Yes, actually the buildings were all almost completely hollow. They were
obviously strong enough to support themselves, but I had to be careful
as they got taller. The red building's roof is set upon a few
cross-struts that were 7 rows of 2x6 bricks (they are visible in the
first picture on the list.

The hollowbuildings made deconstruction easier as well simply knocked
all of the pices inward and then scooped them up.

the walls bow in or out?

I like Henry's white temple building quite a bit. The whole thing is
inspiring.
