I am proud to announce the official release of the Classic Castle City Standard
developed at Brickfest 2003.
Feel free to give any comments, thoughts, or ideas.
The idea is that this will be a motivating point, around which castle-heads can
work together to make really awesome, really large displays. Showing off your
creations really works well when people work together (or if you are Jim and
Maelee Foulds).
Everything else I have to say is in the write up (click on the nifty Logo I
made).

| (...) I'm impressed. And also a bit proud that an idea I suggested to Anthony Sava to improve his original Village of Dahyart, evolved into an important part of the village standard (although I'm convinced you would have come up with the same idea (...)

| Hi Lenny, I like several things about this standard. The walls are simple and yet conform to earlier LEGO sets. Small scale buildings will fit in the city quite well. I guess we could start creating buildings with angled walls to eliminate gaps (...) (21 years ago, 23-Aug-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

| (...) Hey Lenny, I'm guessing there will be instructions for these? somewhere? I love 'em, and can't wait to start building lots of 'em too. On a side note - Are there any plans for a standard "standard", for the King and his troops? I'd be (...) (21 years ago, 23-Aug-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

| (...) Lenny, First, thanks very much for taking this on and seeing it to conclusion. As one who was part of the roundtable discussion, I am very impressed with what you have ended up with. As we all stated, the standard had to be open enough to (...) (21 years ago, 24-Aug-03, to lugnet.castle)

| (...) I notice you didn't include a 45 degree wall section. I haven't built Castle in over a decade, and I don't have the right pieces handy, but here's a floorplan for a possible 45-ish design (it actually curves a bit towards the center of the (...) (21 years ago, 24-Aug-03, to lugnet.castle)

| (...) Lenny, it was great meeting all of you guys at my 1st Brickfest. I think this whole idea needed to be done and I have built one walled segment. I am going to modify my remaining walled segments (from 4 Battering Ram sets) to this standard. I (...) (21 years ago, 24-Aug-03, to lugnet.castle)

| (...) The subject of standards and projects usually causes me annoyance: I tend to think that standards can be too restrictive, and often end up being exclusive rather than inclusive. There are, of course exceptions, and this certainly seems to be (...) (21 years ago, 25-Aug-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

| Hi, very great work building this standard ! I like the easy and realistic design of the walls. And this is the best time to make such a standard, 'cause right now I'm building the walls to my "white lion keep". :) Only few suggestions: - please (...) (21 years ago, 25-Aug-03, to lugnet.castle)

| (...) Just a quick response. I've been catching some rather interesting headlines in .castle lately that I just haven't had time to read through lately. A few things I am thinking: 1. Lenny, the website is smooth, easy to read, and really gets the (...) (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
