Amsterdam Shopping Arcade
A set of 5 commercial buildings with some old city style where you can shop protected from the elements by an arcade that covers the sidewalk. They will look at home in any european style city. The straight, corner and centerpiece buildings are growables. The two curved buildings require the RICO mod if you want to place them more than once. Put several of these buildings together and they will resemble a single larger building with a shape of your choosing!
The Plop the Growables mod is the easiest way to place these buildings just where you want them. Using the Loading Screen mod is recommended to save some memory because all 5 buildings use the same textures. For best alignment and for making the curved buildings line up with the road, MoveIt is virtually required.
Built in 1898 in the Raadhuisstraat in Amsterdam, this design by architect A.L. van Gendt is noteworthy for its fluent curve following the road, its baroque design and of course the arcade. The U on the ornamental shield of the centerpiece is the intial of the Utrecht life insurance company that originally commisioned the building. Here it is on Google streetview[www.google.com].
