Community Spots

Twinbrook has many community lots that allow Sims to pursue to new activities or activities that require equipment too expensive to have at home at first, such as exercise machines at the gym or a computer at the library.

Another benefit to visiting these community spots is meeting Sims. These locations can get pretty busy, giving you ample opportunities to socialize and meet your neighbors. If your Sim thirsts for socialization, be sure to hit up these spots.

Cleanesque Laundromat

Do Laundry

Dry Clothing

In the New Venues and Real Estate chapter, we described the general use of the new laundromat location. In Twinbrook, the laundromat is an excellent place socialize as well as do laundry.

The Cleanesque Laundromat has a few rows of washers and dryers, so you can always do your laundry without waiting. The facility also has a bathroom and a common area for visiting and enjoying music.

After dropping clothes in the machine, why not chat up that fellow around the corner?

Curios Memorial Museum

Main Interactions

The Curios Memorial Museum is a good spot for art-loving Sims to admire works from great talents. The museum charges no admission fee, so Sims can view art and enjoy the mood benefits without dropping a single Simoleon.

There may not be a lot to do here outside of viewing art or coming back during specific opportunities, but art-loving Sims will find others with similar interests here.

Who knows, your Sim may lock eyes with the love of her life when looking up from a fascinating sculpture.

Ivy Hill Graveyard

Tour Mausoleum

Explore Catacombs

Mourn

Sims who have gone before are buried at the graveyard. The chief purpose of this community spot is to mourn the dead, but there are plenty of other interactions available among the tombstones and grave markers.

There are statues to admire and plenty of trees, so a Loves the Outdoors Sim will get great pleasure from being here.

The central feature is the mausoleum. This imposing structure houses more of the dead. Touring the mausoleum can be educational for some Sims.

The option to explore the catacombs below the graveyard is a source of excitement for Brave Sims.

Sims without the Brave trait risk getting the Horrified moodlet, which is devastating to their overall mood for several hours.

Juan's Pick 'n Pull & Bayless Memorial Junkyard

Main Interactions

Collect Scrap

There are two junkyards in Twinbrook: Juan's Pick 'n Pull and the Bayless Memorial Junkyard. Bayless is the larger of the two, so it has more junkyard spawners and scrap piles to rummage through.

Be sure to investigate the New Venues and Real Estate chapter for more information on the junkyards, including tables that reveal which objects you have a chance of finding at each location.

Visit junkyards often. You never know what you might find, like a big-screen TV to either repair or detonate for scrap.

Use Computer

The Lakeside Community Library is open to all and free of charge. The library is stacked with hundreds of books, so your Sim is bound to find something of interest here to flip through and just relax.

The library is also a social hot spot, especially for Sims with the Bookworm trait. It is common to bump into another Sim with similar interests at the library.

The library also has computers for Sims who don't have one at home (for space or money reasons), and any computer activity you could do from home—like chat, play games, and check real estate—can be done from a library computer.

The Red Rendezvous

Main Interactions

Prepare Beverage

The Red Rendezvous is the social epicenter of Twinbrook. At this club, Sims can come to enjoy music, socialize, have a beverage, and just unwind.

There are plenty of places to sit and just listen to music from the stereo or a Sim with a talent for the guitar. (Sims with the Guitar skill should definitely play the Red Rendezvous for tips.)

If your Sim's Social need is in the red, a trip to the Red Rendezvous is a sure remedy.

Twinbrook Community Gardens

Main Interactions

Plant Seed

Water Harvestable

Harvest

Not every Sim has space to start a garden, so the community gardens are perfect for working out the ol' green thumb. Sims who want to develop the Gardening skill are welcome to dig around in the dirt, plant seeds, and raise harvestables to full size.

The garden is not stocked with any rare or exotic plants such as Flame Fruit or Money Trees at first. You must cultivate those on your own.

The community garden is also a good place to socialize. Chances are good that Sims at the garden Love the Outdoors or are growing harvestables, giving you something to talk about right away.

The community garden has just basic harvestables like tomatoes and lettuce... at first.

Twinbrook Community Swim Center

Main Interactions

Swim

Sims absolutely love to swim, unless they are Hydrophobic, of course. If you don't have a pool on your own lot, use the Twinbrook Community Swim Center to take a refreshing dip. Swimming is good exercise and a major stress-reducer.

The Twinbrook Community Swim Center can get busy, but that's a bonus. Chat up the locals at poolside and make a new friend, or eight!

Swimming provides stress relief and exercise—two birds with one stone.

Twinbrook Lakefront Wellness Center

Use Exercise Machine

Use Treadmill

Shower

All Sims should exercise, not just those developing the Athletic skill or pursuing a career in Professional Sports.

The good people of Twinbrook have built this facility for all to enjoy without dropping a single Simoleon, making it a great place to get in shape without having to buy an expensive exercise machine.

Because the gym is often busy, it also doubles as a socialization spot where like-minded Sims can mingle and talk about the latest exercise trends.
