2021 UPDATE: now with a LOT less CC! . Please scroll to the end of the pictures to see the new version...
I don't know why the new 'Hood info/screenshot shows only 7 apartments? I have verified with my testSim that all 8 apartments are rent-able. The top floor left apartment was tricky to get my sim to rent (there is some kind of routing issue there - I recommend using one of the other 7 apartments for your playable sim); but, my testSim was able to eventually rent the apartment.
--- You will need to have[/i] Numenor's Unlevel Wall - #90 - I use this wall all the time as it is such a forgiving wall to build with Click the info button below to see how I suggest installing this wall NOTE: If you decide NOT to use Numenor's Wall #90, there may be missing wall foundation sections (or pieces of the WroughtIron fence in strange places.)
If you don't already have it, go get and install the Scriptorium by Numenor - it makes it super easy to install Modular Stairs, Fireplaces, Custom Walls, Lights/lamp mods (You can read about the what/why/how of it on his post) To sum up - all these items use scripts to work properly in the game - and that means they have an extra .txt file along with the regular .package file. And, you don't just dump it all into your Downloads folder. Once you install the Scriptorium, it will install all the other stuff for you.
Then - go get 90_UnleveledWall also by Numenor. (This wall is amazing!) Numenor cautions on his post that some people have experienced problems with this wall; but, I've used it since he first released it in 2006, and I have NEVER had a problem with it - I've used it through various EP/SP disc installs on XP, Vista, 7, 8, and now on Windows 10 with UC.
Unpack the zip file and find two items:
90_UnleveledWall.txt
90_UnleveledWall.package
In your DL folder, find the Scriptorium shortcut labeled "Scriptorium_Walls-Fences-Arches" and drop the .txt file into it.
(If you open the shortcut, you'll see it's path goes to: C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection\Double Deluxe\Base\TSData\Res\Catalog\Scripts\Scriptorium_Walls-Fences-Arches - if you have the UC)
Numenor advises that you put BOTH the .txt and the .package in the shortcut folder. However, my 90_UnleveledWall.package file is in my documents/Downloads/zHacks folder - always has been, and, like I said, I've never had a problem with it.
Lot Size: 20X20 Lot Price: $343,094 Rent: 4 Left Units = $1,555; 4 Right Units = $1,585
I am leaving the older files up on MTS - in case you really want that old CC - but, WARNING - I doubt the old version will play correctly because of the split landing stairs. *sigh*
...and the original upload description follows:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is a part of my EPSCOT hood I've been working on off-and-on for a while now. EPSCOT, the Experimental Prototype Sims Community of Tomorrow, is a study on cultural blending - much like Uncle Walt's [Disney] EPCOT is today.
Horizons East is the newest building in the area. It provides apartments for 8 of my smaller, International Sim-families. This upload includes 8 fully furnished apartments - with room for 2 Sims to live quite comfortably in each. All the apartments have the same floor plan with the same basic furnishings: appliances, plumbing, lights, phone, alarms, beds, tables, chairs, TV, bookshelves, stereo, and computers. You will want to add decorative items and skill objects, etc... The layout is very playable for 2 sims; they can even comfortably entertain 2 other sims.
The entry-level floor houses most all the buildings amenities. There is a conference room, an exercise room, game room with cards, darts, pool, and pinball, and a staffed bar. You will also find a large swimming pool in the basement, and an extraordinary light-filled community garden on the rooftop.
The building is handicap accessible too. There are ramps up the front steps and elevators that will take you to the other levels (except for the pool - which is a shame. Maybe you could remedy that when the need arises?) The "Red" level left-side apartment also has a wheelchair accessible shower stall. The overall design of the building is Modern-Neutral, so it really should appeal to a wide range of Sims. Enjoy! And, "Welcome Home!"

Install Instructions
Basic Download and Install Instructions:
1. Download: Click the download link to save the .rar or .zip file(s) to your computer.
2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file.
3. Install: Double-click on the .sims2pack file to install its contents to your game. The files will automatically be installed to the proper location(s).
You may want to use the Sims2Pack Clean Installer instead of the game's installer, which will let you install sims and pets which may otherwise give errors about needing expansion packs. It also lets you choose what included content to install. Do NOT use Clean Installer to get around this error with lots and houses as that can cause your game to crash when attempting to use that lot. Get S2PCI here: Clean Installer Official Site.
I mostly "build" - houses, apartments, recreational, and community lots - but, I also create walls (and murals), floors, terrain paint, and various other recolors. And I've written a few tutorials too. :luff:
