Description
The Albert Park Coffee Palace is a landmark in the inner Melbourne, Australia suburb, and has no been brought to your city for all your cims caffeine needs. a place for teetotallers, artists and radicals to socialise with a warm cup of joe.

"Built as the Albert Park Coffee Palace, Biltmore was begun in 1887 to designs by architect Walter Scott Law, and was completed in 1889 by architects Frederick de Garis and Son. This 40-room stuccoed brick building was constructed for the Coffee Palace Company. It was one of a number of coffee houses constructed in Melbourne and suburbs in the 1880s as part of the temperance movement, to provide an alcohol-free alternative to the pub. Sixty-nine Coffee Palaces, Coffee Taverns and Temperance Hotels were listed in the Melbourne Directory of 1890.

Designed in the free classical style of the later boom years in Melbourne, Biltmore is an imposing four storey facade of arcaded loggias. These loggias are divided into three bays with the central bay of one arch and the side bays of two arches. Pairs of engaged columns define these bays and employ different orders at each level from Tuscan, to Roman Doric and variations of the Corinthian above. The composition is surmounted by a balustrade and large central pediment with windows. Internally the ground floor contains a large dining room, ancillary service rooms and reception rooms."

Find it in the RICO leisure section or otherwise as a landmark

Disclaimer :
I Made this asset before learning more about tri counts and how to reduce them etc.. so it's quite large at 11,530 Tris.
This should be fine as long as you only place it once or twice, I haven't noticed it effecting gameplay speed on my fairly average laptop so you should be fine.

Feel no obligation, but If you like these buildings and would like to support their creation with any amount at all, donations would be much appreciated

Idk if it works fine in RICO or not (I just plop it anyway :p) but your RICO file is called "PloppableRICODefinition.xml.xml" ... should probably remove that extra xml in there :)

Another great little building- a nice foil to all the gleaming towering skyscrapers!
