Penthouse

Penthouses are new additions in The Sims 3: Late Night. They are fixed-size lots on top of Skyscrapers. They can be residential- as well as community lots. People can be seen moving in and out, but your sims are virtually the only ones living in the building.

Penthouses are similar to apartments in The Sims 2: Apartment Life, but do not feature the whole social experience of living in a community, your active Sim is the only one playable sim living in the building where your penthouse is, however NPCs will often live there too and we can see them sometimes walking to the elevator and locking doors, you can actually talk to them and you can ring their bell to get them out of their rooms and then you can socialise with them. They have been compared to the "Shell" buildings in World Adventures such as the pyramids. Apart from your residential space, there is a lobby with an intercom (to allow visitors to talk to you on the top floor) and an Elevator.

Penthouses are moderately-priced to very expensive and come in either one or two stories, depending on the price. Editing the walls and adding extra room to a penthouse can not be done in a natural way, though it is possible with the use of cheats
