His fire escapes are great, and I've included them with three of my apartment house uploads.
The patio set, otoh, I don't like too much. The individual items are nice, but those beams/rafters obstruct game play. They make it very hard to click on and manipulate things beneath them.
If a person wanted to use the Maxis equivalent, say the railroad ties, they would not look as good but would work much better because they are on the level above, and thus would disappear when playing the level of the patio. I wish creators would think about these things a little more.
I've run into a considerable number of items like this over the years that look good on the surface but are a pita to actually play. It's one of the reasons I don't add this kind of stuff to my Lot uploads. If a person wants it, they can add it themselves.
Just my two cents.
