@BreeMiles thank you for your kind words.
@mightysprite love you ideas for apartments, but I have not started building in New Crest yet. That is my plan to build base game only in that world and I thought the best place for apartments would be as shown below. No 1 would be apartments and no 2 would be a park of some sorts.
This will be an ideal way to build apartments in that lot. The picture below was built by @SimsNolana but ours will be base game only. It will be quite the challenge
@HomeMama what do you think about the above idea? BTW I have completed the house that I posted earlier, will load on to the gallery tonight.

It's this hospital. I think it came in shortly after the last edit.

However, there's an empty bigger lot (I forget, maybe 40x30) at the back of Newcrest across from the two little lots. Would that work? Here:

P.S. I love your Mediterranean home! It's beautiful. Thank you so much!
This is the build I am working on. It's quite large and I am dreading furnishing it.
@abelhinha35 Oh WOW!! That's incredible!! I can't wait to work on the next edit. I can't quite yet, but I'll get to it pretty soon. Thank y'all soooo very much!
I have another idea for a smaller apartment building in a lower-income sort of area, is there somewhere in Oasis Springs that would work?
Great! I'm looking forward to seeing what you do. As far as I know, this one is still open and is our lower-income area of Oasis Springs.

I don't know if I'll have time tomorrow, but I know we need another edit really soon, so that we know what all is still available. Please enter your submission entry forms for any of the stuff you'd like to include. I'll try and get on it Thursday or Friday.

@Cavapoo_King I really love your family home vibe with making the homes look lived in. Two of yours are in this neighborhood, so I thought you might have an idea for this last spot.

I would like to see a daycare somewhere in one of the worlds...possibly here. I have a house built for this spot, too, if someone builds the daycare elsewhere. I just love to imagine where my sims kids are going when it says they're off to daycare or school.

These three spots are for commercial venues. I would like an old town feel, but updated and higher end...like they've been there forever, but the community took great pains in making sure their historical beauty was preserved. The only residential that would fit here is an old historical apartment above a cafe or diner. Something like that. I think that could work for your apartment spot @mightysprite .
The other two might be a college and a museum, or maybe a retail store (obviously not functional as such, since it's base game), where it looks and feels like an antique store. I'm totally up for ideas.

I've still got to work on the inside of my apartments. I didn't want them to look identical on the inside, just the outside. I'm currently working on furnishing the trailer park. I'll get to the apartments soon. I'm still open to someone or multiple someone's furnishing them. Wouldn't it be awesome if each of us decorated our own apartment within them our own personal style? Let me know if you want to do that. Maybe we can figure out how to progressively fill them.

First of all, look how full it's getting!!! Ahhhh...I'm so excited!! You guys are like a dream team. I put the park that Issabella made. It's so cool and it'll be great for those rags to riches challenges. I'm sorry that @Cavapoo_King mansion had to go, though. Wasn't it so cool!

@BreeMiles retirement community gives me so many ideas for gameplay with the seniors! It definitely set the tone for an upscale, but totally not showy, neighborhood. The kind of neighborhood I'd like to live in. @abelhinha35 is working on the large lot in this neighborhood, if I'm not mistaken. I don't know if anyone has snagged that last 20x30, but it's prime real estate, for sure.

This is the last spot in our low-income neighborhood, which I just adore. I believe our newest team member, @mightysprite is working on some apartments to fit right in. Welcome aboard, Mightysprite...glad to have you.
And @BreeMiles snagged herself a Maxis fav!!! That's just absolutely amazing!

This part of town reminds me of home. Kind of a mixture of custom built homes, ranging in style and age. It gives me a feeling of being welcome and relaxed. I'd like to keep that eclectic feeling for the rest of these lots, either residential, or the kind of commercial that would be right at home along side the others...a daycare or library, or maybe a park.

And then @proffittm30 blew us out of the water with how stunning she made my hospital shell!! I could have never done that well. It really took my breath away. Amazing! Whether the apartments end up here beside the hospital, or in Willowcreek, either will be beautiful. We need another city feeling lot for the 30x30. Any ideas? This sort of reminds me of an are that's going to build higher, but hasn't quite got off the ground yet. City but not yet. I don't know if that makes sense.

This strip is ultra modern and high tech. And boy, proffittm30 set the bar high! Just Stunning. These should mostly be houses, but the one on the end might could be something else. I'm open to ideas.

I really appreciate all of you!
I haven't published the next edit, but I thought some pictures ahead of time might be helpful. Please try and get your next submissions in by Friday.
Thanks so so much! We're almost there!! I'm not in a hurry, but it does seem to be moving fast. Also, if I've left out a build you really thought I was using, please let me know. I don't want to miss out on any of your great builds because I wan't paying attention.
Thank you @homemama, I am really am enjoying building this save file with y'all.
@HomeMama, what build would you like next to the hospital. I was think an apartment complex with a coffee shop would fit in quite well and just in front of that lot a small park. The apartment building should be a more modern build to compliment the hospital. BTW how do the sims use the hospital?
I'm so glad you're enjoying it!
Thank you so much! I always wanted to put apartments on that strip. It just seems like such a great spot to live and go jogging along the water.
I think an apartment complex would be perfect there! I would love a coffee shop. You might even start it out as a community lot (maybe general?) so that anyone could sleep there and use it. It's easy enough to change it to residential if they really want to buy it. I've lived on community lots before and it worked quite nicely. I can't wait to have a coffee shop!
Since it's base game, no one can use the hospital in a way that makes sense to a hospital. However, it makes for a good backdrop to stories for someone who blogs or maybe one of the story tellers on here (I forget what that's called). But even places like that will be so fun to explore and there's bound to be a couple of skill-building opportunities. Also, I just feel more connected to my sims if the world has that filled-out look to it.
I haven't furnished it yet though.
That would work perfect in the same neighborhood with your other houses!! That's beautiful! If that's where you're talking about. If it won't fit in the small lot that's left, I can move my big one out. Mine doesn't fit the vibe of that neighborhood like this one does. What size is it?
Is this the neighborhood you mean?

Edited to add...it's your house in the big lot. Ha. Mine was made for that bigger size and was the one I remembered. I squeezed it into that other one, lol. So hopefully yours fits in that spot that's left.
@mightysprite Very nice. Looking forward to seeing the final product.
Isn't that lot a 30x20?
