  Re: Model of Colonial Williamsburg's Powder Magazine
 
Hey Greg- Sweet looking stuff, I live about 30 minutes east of Williamsburg and have been by the Powderhouse many times. It is cool to see some local stuff (other than my LEGO City) made out of LEGO! ~Chris Fortier www.chrisfortier.com (...) (23 years ago, 22-Apr-01, to lugnet.build.arch)

I have built a LEGO version of the historic building Colonial Williamsburg’s Powder (...)

(...) I'm sorry to butt in on this thread, but a person can have a solid building and still have it nicely detailed on the inside.

Many lobbies of tall buildings are the equivalent of three or four stories high. -JDF (23 years ago, 13-Apr-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.build.arch)

I'm still trying to figure out where I got this. My part isn't yellowed and looks brand new.
