Real Estate DLC: New attributes for apartments

[David]

Having seen the hotel concept at http://www.capitalism2.com/forum/viewto ... =49&t=7100, I was wondering if you guys have any suggestions for adding new attributes to apartments and commercial buildings?

For instance, potential new attributes for apartments could be:
-Luxury level
-Club facilities

Additional data to show:
-Building cost per apartment unit. A higher building cost means a higher luxury level for the building.

They could be implemented in a way similar to the Hotel concept.
