What Are You Gonna Do W/Orphan Alley?

the challenge is what's it going to back up against that will mesh with it...
--> maybe avoid that problem by putting it in the top right corner of town. Or mixed-zone it with factories like the Heights ones & Spooky houses like a run-down industrial area / ghetto including:
wrecked brown houses, brown house farm, Terminus Station buildings, Recycling Centers, spooky houses, the burning building from Act one, Springfield Arms appartments (+ others), Muntz's, Cletus', the gun shop (friends prize), the Coconut Babaloo's falling apart skin, your industrial section of town with factories, GulpNBlow, Grocery / Try N Save, green park, ShotKickers, etc..

Maybe the fight area is bordered by streets but on the other side of the street the same open area continues as an urban concrete jungle decorated with broken streetlights from act 3, benches, basketball court, ....
  • Storage but I might move it near the mountains where I have my SH factories, if I can get it to look right.
  • I just got Dr. Crab, and couldn't be happier this event is done. Feels Good Man!! I was waiting until it was over to make my Zenith City and figure out what I was going to do with Orphan Alley.. I don't have any other movie studios, so I created a movie studio with One Week Wonders and used Orphan Alley as a back lot, and filled in with misc. stuff from this event.. I think it fits pretty well there. http://oi65.tinypic.com/2wg5hc2.jpg

    Same. As soon as I got Dr. Crab I was so happy that it was all finished. Loved the event but over it now. As for Orphan Alley, I'm hoping it will have a payout otherwise because of it's size and my lack of land it may go into storage.
  • Some great designs! Kudos!

    I'd have to really reorganize a lot to do something similar though, so I'm afraid it's straight to storage for me
  • Before reading this I'd never even considered putting it with my film lot but it meshes perfectly with the Radioactive Man film set so that's a definite bonus :D

    It's going straight into storage. It's big, ugly. and fits nowhere in my town. I just hope they fix the Juice Factory so we can go back between the original and damaged designs.

    Im happy with my placement :)


    I like what you have done as well, with all of the other run down buildings and the steel mill, it fits nicely together.
