Wharf 1
While being built for an industrial purpose, wooden piers like this one, found in many North American cities such as Seattle are now renovated and repurposed as office spaces, recreation areas and tourist attractions. With their rich history and uncommon appearance, these structures are quite remarkable and I really wanna do more of them. Especially in Seattle, the old piers complement the city’s connection to water and it’s landscape. I made them to represent a part of Seattle’s character. Imagine sitting in one of the wharf’s cafes watching the Elliot Bay and the skyline with it’s neon signs and the rainy weather… I love it!
I was really surprised of the lack of wharfs and piers on the workshop (except a very old asset from Khrysler), as they really add something to a city, so this is only the first one of at least two wharfs/piers I will release.
Don’t forget to use the Pier Signs with this. They will come in handy once there are more versions, or if this version is copied a few times. Made specifically for this, they allow giving every wharf an individual number – just like in real life.
This includes two versions, one for a variety of roof color variations and one for different wall colors. This allows placing them down multiple times without repitition.
Note that this file only includes the buildings themselves. I made sure to disable automatic terraforming, so you can easily place them on slopes. But still, placing them on water isn’t possible. For the piers around the buildings, I recommend the "Piers" or "Docks" by Ronyx69.
The files are called "Wharf 1a" and "Wharf 1b".
Also a "Wharf Lamp" is included, which the buildings use. You are able to use this freely as well.
The building acts a unique building, as I needed the larger footprint. No RICO definiton, just add it yourself. There is a guide for it. Several mods allow you to plop the building down more than once (Move It!, Find It!, and Ploppable RICO for example).
Google Maps location: HERE [www.google.de] Note that I used Pier 56 as only a loose inspiration. The shape and colors are similar, although I kinda did my own thing with the details.
Feel free to donate, it’s always VERY welcome!
Donations help justifying the enormous amount of time I spend on asset creation.
