This scene gives us an idea how the inactive apartments could look like in-game: similar to City Living without that ceiling.
And this promotional picture shows that in build mode, there should be different colored lines to show which room belongs to which unit.
Also, that Hopscotch is large! And what's that "For Sale" sign I see there? "EgonVM;c-18322808" wrote:

Thank you for your help."EgonVM;c-18322868" wrote:

Pretty sure that's a "For Rent" sign. You can see it outside several of the buildings in the trailer.
My guess it's either purely decor, or it's functional and you click on it to access settings for the property such as rental prices and availability.- I wonder how shared spaces will work like laundry rooms or gyms...I wonder if sims you don't control but is a tenant will use them.

The Trailer on youtube ? here
The Night Market
The Shrine and the new dance
The food
The new death o.o'
That looks more like tai chi instead of a dance.
