Royal Arcade

Royal Arcade built c. 1869 is Melbourne, Australias oldest living arcade, with annexes built c. 1904, it's still home to specialty shops including Spellbox, Babushkas and various jewellers, tailors and gift stores.

Royal Arcade comes in two buildings, the main arcade 2x8 tiles , and side annex 1x5 tiles. The ideal placement of the two is shown in screenshots here, but you can use them however you like seperatly or together.

Being an arcade, the two are also pedestrian paths between streets of your city that your cims will use!

this is the first of a number of arcade and laneway assets I will make that give you more options for getting pedestrians between city blocks.

"The Royal Arcade was proudly the first arcade in Melbourne and is the longest-standing arcade in Australia. Its historical significance is profound and underpinned by the fact that, as a significant Victorian era building, it is part of the Victorian Heritage Register.

In 1868, a major competition was held for the design of the Royal Arcade. The winning entry was by Mr Charles Webb, a 19th Century architect from Suffolk, England. His successful design was in the Italianate style, drawing on influential French and English models demonstrating essential qualities of those traditional styles.
Melbourne is of course blessed with several of Charles Webb’s buildings including Melbourne Grammar School, Tasma Terrace, South Melbourne Town Hall, The Church of Christ, Banks and Co. Warehouse, and the renowned Windsor Hotel.
recently, the ageing Royal Arcade was refurbished and restored to its former glory during 2002 – 2004, with extensive work on skylights and storefronts.

The beauty of the Royal Arcade is it remains largely unchanged today, yet its Renaissance Revival style is in pristine condition."
