Info:
I mostly "build" - houses, apartments, recreational, and community lots.
I also create walls (and murals), floors, terrain paint, and various other recolors.
And I've written a few tutorials too. 😁
An archive of everything is on SFS: CatherineTCJD.

Homes of Character a 21-house series of homes from 1912 From A Book of House Plans: Homes of Character by W.H. Butterfield & H.W. Tuttle, 1912

I spent my formative years - ages 8 through 18 - in a place called Spring Hill, Florida. At that time it was just a "place" ...not yet incorporated into a town - still with dirt roads if you veered too far off from the main boulevard. It had one school, one small grocery, and one gas station with a convenience store - oh, thank Heaven! The whole development was designed as a "retirement" community, meant to entice New Yorkers to buy their Florida-dream-opportunity sight unseen, and move down to the land of eternal sunshine. (And many did!) In my angsty teenage years I was fond of calling it 'Sprung Hell' - with a HUGE eyeroll. I couldn't wait to move out and go off to Uni, some place far, far away. ...and I did. And I didn't look back for a loooong time. My folks still live there. In a different house, now. And, as they are getting up in years, I have been visiting more and more. And, with each visit, I am reminded that I really ought to sim this place! So... here we have a Sims 2 utopized map of a mid-century Florida-esque housing development. NOTE: There is very little resemblance to the now bustling RL town; but my memories were indeed the inspiration for this map. When I get the whole hood tricked out, I plan to offer it up as a complete hood/sub-hood for you to download and play.
