If you want to create your own custom building, then prepare yourself for quite a learning process... :)

1. Download B.A.T (and gmax from Turbosquid) and Maxis' Plugin Manager here (http://www.sc4devotion.com/SC4D_Maxis_files_EULA.html).
(accept the terms and navigate to Building Architect Tool (BAT).
Later you will also need the Lot Editor, in order to place your building on a lot...

2. Read and work yourself through Philippbo's BAT Essentials (http://www.simtropolis.com/omnibus/index.cfm/Main.SimCity_4.Custom_Content.BAT_Essentials_Page_One).

3. Find additional BAT tutorials under B.A.T. Tutorials (http://sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?board=39.0).
