dm_richs_apt was the first hl2dm map I ever made. According to Wayback, it was up as early as Jan 2005.

HL2DM Rich's Apartment
Best suited for 6-16 players.
Filename: dm_richs_apt.bsp
MODE D'EMPLOI: Unzip the file "dm_richs_apt.bsp" to your
"half-life 2 deathmatch\hl2mp\maps" directory.
FEATURES:
- A 4 unit apartment building for great close-quarters combat.
- A laundry building and an open street area for when you need to get some air.
- Secret passages between all four apartments! Hidden murder holes!
- Hidden locations that arent hard to find, but may give you an edge if you
bother to use them.
KNOWN ISSUES:
- A few crashes, especially when reloading the map. This could just be a
problem with me only running one map, but who knows. Your mileage may vary.
- It doesn't seem to work on a pure Linux Dedicated Server :-(
Let me know if you have a different experience - i had to use the Windows DS.
- The buggy will not appear on dedicated servers without installing a
vehicle patch, but this is not a problem with my map in particular.
Is this really your apartment?
Yeah, kinda. I haven't made a map since Doom 2, so when I felt inspired to
learn 3d mapping, I decided to start by creating the inside of my apartment.
When I made the map bigger, I recreated the design of my neighboring apts,
and created an exterior. After playtesting this on my server for a while, I
made a few adjustments, cleaned it up, and a few versions later I have a
working deathmatch level thats lots of fun to play, and happens to bear a
striking resemblance to a low-rent apartment complex in Iowa City, IA.
I'd like to thank you for downloading my map - I hope you enjoy it just as
much as I enjoyed making it. This is a fun map to explore, and a great
deathmatch level. There's something here for everybody, you just have to
search it out.
