I have a very similar building. It also came from a cheap fire playset.  A bit different but with the same doors. I painted the doors bronze and the building grey and used it for a generic urban building.

Not that inspiring and I never took proper pics, but you can see  it in the side of this pic.


and the upper right side of this pic.

Blimey. Must have been made in the same Chinese factory.

Thanks for all the ideas. I'm leaning toward cafe or 'bus' stop.

I'm with The_Beast here. If there's one sort of cafe that's going to make it into space we humanity colonises the galaxy it's going to be 'Star'Bucks.

It's like when Europeans took measles to the Eskimos and rats to Mauritius.

I wasn't complaining, really. Just saying, they replicate like a kind of virus.

Thanks for the suggestions above, I have another building that needs some work. I managed to procure one of the buildings in my blog post here: http://crapidfire.blogspot.co.uk/2014/09/things-i-want-to-steal-from-my-4-year.html?m=1

My son sold it to me for a tenner.

The building is shown below and the second image shows another way it can be configured (probably more useful for wargaming). So, with the same fringe/backwater world setting in mind, what is this new building?

I'll be curious to see what you make of that. I've got the same building waiting for conversion but it's missing the front white wall piece.  It does at least have the roof though.
