Some highlights include:

1. Pink trimmed sand green building
2. Maersk blue building!  (A lucky score I happened into:-)
3. New dark red building (converted from an ordinary red one I had already
built)
4. Large gray building
5. Handsome brownstones (my favorites)

In all, there are 7 new building MOCs, making the total 21 (IIRC).

Enjoy.

Hi John,

Nice stuff. I really like the large gray building....looks like the
warehouse/factory buildings in Long Island City, Queens. I like the look of
the first floor with the 'blocked in' windows.

I actually like the Maersk blue and sand green coloring for buldings as well
(the pink can go :o)...they come off as a little muted (as opposed to the
overbearing brightness of typical colors, blue, red etc).

Which buildings that you created do you consider 'brownstones'? I wonder if
brownstone has a different meaning in different parts of the country? To me
a brownstone is a city type house....not necessarily having a street level
store. Usually a building (brick, stone, mortar...not wood) with a basement
apartment, first, 2nd and 3rd floors--all livable.

Great stuff altogether.

Best,
Jonathan
