I hope this goes through. I'm new at Lugnet so stay with me.  I posted this
once and was told I should post it in other areas.  So that's what I'm
doing.  Enjoy.

Well here is 1 of 3 San Francisco landmarks I've done. The TransAmerica
Building in San Francisco.  Took me only about 5 months to finish.  I'm not
sure how many bricks but I went through alot.  In some of the pictures you
can see the Golden Gate bridge being built also.  Two large projects at one
time was a headache.  The Golden Gate was suspended until I finished Trans.
My building stands six feet tall.  I hope you enjoy.

NOTE: If you look close in picture DSC00029 you can see a mini-fig standing
at the corner.  This gives an idea of the real size.

Keep an eye out for the other two San Fran pieces.

It's been sooooo long since I have seen that building in person. Seeing your work makes me want to go and see it again. Catch some dinner at the Canton House. Then go over to Alta plaza park and digest. Great work. That thing must be heavy huh?! I (...) (22 years ago, 18-Nov-02, to lugnet.build)

Wow! Pretty amazing entry as a first step into posting here. You know that your next announcement has to be even bigger, right? :) Just kidding. The building is really nice. Things at that scale are always awe-inspiring. I like the little flag on (...) (22 years ago, 20-Nov-02, to lugnet.build)
