International Affairs

Courtesy Consulate #1 by BrickCityDepot

Town Hall Square- (BTT) In an increasingly globalized world, more and more countries are becoming connected in ways that only 20 years ago seemed impossible. All of that connectedness doesn't always mean that everybody gets along, and that's where the consuls step in. Even in a (somewhat) unassuming building, decisions and treaties are being made to keep peace in the world. This great consulate from Brian (BrickCityDepot) gives all of the comforts of home to the foreign consul in Lego city, with a nice office, cafeteria area, and secretary's desk, all inside of the furnished interior. And the parking lot isn't too shabby either!

Modern Architecture

Indianapolis, Indiana- (BTT) Apartments aren't always blocky, boring, and repetitive. Sometimes, they're freestanding and unique. This fine building falls right into that category. From the "Vee" rooftop, to the glass-encapsulated bottom floor, this has all the traits of a modern city building. Apparently, it's not new enough to escape the touch of modern street art, or as the rest of us know it, graffiti. The large brick built street helps to draw the eye to the building, then it steadily progresses up to the skylight at the top, ending in a pleasing overall view.
