Built 1885 as Joseph Johnson's, Grade II listed building - on the corner of Market Street and Belvoir Street designed by architect Isaac Barradale. Taken over by Fenwick's in 1962 and closed in 2017, now a hotel.
The Wartburg is a castle originally built in the Middle Ages. It is situated on a precipice of 410 meters (1,350 ft) to the southwest of and overlooking the town of Eisenach, in the state of Thuringia, Germany. In 1999, UNESCO added Wartburg Castle to the World Heritage List.
It was the home of St. Elisabeth of Hungary, the place where Martin Luther translated the New Testament of the Bible into German, the site of the Wartburg festival of 1817 and the supposed setting for the possibly legendary Sängerkrieg. It was an important inspiration for Ludwig II when he decided to build Neuschwanstein Castle. Wartburg is the most-visited tourist attraction in Thuringia after Weimar. Although the castle today still contains substantial original structures from the 12th through 15th centuries, much of the interior dates back only to the 19th century.
The name of the castle is probably derived from German: Warte, a watchtower, in spite of a tradition which holds that the castle's founder, on first laying eyes on the site, exclaimed, "Warte, Berg -- du sollst mir eine Burg tragen!" ("Wait, mountain -- you shall bear my castle!"). It is a German play on words for mountain (Berg) and fortress (Burg).
Built buy Alco in July of 1952 this unusually clean RS3 sorts cars along the Mississippi River at Winona, MN on 02-16-1974.

Built for a 60 minute build challenge with the Saltybros earlier today. The challenge was divided in half, with the first half hour being the incorporation of the small tire piece. The second half hour required the incorporation of the handlebar piece. I'm incredibly proud of how the two parts came together smoothly!
Hope you like it!

Through the creations that I build, I hope to inspire other young (or perhaps older) LEGO builders to unleash their inner creativity. We all need a positive way to express ourselves, so let's allow LEGO to be an extension of us. Your creativity belongs to you, and nobody can take that away. Build what you want to build, and how you want to build it. Creativity Never Ends!

Built in June 1943 at the Roanoke East End Shops, it was 19 of 43. See here sometime in 89 or 90 on a fan trip out of Roanoke. Collecting cinders in the hair and eyes, I would do it again.
The type C class Cruiser, HMS Caroline, a poignant reminder of World War One at this time of remembrance. A survivor of the Battle of Jutland in 1916, her sleek lines made her capable of speeds of up to 30 knots.
Built in 1890 this old school is now the administration building for public school system of Rutland, Vermont.
Built in 1868 by architect John Fuller in neoclassical style, the castle was a gift from Henri Mitchell, a wealthy Liverpool merchant, for his wife Margaret. The castle cost more than £29,000 and took four years to build on nearly 1000 acres. In 1920, it was taken over by Benedictine nuns and used as a school for girls.
Built from 1897 to 1901, the Glenfinnan Viaduct was built from concrete and needs a little TLC now and then. Unfortunately the upkeep was in process when we visited, putting scaffolding, workers and their supplies in view at many locations along the structure.
For some of the compositions I had previsualized it was not possible to avoid evidence of the restoration work underway.

The extremely rare cargo aircraft F-BTGV - a Super Guppy Turbine (SGT) built by Aero Spacelines - was built in the 1960s based on the Boeing 377 Stratocruiser and during its lifetime primarily transported aircraft parts for the Concorde and Airbus models Final assembly plant in Toulouse. She is the first of only two Super Guppies to be used by the world's largest aircraft manufacturer, Airbus.
The Super Guppy with its voluminous fuselage was in use for almost a quarter of a century and made its last flight on July 1, 1996 to Bruntingthorpe, England. Since 2009, she has been cared for and restored with a lot of love and dedication by the “Super Guppy Restoration Project”.

