Reno lots in Widespot
I am recreating my version of Widespot, where the town has expanded and incorporated to fit my story I've written. A few of the Widespot houses have been tweaked, most very slightly to fit my story, like the Hart house can't have a terrace in my story but needs a fully bordered lush patio, and it shares the graveyard with the church. I did a bit more on Rich Mann's house, though. It has to have a terrace in the front where he has the butler spying on the neighbors. As I was thinking of how to build that out, I happened to see the Landgraab house for the first time ( I know... there's still hoods I've never played), but I loved the idea that Rich would have seen that house and been influenced by the Landgraab's wealth, and, a bit, intimidated by old money. He would reno the house to mirror that influence, so here it is. I'm quite pleased and thought @Peni Griffin might enjoy seeing it. You can see the Landgraab house in the background for comparison - this isn't the real hood, just an empty one I'm using to build lots in, so I brought it in to consult while doing the reno. I think you can see the resemblance. The new Mann house fits really beautifully in my story because there are many "sim-wide" references in it that only hardcore simmers for TS2 would catch and this is one more.
