Real World Designs in Your TSTO Towns

I like to create workable and fun designs that would actually work in the real world.

For example in my town I have....


  • The answer to how the Plow King keeps in business in the summer months (look behind the Nuke Power Plant I will eventually post below)
  • A fully workable Prison area with secure gate system, inmate yard areas, etc... (I actually used to be a corrections office in my past professional life)
  • A realistic way to include dinosaurs and Egyptian pyramids (look at my Natural History Museum design I will eventually post below)
  • I like to re-purpose items so it makes a unique new structure or design (i.e. look at my High School Gym which is really the ice skating rink I will eventually post, or extended terminals in my airport, etc...)
  • I have a full Religious District that covers Christians to Jews to Pagans to Pastry Worshipers
  • I also like the little real world details, like one of my Krusty Burgers has a working drive through, and my Grade school has a pick up kids driving area, a track and football field for the high school, a realistic dump / recycling area, etc...
  • I have a fun center area that even includes a working hedge maze
  • A realistic Airport with extended runways, passenger drop off area, and a helipad, etc...


I will share all the examples above plus more in this thread. Please feel free to share some of your most awesome designs with real world inspiration.

===================================================
Want to know how the Plow King keeps in business in the summer months?


===================================================
How can you make dinosaurs and ancient Egypt work into your town in a real world natural way? Just create a Natural History Museum without outside displays.....


===================================================
A fully workable Prison area with secure gate system, inmate yard areas, etc...



==================================================
Full Army Training Obstacle Course



==================================================
Elementary & High Schools. This a good example reusing a building for a different purpose. I used the skating rink as the High School gym. It also has a football field with a dirt track around it.



=================================================
DMV with full onsite driving test course......




Just a heads up that I updated this post with several new examples......@daved7637397 @fastshadow2 @ewestbury90 @1pillform @jmlgg @mirko_283 @KrustyBrand
