Town in a basement

Has anyone seen a basement that looks like an old town city street? I recently saw a house for sale that has its own little town downstairs and I can't get it out of my mind. That would be so cool to hang out in.

    A little larger than the normal basement, but The House on the Rock in WI has an old west style city street in one of the rooms/areas. It is pretty neat.

    I just wish we had basements.
    Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

    try some train hobbyist websites..those folks are as nuts about trains as we are about audio stuff. they have some elaborate villages built around their homes.

    I know the one you are talking about but I can't seem to find it right now.

    Bummer, best area in a house! They are great for drinkin' in, listenin' in, sleepin' in and general playin' in!

    I would have enough room for a small theater, a country store (really a pantry inside), a little lounging area, maybe a little club with a stage. Mostly it would be walls with an alley and sidewalk in between (which would be the main area for listening). I imagine a few lights over the entrances and maybe a tree or two coming out of the sidewalk. The theater entrance would actually go into the theater area and the back walk out would go to the "park".
