Ever since I stepped my in-game foot in Goodneighbor for the first time, I knew I wanted to have a player home there. And not just a separate interior cell that would completely cut me off from the atmosphere of the place, no. I wanted a home where I could look out the windows and see the stringed lights and cables swaying on the wind, watch guards patrol the street and hear people talking, peek at the Mayor himself standing on his balcony... This mod aims to offer exactly that, but in order to be able to achieve this goal, it needs to come with some small quirks. Two, to be specific. They aren't any major or game breaking issues, and I will do my best to explain what they are. It will be up to you to decide whether they are a deal breaker for you or not.

Please, make sure to also read the sticky post in the comments section!

EXPLANATION

The entire apartment is built into Memory Den building's external shell. Such building shells are only textured and visible from the outside - if you turn off clipping and go inside, they will still have collision but they will appear invisible. That's how I could build my apartment high above the entrance to the Den:

Such placement allowed me to have an externally located room that is not only unaffected by rain, but also offers gorgeous views of the changing lighting outside:

The are two downsides of doing it that way, unfortunately. One problem is that the outside view does not match the inside, that is: you can't really see any part of the apartment from the street level. Some may call this an issue... me, I call it a bonus - I could go really wild with the window sizes there. I'll write about the second problem a bit further
