hardest event items to design around?

If you had to make a top 3 with the events that brought the ugliest items to the game (those that you either store as soon as the event is over or have a hard time trying to design around it) which one's come to your mind?

SCI FI EVENT DISQUALIFIED AS THIS IS A TOP 3 FOR AMATEURS AND NOT FOR PROFESSIONALS IN UGLINESS.

Mine is:

3. Monorail: I hate it because I want a huge Monorail around my town but I have to move a lot of stuff since the rails sometimes cover the buildings behind them and other times I have to move lot of stuff to make the rails be aligned.

2. Clash Of Clones: Back in the day the castles were a novelty in the game and we loved it, but now, with all the other castles added to the game through the years, those old castles don't fit anywhere, and some of the walls look like Legos. awful.

1. Springfield Heights: UGH, those ridiculously huge buildings! and the worst thing is you have to have a lot of them out of your storage due to the hidden multiplier.

Which ones are your 3?

    2. Death Mountain. I don't remember what event it is from, but it just does not fit in. I like the look sorta, so will continue to try to make it work. So far, it is off to the side looking silly.


    felt the same at first, now i go with a lazy approach by surrounding it with river, as it sized 12 x 12, so it looks like a small island
  • 1. Geriatric Medicine

    2. Re-Neducation Center

    3. One Week Wonder Films

    forward to see if anyone has good ideas for these buildings

    I have a medical centric district for item 1. For item 3 I have a film studio district. I placed item 2 in the tomorrow land area

    Orphan Alley, for sure. Big, ugly, can't be rotated. Frustrating. Unless it's in a corner, you need to move it forward so it does not obscure something else. The good thing about it is you can build off each side, but it has to be the corner piece. Monorail looks okay running behind it but your options are limited.


    i always liked the look of the orphan alley, just didn't like how thin the buildings were. so, i added some classic mansion pieces to beef it up.... give it the look of an area under gentrification.
