Hello @crushnik ,
I case you are familiar with Blender, there is an addon called "BlenderOSM" which downloads OpenStreetMap data and generates buildings out of the blueprints right away:
Feel free to inquire further if you would like to explore this option.

Hi Chris:
Sketchup can import a *.SHP file via a plugin Ruby script that can also semi-automatically extrude a 3D model ...to be textured, and exported as a Google Earth *.KMZ file.
The 3D model can be exported from Sketchup as a Geo-located Google Earth *.KMZ file.
The Google Earth *.KMZ file can be imported by Arno's MCX, converted to a Geo-located *.MDL, then exported as a textured, precisely placed, FSX / P3D Scenery object BGL.
Feel free to inquire further if you would like to explore this option.
