While I do agree that these are great models (I thought it was a picture of a real home depot in the brickshelf gallery thumbnail), I have to disagree that every lego town needs one of these. I typically model dense urban areas where these stores (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jan-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.general)

(...) I'd love that, but I'd also like them to merge town and space--a Future City 2050 kind of thing. Lots of domes and future-looking buildings--an Art Deco/metropolic look would be really cool! Lots of curved pieces; a return of the curved pieces (...) (24 years ago, 22-Jan-01, to lugnet.town)
