Wilkinsburg Commercial W2W

Beskrivning
The second asset in a new series of buildings based on the once thriving, but now depressed town of Wilkinsburg, PA just outside of Pittsburgh.

This single story commercial building containing three storefronts sits to the left of the Struble Bros. building. It housed businesses that contributed to the once bustling town. From left to right:

Lawrence & Son Shwinn. My dad had told me that there had once been a Schwinn bike shop located here. While I could find almost no further information in my online searches, I did find mention of there being a location in Wilkinsburg (no address provided) from an old Schwinn advertisement. Through some further research, I'm about 90% sure that it was called Lawrence & Son.

Romano Tailors & Cleaners ...or perhaps it was Romano Cleaners & Tailors? I was able to find the name from an online obituary, but then I was unable to access it again, so it's a 50/50 shot of being correct.

Yuen Fong Laundry This was once a traditional Chinese hand laundry common in many cities across the US in the early to mid 20th Century, and one of up to a dozen once located within WIlkinsburg. Mr. Fong was friends with my grandfather, and used to grow grapes on an arbor behind the building. I vaguely remember going there when I was a child.


The building now sits vacant like many of the other buildings left in town.

This 2x2 low commercial growable is based on the Wilkinsburg, PA location, I made it true to scale, so it is narrower than the 2 unit (16M) lot. Due to this, it is recommended that you use Move It to achieve the wall to wall look.

Please give me a like with a "thumbs up" if you enjoy.


Features:

Level 1 commercial growable (2 tile wide lot)

Tris: 1332.
Textures: 1024 x 1024

Auto LOD:
It looked good enough to me without a custom one.

Have you ever thought about making these assets as the run down, abandoned buildings as seen in the last 2 pics? They would be great for an actual depressed area in the game.

Thanks everyone, I appreciate the comments!

@robmarrone: It's a growable, if you zone commercial it should grow eventually. I use the Plop The Growables mod. You should be able to search for "Wilkinsburg" in Find IT.

@sleepypirate: Cool! Do you remember when there were businesses in the bulding, or just the way it is now? I have some more things coming that you should be able to recognize too.

I subscribed, how do I put it in my game?

So good. I know this place, and stopped in my tracks when I saw it pop up. Thank you!

Dude,,, this shop has so much character to it. I can actually remember what it was like to go into one of these family shops.. The dusty air and the smell of the clothes inside... Very cool. Gotta have it.

Honestly you can find this building/facade style in all the mid-Atlantic coastal cities. Great contribution you've made here!

I love this! Sad to see what it's become but I'm so glad you've brought it back to life in some way. :)

Hey ! Nice one again :) and many thanks for the short background - story ! I really enjoy reading about something like this ... especially when its just an ordinary "unknown/unimportant" building. That also brings back some "life", particulary when you take a look at the last two rl - pictures ... very sad. :/
