I may do some kind of restaurant module so the extra space is taken up by blank space on other baseplates for my buildings. KFC will return next time, Taco Bell and Pizza (...)

Peter, a restaurant module sounds good.Lets say you have a 7 plate area for those 4 restaurants...knowing that you could do drive thru,parking lot etc.As a side note Steve R. has your buildings.He offered to take them as he has more space and (...)

| | | | | I'll try for 6 (2 x 3) plates, but it might end up 8 (2x4). That will include the KFC, McDonald's, parking/drive-thru, and IHOP. I'll do it on baseplates with a raised "berm" as someone called it, kind of like Steve did with the turntable, to hold (...) (23 years ago, 23-Jul-01, to lugnet.org.us.michlug)

We lay down these roadways and the edges of the roadplates end up being wasted space, because the building is built in the middle of another baseplate. Some sort of modular approach (...)

Maybe we can do both, a classic downtown, short enough for people to see and the one we have now. Scott -- (23 years ago, 23-Jul-01, to lugnet.org.us.michlug)

I definitely agree with Scott on the combo approach (and I think Larry's saying the same thing)--for some areas, like my restaurants, closing them in makes a lot of sense. For (...)

Let me revise what I just said in response to Chris--I should have no problem doing this in a 3x3 baseplate space (30"square) with the front three of those being roadplates.
