Part 1 of my Willow River Project...

or as I also call it, the huge tracts of land project. This originally came out of a desire to fill up some of the large chunks of real estate in Riverblossom Hills and ballooned into another out-of-control building fit. From right to left, parts 1, 2, and 3 are shown in the neighborhood shot: Willow River Plaza, Willow River Amusement Park, and Willow River Sports Complex. Coming soon, a toy store and two apartment buildings, one of which I promise will be CC-free. I haven't decided what to do with the upper left corner, yet. Perhaps a bowling alley. They will all sort of look as if they connect if you lay them out in the same order. Off to the left there, you can see the flat-roofed versions of O'Mackey's Electronic Emporium and Riverside Clinic and Spa before I prettied them up for upload. Now, on to the plaza itself...

This turned out as a quaint multi-use suburban shopping strip. It contains a really nice boutique, a restaurant, a bar and a game room. There is a little garden set up for outdoor weddings for when those dream dates turn out reeeaally well and a playground for the kiddies to have fun while their parents are pursuing grown-up activities.

The lot features a recolor of the maxis Tempest Cooktop from Cuas by Penguindude @ MTS2 . It did not seem to package with the lot so I included it in the .rar file for your convenience.


Custom Content Recommended But Not Required:


I play my personal lot with three modded objects that are not included. You do not need these to enjoy the lot but I will tell you about them so you can decide.

the Job Seeking Noticeboard by MogHughson @ MTS2
I love this because I have all the EPs and it would now take forever for my Sims to find a job. I don't even consider this a cheat because Maxis should have included one when they added all the careers, and your Sims do have to make the effort to go down to the plaza or community center or where ever you put it to sign up.

the Functional Beer Keg by SparkleSim @ MTS2
Okay, this is a cheat because it messes with their motive bars but it's so much fun and so appropriate for the setting that I can't resist.

the HotelPodium @ Simlogical
This doesn't have anything to do with hotels. It is an alternate restaurant podium. It keeps every townie and unselected Sim from rushing straight to the restaurant when they enter the lot unless they are hungry. This helps your playable Sim who may enter needing social which is unavailable from dining townies. It also has the effect of spreading the Sims throughout the lot. It's big enough as it is; they don't need to be bunched up in a corner. If you use this you can get some mad poker games going. I didn't have this in the lot when it was packaged so you would have to place it yourself.

Custom Content Required But Not Included:

If you've been following my work (yeah, right) you know I try to limit the CC to things that can be included but I'm hopelessly addicted to 4esf and Sims2Play. Well, if you'd downloaded everything in sight the last time I sent you over there, you wouldn't have to go back now, would you?
