What's your favorite apartment in San Myshuno?

My favorite neighborhood is the Spice District. However, my favorite apartment is 702 Zenview. The size is just right for a young family. It's a duplex. Plus, it has outdoor space with a slammin' view. I wish that there were a couple more just like it. <3

Anything in the spice district. I love the atmosphere there and it has the best scenery.

Difficult to choose one apartment, as I like a few. The largest apartment in the spice district is one of my favorites. I believe it's 20 Culpepper. Then 122 Hakim House in the Arts Quarter, or whichever the largest is. The one that has the expansive view of uptown. I also like the three story apartment in Uptown, 888 Spire.

i like the spice district apartments. i wish we had gotten more of those brownstone buildings instead of the weird futuristic buildings.

Brownstone is very American though. With the exception of one or two apartments, the rest look far more like what i call "normal" apartment buildings", while the brownstone ones look like copied from an American move or sitcom.

is that supposed to be a bad thing?
i just like the aesthetic, it reminds me of new york. the futuristic buildings on top of giant platforms in the sky don't remind me of anywhere.
anyway, as long as they had kept the apartments on the ground in an actual realistic setting i would have been fine with any architectural style. (..but i especially love brownstones)

My point was that if you're American, Brownstone feels "city" to you. To me? Not so mutch, it feels more "Friends" or "Cosby".

Confused about your comment because "Friends" and "Cosby" were most definitely located in cities, just as many brownstones are actually in cities like NYC, Philadelphia, Boston, DC, and Chicago.

My point is that it doesn't actually feel like I'm im a city, it feels like I'm watching a sitcom.

To add to this, San Myshuno is rather refreshing break from the other worlds which are mostly American save for Windenburg + Selvadorada. I like the diversity and players outside of the US or other areas like thise get a chance to see something that represents their country and reminds them of home.

I like all the Culpepper apartments and have somewhat interrelated families living in all four of them. They get played at various times during my larger rotation and they have some interesting dynamics with each other. I've redone all the interiors to suit myself (or my sims, at least) - I'm not much of a builder but for some reason I love remodeling apartments. Maybe it's because I don't have to bother with the exteriors so much. :P I also recently moved a family into the Fountainview Penthouse and love that one with the views on either side. I expanded it a bit to include a couple of bedrooms.

I haven't lived in all of them yet, but I remodeled 19 Culpepper House and am loving it there even with it needing TLC. My sim calls the landlord ALL THE TIME!! LOL She's made friends with him too. ;)

Besides the penthouses, my favorites are 888 Spire, the large Hakim apartment with a wall of windows facing Uptown (forgot the number), and 20 Culpepper. They're my favorites because of the space and views (I renovated all of them to amplify those features).

I like the Spice District apartment with the two apartments (can't remember the name). I had a family around the different apartments and that was the only area where I felt they were connected and interacting with the community. Also having the Flea Market right outside was handy! That particular apartment was nice with just one neighbor to deal with it.

I've actually only actively played sims living in the Spice District and Arts Quarter. I'm sure I'll eventually get around to the fancier apartments in other districts; I just don't have sims who earn that kind of money and want to move.

Raj Rasoya, for example, does make a lot of money as a cookbook author and master chef but he doesn't have any interest in moving out of his familial apartment. Some of his descendants will probably stay there for as long as I play this save. Salim Benali moved next door to the larger apartment near his old place. I don't see him leaving the Arts Quarter and he and his wife only have one kid so they won't outgrow their current apartment. I have a playable couple in my game living in Fountainview Penthouse who have renovated and are not going to move. I added a modern/elegant second story, a pool, an artist's studio, a spare bedroom that can eventually be for a child and a home office which can convert into more bedroom space if necessary. The downstairs is basically all open plan living and dining with an indoor pool.

I have a few other playable households in the Spice District. I haven't gotten beyond those two neighborhoods as far as residential exploration. My sims freely go to the festivals, gym and karaoke in those areas if they want. I play rotationally though so I switch between the various worlds quite a bit.

18 Culpepper. I can't imagine that any other neighborhood is as crazy and strange as the Spice District.

1 Torendi Tower. It has a pool, basketball court and smart toilets. It also has a lot of furniture too
