THE Community Lot

So, the idea is it has to be a rabbit hole? Because if you just wanted to create an apartment building, you would not need a mesher, right? I wouldn't want my controlled Sims to live in a rabbit hole, so I assume the idea is just to introduce more Sims you don't play into the neighborhood?
Well, the idea is that while it is probably not the most DESIRABLE place for a sim to live, it is rather difficult to find anything worth buying on 16K.

Additionally most YAs I know would rather live in a crappy apartment that needs to be fumigated on a weekly basis than stay at Mommy's. Something like that could save the Bunch kids from being total losers, and without Mum and Dad bringing home at least some cash, they might even move their lazy asses and get jobs eventually.

I know. And you cannot, I assume, make it so they could buy the individual apartments, correct? Sort of like a coop/condo situation? Then they could pay a maintenance fee. Think about that one. Can you mod the game to allow apartment style living with say the doors from Apartment Life or with the lockable doors currently available? I don't recall even having the option to buy individual apartments in Apartment Life. No, that was renting. Would that be an option? I started to build an apartment building, however, it is useless if the game cannot be modified to allow either buying individual units or renting them.
And, the other idea is well worth pursuing because that would allow space for more unplayed Sims. More interesting, though, is the abililty to modify the existing neighborhoods.
Oh, and by the way, thanks for "dropoldromances". Haven't tried it yet in game - I will try it on Brad Parrish. If you still have my SaveGame file, what do you think about how I modified the old Sekemoto house (which is where the Parrish family lives) or if you go to the Davis family (which is my main family) how I modified the existing EAxi's house they live in (I did this because the lot has the Beautiful Vista moodlet). Waiting for someone to find and duplicate that spawner or whatever it is.

Sims3Addicted made a huge Community lot, an All-In-One lot :o
It's designed for replacing the Central Park because of the size (64x64), but after having it you can erase all the other lots it replaces.
On the lot, you'll find: The Grocery Store; Theater; Diner; Business Building (x2) Spa/Salon; Book Store; Police Department; Restaurant Playground; BBQ Area; Chess Board; Picnic Blankets (You'll need to bring your picnic basket!);Bathroom Facilities; Nursery (See notes); Sleeping Facilities (See notes)
You can download it here: http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=364827
I am currently testing this in my game. So far, seems to work well. However, of note: If you previously owned any of the businesses now represented on this lot, it seems you are unable to "collect money". Therefore, you need to sell the deed first, and then buy it back. Will report back any findings after further testing. However, for my rock star Sim, the autograph session went VERY well here. Many more people in attendance. Zerg swarming may become a problem, however, and if it does, AwesomeMod has a fix for that.
Also, if you might want to revert to the old Central Park, save a copy of it to your library before bulldozing. I did not have lot in the library, so thankfully I checked before bulldozing. Have also bulldozed all the old community lots this replaces, which opens up a wealth of new lots for your Sims in the downtown area.
Edit: Oops, double-posted!

Hm...I got the Beautiful Vista Moodlet on the beach lot that I changed from comunity to Residential in the non Riverview Hood. But the house was a basic tiny place and had no pretty interiors. I wondered why it had that moodlet. I mean, the beach *is* a pretty place to live, but if you are living in a tiny, messy run down looking lot, made from cheap items, how do you get the impression of a Beautifull Vista ;D :o
Also, I seem to Remember someone had a Lockable Door for Sims3? I know that would not Help Pescado with his ResiBlock...But it might be modafiable?
What about the freeRealEstate cheat, and those lockable doors with say, 2-3 sets of stairs to seperate the floors up?
