Bricksboro Beach
Bricksboro Beach is a collaborative project built by 11 members of the Brickish Association for the Great Western LEGO show held in Swindon on October 3rd and 4th of 2009.
It started with Ed Diment (Lego Monster) and I discussing ideas for building a 'thirties airport with hangars, planes from that era and a nice art-deco terminal building. We soon started discussion adding more art-deco buildings and not long after that we decided to drop the whole airport idea and go for a beach community similar to Miami Beach.
Ed coordinated the build and got more members involved: Stuart Crawshaw, Mandy Dee, Annie Diment, Naomi Farr, Jonathon Goldsworthy, Ian and Julie Greig, Doug Idle and Darren Smith. Many of the minifig scale MOCs that I've built in the last two to three months were intended for this project and I think all of us involved are justifiably well-pleased with the end result of all of our work.
Similar to parts of Miami Beach, Bricksboro Beach is a peninsula with the ocean on one side (on the right side in this picture) and a bay on the other (to the left).
