I think part of the story-height equation depends on the type of building you're working on. AFAIK a six-brick height is pretty standard for most official models, which tend to be utilitarian in nature (gas stations, police stations, etc). Something (...) (24 years ago, 18-Jun-00, to lugnet.build)

I've been wondering: what is a good story height for multi-story buildings? I just bought two two-story sets - Fort Legoredo (6769) and a Train Station (4556), and interestingly enough, have differing story heights. Fort Legoredo's is 6 1/3 - log (...) (24 years ago, 18-Jun-00, to lugnet.build)
