Newcrest

Atm mine is a modern city. All modern venues and houses imported from the gallery. I haven't done any landscaping though.

I was thinking of deleting everything and making a city. With actual matchy matchy stuff. A modern area would be nice.

Mine is chaotic housing, from treehouses to shacks to mansions.

Is that the one that came with get to work? I turned it into a hippie commune. There's also a hippie like spa for the rich and famous.

@Rouenpucelle : Mines chaos too! LOL
@imhappy : Hippie commune! That sounds like fun.

Thanks! It is fun! Holly Alto (B list actress) married Johnny Landgraab (who leads the commune). Holly likes to spend time in the spa and does a lot of yoga. Johnny tries to make a lot of herbs, but has a couple of those plants that you have to feed or will try and eat you.

Next door is Elsa and Lucas from Get Together who are married and devoted followers.
Lucas Munch's mom married Jacque Villariel, so once in awhile Max Villareal (half brother) stops by and causes havoc in the Elsa/Lucas household. Elsa is very involved in trying to convert new followers, while Lucas tries to live off the land.

All four are in a club where they dress up in the middle of the night and run around naked or something.

I am slowly building it up into a small town commercial area with shops, restaurants, cafes, etc. I find it very annoying that it's not possible to tell from the map what the lot surroundings are like and plan beforehand the look and purpose of the venues.

@imhappy Newcrest is the free additional neighbourhood, didn't come with nay pack.

Here are a couple of pictures of my Newcrest. Some of the houses are from the gallery and some I have built myself. Sorry about the gloomy weather.

In the upper neighbourhood there's a cafe, bar and three residential lots.

This is an old factory area in my game. There's a karaoke bar with rollerskating, underground bar, hipster restaurant and two residential lots.

The lower neighbourhood has restaurant, nightclub with bowling and three residential lots.

Mine is just pure chaos, I must say. I just threw in every nice gallery venue I could find, like 2 restaurants, a Japanese themed spa, a café, a nightclub/pool and 2 residential lots. Nothing really fits btw.

Depends on the game save. In some is hardly used, others a bit of this and that, and another is a test bed for experimental building projects. The only thing they all have in common is my restaurant/bar/gym/library/sort-of hotel combo I call Ladybird Landing. Not sure why, but it seems the restaurant of choice when other sims invite mine to a meal.
