That was my guess too. If it were Lego doing the organizing, they’d probably aim
for a larger “vacation area” spot (balanced with cheap real estate of course),
but considering how this looks more privately run, it’s probably what they could
find for cheap in a reasonable distance.

I would imagine there’s a slightly smaller following for Lego than there is
for football, baseball, or basketball (HoF in Springfield, MA, where hoops
was invented, incidentally) - so those rules don’t apply.

I have to admit I’m curious as to what crowd they hope to attract-- I expect
mostly kids and not AFOL’s. That is, I don’t expect they’re looking for antique
Lego sets, hordes of master-class MOC’s, etc., but more for
interactive-child-targeted displays.
36,000 square feet though? That’s pretty impressive. Does BLOC still have
regular meetings (I notice the website and NG look mildly inactive)? That may be
a great place for public displays! Or a good BLOC meeting space :)
