It's a community lot. It's all about shopping! I just wanted to make a lot as big as they come and fill it with stuff to keep a Sim busy all day and night!
There's 2 buildings on it. The first is a rather grand affair on 2 floors with a large atrium and 4 shops. The downstairs is furnished with a games shop and a grocery store, upstairs is unfurnished for you to add whatever custom shops you like (there's a ton of shop objects on this site, so run a search and choose your faves).
The second building is 3 floors. The ground floor includes a fancy clothing store, a newsagent, toilets, and a coffee shop. The top floor has a restaurant, and recreation rooms. In the basement is a club with a karaoke bar, dancefloor, live band room and poker room.
There's also a bit of a garden with a pond.
There's not a lot a sim can't do on this lot .
There is no custom content needed to play this lot, but you will need both EPs (or at least NL).
I am asking for testing because I have noticed a slight issue in the restaurant, the Maitre D' doesn't always seem to seat sims properly, there's a lot of standing about. There is no reason this should happen, there's no hacks or custom content in this lot *at all*, and I am inclined to blame my PC which is a bit shakey right now (it is a large lot and runs a bit slow on my PC), I would appreciate feedback.
It would also be interesting to know if this will run without the uni EP, there is no uni items in there as far as I know.

- You may want to use the Sims2Pack Clean Installer instead of the game's installer, which will let you install sims and pets which may otherwise give errors about needing expansion packs. It also lets you choose what included content to install. Do NOT use Clean Installer to get around this error with lots and houses as that can cause your game to crash when attempting to use that lot. Get S2PCI here: Clean Installer Official Site.

Things you need to know
Here is my stuff, I hope you like it, and enjoy playing with is as much as I enjoy making it.
Primarily I'm a builder, I do some recolouring etc, but I know where my limits are! I love creating beautiful lots that function well in game. I'm a bit of a perfectionist, and a stickler for details, I could upload a lot more, but I wouldn't be happy with it.
I tend to go through phases of particular styles or types of lot, I take a concept and do it to death, selecting the best bits for upload before moving on.
I got really fed up with Sims when a folder of over 40,000 dowloads crippled my gameplay, so I went for a clean install, with no CC - well, a very limited amount of CC, and no build or buy mode stuff, which means that my lots as of August 2007 are all CC free!
Being a Sims addict I have every EP and Stuff pack. Be aware that if you are missing an EP, my lots WILL CRASH YOUR GAME! This is not my fault! EP lots are not backwards compatible! If however you are only missing a Stuff pack, my spies inform me that the lot will work, but you may be missing some content, and have to do some redecorating/furnishing.
As my lots are clean they are unlikely to cause problems in your game. If there is a problem with a lot please let me know, but not before considering the following:
1) Do you have all the correct EPs installed? Due to some confusion regarding stuff pack requirements and combos I would suggest that you apply this to SPs and EPs.
2) Have you installed the lot correctly in your game (I recommend clean installer)?
3) Have you installed any CC or other lots at a similiar time - are you sure the problem is my lot?
4) Have you checked the FAQs on this site for the most likely problems.
5) Do you have any global hacks or custom careers installed? I have seen the effects these have for myself and would suggest you temporarily remove them and test your game without them to see if you can reproduce the problem.
If you have completed the above steps I am more than happy to help you with your problem.
If you have any questions pertinent to a particular download, please ask in the comments of that DL so that others can benefit from the answers, it saves me a lot of PM time!
If you have questions about my work but not specific to a download please feel free to PM me, but please do not use me as a search engine for the FAQs/Wiki. You will get an answer a lot faster if you look for yourself!
I will take requests by PM. Requests are fulfilled faster when they are within my usual style, so do look at my uploads and consider whether your request would sit well amongst them. If you like my work and want something specific, or even have an vague concept you would like to see worked on, I would love to hear about it.
