Just to suggest how you might incorporate a variety of time periods into
one display, consider some of the older cities of the world (especially the
european ones that weren't ravished by the bombs of war) that have very
antiquated architectural elements surrounded by modern conveniences. You
could definitely have a coastal fort from the 1800's in a 1920's setting.
Maybe the fort has hence been transformed into a grainary or factory of some
type. As the roads get further away from the fort and the Olde Down Town
section of the display, the buildings could get more modern. Meanwhile, the
minifigs could be garbd in the latest fashions of the day. Get my drift?
just a suggestion.
