It would be fun to do the cobblestone streets again. Perhaps we could
each make some street sections. In the next week or so, I'm going to
have to decide how to spend my time constructing. Right now, I plan on
bringing my wharf section, but I'd love to expand it, or do some other
town sections. One thing is that I now can choose between the streets
behind the wharf being at baseplate + 1 brick, or at base plate + 6
bricks (um I think it's 6, whatever the height of the log wall pieces
is) + 2 plates (I made this modification so that I could interface the
wharf to my train layout).
One project I would like to finish is a 4 baseplate castle that sits on
a small rocky island. I started this about two years ago, but got caught
up in work. I do have some re-work of the base to do now that I'm
convinced that each floor should sit on tiles, and then I need to start
serious construction. I'm thinking of making it's gatehouse connect to
the wharf section.
