Multi functional lot types

I was thinking they could use the same system they used with residential rentals to make a system of multi functional lots. Maybe like 3 lot types per lot max. It would definitely help the space issues we have in the tiny worlds they give us nowadays.

    I would love this so much. It would be great for example if your sims could own a shop and live in an apartment above it.

    What makes it sadder is that, just like cars, you can see these multi-functional lots around the neighborhood as props.

    I would love if my Sims could run an actual bar on their homelot - with the player setting the hours. Would there be some kind of "attraction" system that brings people around? The more expensive your house is, or the more mood-raising decorations you have, the greater chance for more customers?

    I think there should be shared business rentals that functional like bodegas in metropolitan areas. The ground level is the retail store/business and the upper level is a residential rental. Then you can own a store or business and also be a landlord (or live in the upstairs apartment instead of having to own a separate residential lot). Shared community lots and businesses such as: museum with gift shop/retail center, park with flea market/maker space, retail store with restaurant, or simply add shopping mall lot type with food court.

    Multifunctional lots would be amazing, or at least a functioning general lot type. :# I know there are some use cases for the current generic lot type (townies do not visit it, doesn't have any particular purpose, can't use it as an event venue), but I would love it if they could add another lot type to base game that is just a functional version of that. Call it like a Community Centre lot type or something. Make it so townies will visit it and you can have social events there, bars are functional, but it doesn't have a set of required items.

    Residential + Commercial lots would be a bit more difficult to pull off I think... but with the For Rent pack I'm sure they could take similar aspects from that. Instead of assigning residential units, you'd assign it as a commercial space. I like that idea.
