David, I am working on a city se. I have been using S scale kits for the  
foreground and HO for the mid and background. You can also use HO scale for the 
 
foreground provided that you insert S scale doors and avoid any jarring  
contrasts when placing the modified HO near the true S.  There are a lot of  
candidates out there.  The Scenery Unlimited catalogue suggests a few and  the 
Walthers catalogue will give you some good ideas.  Most  of the Walthers 
background/flat structures are good candidates. Look for  the ones which are 
easy to 
cut.  
    In a recent Classic Trains magazine, the  author discussed using HO 
models as backdrop for a O scale layout and suggested  a few rules to follow.  
You 
can achieve similar results for your S  scale layout by following his rules.
    Regards.
    Paul S.
