So I'm trying something new. Normally I stick to fantasy / medieval stuff, but recently I have been branching out. This time it is a modern luxury apartment building.

This is a (somewhat stylized) re-creation of an actual building. I did my best to make it as realistic and full-featured as I could while at the same time sticking closely to the original floor plan. I based the build on pictures I took of the building, floor-plans I found online, the "3D view" in GoogleEarth, and a dollop of good old imagination to fill in the gaps where my reference materials failed me. My aim was less to create a visually spectacular but hollow shell, than it was to create a building with a certain solid realism to it. While I do think the end result has a simplistic beauty to it that wasn't really the goal.

Building Details
This is a large build (80x92x138). It has 23 floors (plus roof), with over 240 apartments. Being a luxury apartment building, it also has all the amenities. This includes a two-level lobby, a mail-room (with package storage), a gym, management office, a laundry room, an employee lounge and locker room, various utility rooms (for the pumps, boilers, HVAC, transformers, etc), five retail/office areas, a trash chute on each floor, four elevator shafts - two for floors 1-12, two for floors 14-21), four stairwells, an apartment for the superintendent, and excellent signage to keep you from getting lost.

Each floor has 12 apartments, with three different layouts (six if you include mirror-images): one with 2 bedrooms, and the other two layouts with a single-bedroom each. The top floor is dedicated to six penthouses (four penthouses with four bedrooms each, two penthouses with three bedrooms each). All apartments and penthouses have bathrooms, kitchens, and ample closet space. The apartments are all empty except for the kitchens and baths, which have basic furnishings. All apartments are lit with ceiling fixtures. Each apartment and penthouse has access to their own private balcony. I have color-coded the rooms using carpeting; blue carpet indicates a shared area (living rooms, dining rooms, hallways), green carpet is used in bedrooms and other private areas, grey carpet for closets, and white for bathrooms. The kitchens have a "tiled" carpet.

Notes
While this build is complete, I intend to use the structure in a larger project that includes a nearby parking garage, swimming pool, tennis court, park and other outside features. This includes a bridge on the second floor leading to the aforementioned garage; right now the doors on the second floor open to nothing, so watch your step. In the meantime, I figure some of you might find a stand-alone version of just the building useful.

The schematic is available for download and can be imported into your own world with MCEdit. You can also preview the build - albeit in low-detail - using PlanetMinecraft's WorldViewer. You are welcome to use this design in any non-commercial mod or design of your own. All I ask is that you give me proper attribution and, if you make your work available to the public, I ask that you send me a link.

You can also view this build as a 3D model on Sketchfab!

I use the John Smith Legacy 1.11.2 v3 resource pack.If you use other texture/resource packs, things might look weird.

If you like this design, please check out some of my other projects, such as the Walled Medieval Town, the Island Castle, my Motte & Bailey Castle, the Hillside Home, the Hill Manor or any of my other dozen-plus designs and shared assets.

Feedback is always welcome and if you like what you see, hit that diamond. Thanks!
