Skate Rink...ugh...No More!!

I made mine into a train station. I really like the gymnasium idea.

    Forgive me if this has been discussed a lot, but I have been looking for something to do with the ugly rink. Finally it hit me, I tucked behind the high school and boom - it's a gymnasium for the high school. Looks awesome!!


    Screenshot? :)

    I had a similar idea from a different thread:

    Although a lot of the buildings' scaling bothers me, the bowling alley has always annoyed me the most. How do you expect there to be bowling lanes in such a small building?

    The skating rink has to be one of the most versatile buildings available (see @psukegreen and @mpwarner). I've always wanted to make a "What buildings have you re-purposed?" thread...for creative reasons or lack of space, it's nice to see items used (and used well) for other reasons. There are a bunch of great ideas for the training wall, but my favorite was when somebody slapped the Southern Cracker Factory behind the Casino - it passed quite nicely as a Casino/Hotel Combo.
  • Very cool idea I love it! Do you have the beam? That would be a nice touch :-)

    I kept mine as an ice rink, I really like the building :-)
