If you haven’t built town MOCs before but want to give this one a try – this is the perfect opportunity as the investment in pieces isn’t too huge and you get a chance to really add to what is shaping up to be a really fantastic layout.

To make things easier – there are two suburban house standards by which everyone should build to. All you have to do is drop off your MOC and it will fit perfectly into a network of streets already laid out. Everyone will get a plot of “land” and a place to call your very own.

So what do you need to build?

...
   Option #2 32x48 stud area on green baseplates. 4 stud wide half alley in the back. Your property will back up to another house and complete an 8 stud wide alley. The alley should be 2x2 black tile (and if you don’t have enough, let me know and I’ll bring some extra – thank you PAB wall). All garages or parking in Option #2 should be off the alley. The attached image shows an ideal maximum footprint (including porches – and the house can be smaller, of course) for the house in yellow and the alley in black tile.



Some examples I made of a house on the 32x48 footprint :
