What essential buildings should a spaceport have?

[vodkafan]

Thanks for all the ideas guys! My ideas have crystallized a bit. The hotel and the low-life's residence I have decided should be more properly outside the spaceport perimeter. I have also combined the main spaceport building, and the control tower into one entity.  I am looking at the moment at an octagonal piece by Sarrissa, (with  2 extra floors and adaptions)

The ground floor of this is open, so will have lots of space for vendors and other amusements that some of you have mentioned.

 This will have landing pads (for the smaller space ships) attached on the outside, at different levels and connected by ramps and moving walkways into the building, which will be adapted from 10mm scale roads and flyovers by Blotz .

The whole thing with the landing pads will be about 2.5 feet across, which will be a compromise between features I want to include and keeping it small as possible but the central building has a footprint only half that.

Did you order that all the way from Australia or is there an EU store? 

[huesped]

nope, sadly from australia. i haven't found any EU distributor yet. keep in mind some extra tax fee. In any case the buildings worths it. and the tower is huge!!

I like the Knights of Dice stuff but they didn't have the established, settled look that I wanted. They look more like a colony in the early stages of being set up. It's a great range though.

A Coms Center probably attached to the air traffic tower somehow.

A repair/parts place/junkyard

I  have feasted my eyes a few times on your galleries, Richard! I started collecting my spaceships and thinking about this project as a result of your WIP thread. Although my planetary spaceport will of necessity have to be more compact and subordinate to the needs of gaming.
