Greetings everybody!  I know it's been a while, so for those that don't
remember me, I am building a town inspired by New York City that I call "The
Brick Apple"  (Get it?  "The Big Apple").    Well, Manhattan, specifically.

I have recently been working on rebuilding my model of The Empire State
Building.  The existing one is 6 feet tall and having trouble supporting all
its weight.  It doesnt really look as accurate as I had wanted it to either.
I have posted a page that will chronicle my rebuilding efforts:

http://www.brickapple.com/page.php?page=dusa/reconstruction&w=dusa

So far, I have rebuilt the base of the building, and there should be more
coming soon. :)  There are about 6 pictures right now, and a bunch of text
about my planning and stuff.

I also added some fun stuff: you can vote on my buildings and write reviews
and comments online. Try it out!  I'd love to see what you all have to say. :)

I also have a new domain name (brickapple.com) and spent the last month or
so getting the interactive stuff up there.  The site used to be very heavy
in Javascript and some people complained, so I got rid of all that too.
