Marina Office

Every seashore area with boats and ferries and whatnot need an office to oversee marina operations.  I got one for my Lego city.

The Marina Office

At first, it was going to handle all watercraft business operations.  Both boat and equipment rentals.  Then I found 4644 Marina at a Toys'R'Us, which had a store for equipment rental (SCUBA tanks, flippers, surfboards, fishing rods, life jackets).  My original design of the Marina Office has a service window and a cash register.  I didn't want to change it, since the office would still handle boat rentals, so I kept them.

The office is elevated over the water.  I got a number of supports coming up, on which the floor is placed upon.  I felt it was a good idea to have the office propped up so the people running it could oversee boat operation a bit better than just sitting at "ground" level.  It also matched up with the elevation of the surrounding structures.
