I have completed another building to include in the MichLTC portion of the ILTCO
layout planned for the NMRA 2007 National Train Show to be held in Detroit on
July 28 - 30th.
This MOC is a model of the Griswold Building, a midrise structure designed by
architect Albert Kahn in 1929. It primarily uses old brown and old light gray
for the facade.

For those of you who are planning on participating or showing up for the NMRA
NTS, I look forward to seeing you there.

| (...) Just stunning. Great details and excellent use of colors, both old and new. Another thing I really like about this is that it is not a huge skyscraper. It is the type of building, in my view, that will be on a layout but not necessarily be the (...) (17 years ago, 11-Jun-07, to lugnet.town, FTX)
