Back in July I built a city block of mostly "historic-style" buildings to go
on the Vancouver Lego Club's train show layout. I just last night managed to
clear enough space here to set the whole thing up and take pictures of it.
They are at:

The overview of the whole block is at

There are also lots of close-ups.

I must apologise for the picture quality, a combination of scans of a
point-and-shoot film camera and a little webcam... imagine me turning the
entire table around so I could reach each part for closeups with the little
short USB cable which comes with the webcam  :-)

LMKWYT!

(...) Kevin, That's a great diorama, a real inspiration for those of who love cities. Off the top of your head, do you know about how many blocks it too? I think I only hace enough blocks to make a small village. George (23 years ago, 5-Oct-01, to lugnet.town, lugnet.build.arch)
