LEGO Architecture

[grand cru no 2]

I thought this was really impressive and thought I'd share it with you guys. Yes, I know it has nothing to do with cigars but how often do you see a:

LEGO Church:

Build time: It was about a year and a half of planning, building and photographing.
LEGO pieces: more than 75,000
Size: About 7 feet by 5 ½ feet by 30 inches (2.2 m x 1.7 m x .76 m)

It seats 1372 LEGO people, has 3976 windows, and features:

a balcony, a Narthex, stairs to the balcony, restrooms, coat rooms, several mosaics a nave, a baptistery, an altar, a crucifix, a pulpit and an elaborate pipe organ.

Pretty cool. That reminds me, I've got all my legos in a box around here somewhere...maybe there is a way to finally build my own Martini and Cigar bar.

i have heard of a place in PA (?) called lego land, or something like that. they have scale replicas of the Capitol building, the White House, Eiffel Tower and a boat load of other famous structures. I didn't realize the lego people were so religious :whistling:

That's pretty cool right there! I remember seeing some kind of Lego display when I was in Chicago 3-4 years ago around Christmas. I think it was in some kind of mall???
