Its looking nice and dense now.
I suppose the all-blue building with the logo is your city's Air and (classic*) Space Museum?

* The spaceship and planet logo is associated with the first series of space related Lego kits which are now referred to by Lego geeks as "classic space".

Yeah most of my legos are old school stuff from the late 70's to early 80's. I raided the lego store in Seattle for the transparent blocks caue the store in DC sucks and doesnt have them. The blue wind shields are from the old space sets too I have a bunch of yellow ones also. Nice catch . The angled pieces on the government building are from my first castle, which was yellow.

I like it!

Is the rail thing on the left side of the city supposed to be light rail/monorail type thing? (Runs behind the yellow City Hall building)

Looks real futuristic!! The black tower in the middle with the spire looks somewhat like the Empire State Building!

Ok here is the last update. I'm now out of room and almost out of transparent tiles sooooo.. lol That was fun. I may actually take all the buildings off the board and put them on in a different order. I had one friend tell me that a natural disaster should hit the city... not sure i wanna go that route, yet.... lol

Thanks for all the comments

Cool. I like those wing designs also. I saw somewhere on the internet a guy who uses them sort of with the same style you've done here. Looks good.

That tall black tower and red one are cool. The small ones are interesting also. I always like seeing what other folks have done with their Legos.

I put all the buildings back on the board without the streets this time to make it a little denser. Well I ran out of buildings with a lot of space. I have a ton of legos but most of my transparent bricks are used here and on the larger town i am working on for my son's electric lego train set.

My stuff isn't even close to as cool of stuff as KFT's city.

I always wanted to get into the train stuff as a kid, but it was too expensive. Now days I don't have room for it with everything else. About the only place I could think of would be under the bed.
