| | | Hi, everybody! I'd like to announce my latest addition to my LEGO Manhattan... I've built a whole new city modeled after Greenwich Village.

| | | | | (...) <snip> Someone clued me in to this (the gallery on BS) before your announcment and I've been spending a good part of the afternoon drooling. Wow. There are just so many nifty details, I am hard pressed to pick a fave, but i am very partial to (...) (22 years ago, 18-Mar-03, to lugnet.town)

| | | | | | (...) LOL :) Drooling? Well, I'm glad you like them. It's certainly a vast departure from my "big, plain, chunky buildings" of the past. (Quoting my teenage sister when she first saw my 5-foot Empire State Building in 1999.) That one statement of (...) (22 years ago, 19-Mar-03, to lugnet.town)

| | | | | | Just to follow myself up, I've finally gotten the time to look through everything and I'm even more impressed. Some things that jumped out at me include these pictures: (URL) just really like fig's-eye-view pictures. The busy-ness of these pictures (...) (22 years ago, 20-Mar-03, to lugnet.town)

Now if Lego would only release some plate packs in those colors. Joined Buildings - Nice history/story for (...) (22 years ago, 18-Mar-03, to lugnet.town)

| | | | | | (...) Thanks! A lot of the buildings I built for this city have little "histories", because all real-life buildings do too. Old buildings that have been around longer than any man or woman alive go through changes; they are affected by differnent (...) (22 years ago, 19-Mar-03, to lugnet.town)

| | | | | (...) Hi Sean, I was looking at these durning lunch. Very nice. You've captured the 'feel' quite nicely....I will be walking out into that 'feel' in a few moments. I really liked the cornices and all the signage as well. You've gotten a lot of (...) (22 years ago, 18-Mar-03, to lugnet.town)

| | | | | (...) VERY nice! Makes me want to build a part of my town once again, alas I still lack the parts, money and time. Two things that can make the experience in visiting your Village better is; 1) As you yourself pointed out, better photos. More light (...) (22 years ago, 19-Mar-03, to lugnet.town)

| | | | | | (...) Yes... Most of the photos were taken in December, and I don't get a lot of light in my apartment during the winter. :( I even have a halogen mounted over the city and carried some bulb lights up to the side of the city for the pictures, but it (...)

| | | | | (...) Time *was* passing! :) Chalk it up to "happy accident"... those pictures were taken across 6 months, from July to December 2002. I'd planned ahead, knowing that I wanted to make this time-lapse animation from the very beginning. I took a (...) (22 years ago, 19-Mar-03, to lugnet.town)
