I also removed the seasons changes. There are chess tables and more computers in my version. In case someone feels interested before I re-upload with possible fixes, here's the link: https://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=9444704
Very cool builds 😀🌟
