Since the thin walls fro LEGO Direct are clear instead of tinted, they aren't ideal for office windows. They are however very useful for ground floor windows. The first thing that came to my mind after unpacking them was this: (URL) can't imagine (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.arch)

How much are you willing to 'come down' on that RV in the showroom? ;-) - Greg (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.arch)

(...) I believe the red building in 6390 Main Street housed a driving school, not a car dealership. (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.arch)

(...) Are the clear windows really that bad for use in office windows? (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.arch)

(...) Nope, I'm pretty sure it is a car dealership. The minifig fits the stereotype perfectly, and why would a driving school have a huge showroom window? The second floor office has the feel of a car dealership as well, at least to me. Jeff (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.arch)

(...) I always assumed it was an auto repair shop. Jeff may have a point, considering what's inside. Maybe the person that designed it could tell us? KL (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.arch)

(...) They wouldn't be bad, just not ideal. Most office windows I've seen are tinted. There are some that are clear, and it probably wouldn't look bad. It also depends on the color scheme of the building. Trans-lt-blue probably wouldn't go with red (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.arch)
