TS3 Build - Limelight club NYC
Built by Waterheart197 for Midnight Hollow. Uses LN, AB, WA, 70s80s90s, FastLane(2-4 items), LoudFastClash, FrontRowCenter, GothiqueLibrary, Tudor window, OhMyGoth, RoarHeights sectional, BohGar string light, Morocco light, JazzAge stool, 50s stool, and free award-themed store content. This is a recreation of the infamous Limelight nightclub which was open from '83-'98, based solely on available photos. Formerly the Episocopal Church of the Holy Communion, this historical building had fifteen thousand people showing up nightly to party with no regard to sanctity.
I have a LOT of photos to show this massive build off, so I'm just sharing a google drive link to a folder with the photos instead. I have too many details I want to share lol. For convenience, I've also put the Sims3Pack and package files in there. But those files are also in the same simfileshare folder as all of my other Midnight Hollow builds http://simfileshare.net/folder/174973/

Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormon) tabernacle. Foundation stone reads: "Enmore Tabernacle. Opened for Divine Service 24th October 1886". No getting away from Gothic revival influence in that era. Enmore.

ngl i think the reason so many people were willing to agree with the longass twitter thread by an obvious Western Traditionalist (read: white supremacist) was because we rarely ever get the opportunity to point out our dissatisfaction with this current era of industrialized/modernized/minimalist aesthetics. obviously ornate architecture is not a phenomenon relegated to “the west,” but it wouldn’t be wrong either to point to a city such as paris and complain about the fact that whenever people try to build something new there, its sleek, personality-less aesthetic clashes violently with the otherwise cohesive, appealing, traditional architecture of paris we are all so accustomed to and appreciate (and naturally, parisians do complain about this degradation of their city constantly). maybe it’s an issue with our era of capitalism, the way that genuine craft and artistry has been neglected in favor of immediate gratification and constant expansion, any sort of product existing solely for the sake of profit. but honestly, even if minimalism as a movement and industrialized architecture wasn’t a product of capitalist interests, it does still look ugly as fuck, and there are perfectly valid ways to express that sentiment without sounding like a fucking nazi.
