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.

Thanks George!

All I can say is, thousands :-). It took every white 1x2x2 window, tan brick
and plate I own, even after raiding my "to sell" piles. As a very (very!)
rough estimate, probably around 6000 pieces for the actual buildings in the
single city block itself (not including the high-rise, school, Victorian
house, factory and corner store which appear across the street in some
photos, those together add up to about 7000), plus all the details, people
and vehicles.