Lavoisier was built at a transitional phase in the war against the Coalition. Ships of the Othaen fleet were typically under-armed compared to those of Tarsis, and until the latter began appearing in greater numbers the standard FAYS missile armament had been entirely adequate.
Unfortunately, the main armament of magazine-fed FAYS tubes along the forward dorsal ridge was mostly obsolete by the time Lavoisier entered service.
Built as a part of a Famine relief scheme in 1847, the spectacular Healy Pass begins at Adrigole Bridge in West Cork and finishes at Lauragh Bridge in Co. Kerry. The road winds through a rugged landscape between two of the highest summits of the Caha mountain range. Along the way there is 12 km worth of hairpin bends in a rocky terrain, making for a great experience for any who travel it.
Built in 1925 in a traditional historic style featured by neoclassicism and neo-baroque motives. Arhitect Artur Medlinger. Initially there were 100 rooms, four halls, terraces and a beautiful park with fountains around the building. In the 1930s there were held traditional jazz band concerts “Five o’clock tee dancing”. The building with corner pavilions is a monument of architecture.
Built for the EB Xmas Raffle 2017.
I wanted to build a Lego brick-shaped tree, but thought it wasn't enough, so I decided to add a floor. And a wall. And a fireplace. And Santa who's completely surprised by this strange tree. Yeah, I think I got carried away...
You can see the model in 3D on Mecabricks.
Built on a dolerite outcrop, the location was previously home to a fort of the native Britons known as Din Guarie and may have been the capital of the British kingdom of the region (see Gododdin, Bryneich and Hen Ogledd)[2] from the realm's foundation in c.420 until 547, the year of the first written reference to the castle. In that year the citadel was captured by the Anglo-Saxon ruler Ida of Bernicia (Beornice) and became Ida's seat. It was briefly retaken by the Britons from his son Hussa during the war of 590 before being relieved later the same year.
His grandson Æðelfriþ passed it on to his wife Bebba, from whom the early name Bebbanburgh was derived. The Vikings destroyed the original fortification in 993.
The Normans built a new castle on the site, which forms the core of the present one. William II unsuccessfully besieged it in 1095 during a revolt supported by its owner, Robert de Mowbray, Earl of Northumbria. After Robert was captured, his wife continued the defence until coerced to surrender by the king's threat to blind her husband.
Bamburgh then became the property of the reigning English monarch. Henry II probably built the keep. As an important English outpost, the castle was the target of occasional raids from Scotland.[citation needed] During the civil wars at the end of King John's reign, it was under the control of Philip of Oldcoates.[3] In 1464 during the Wars of the Roses, it became the first castle in England to be defeated by artillery, at the end of a nine-month siege by Richard Neville, 16th Earl of Warwick.
The Forster family of Northumberland[4] provided the Crown with twelve successive governors of the castle for some 400 years until the Crown granted ownership to Sir John Forster. The family retained ownership until Sir William Forster (d. 1700) was posthumously declared bankrupt, and his estates, including the castle, were sold to Lord Crew, Bishop of Durham (husband of his sister Dorothy) under an Act of Parliament to settle the debts.
Built in 1890 by W.B. Chaffey, the Rio Vista (Spanish for river view) mansion is being restored to its original condition. The comprehensive restoration program has included replacing ornate timberwork on verandahs, reinstating original doorways and staircases, and returning the drawing room to its original décor with recreation Victorian wallpaper and original colour schemes.
Built in Queen Anne style, the house features original furniture and fittings such as Italian marble fireplaces and Victorian leadlight and stained glass windows.
Rio Vista was first occupied by WB Chaffey and his family in 1892. It stayed a family home until the 1950s. The house was built during the height of the Chaffeys’ success, but the Chaffey Brothers Ltd Company went into liquidation in December 1895 and the brothers suffered financial ruin, causing Rio Vista to fall into a state of disrepair.
WB Chaffey moved into Rio Vista with his second wife Heather (Hattie) Sexton Chaffey and lived here until his death in 1926. Hattie Chaffey lived in the house until her death in 1950 at which time the house was purchased by the Mildura City Council for conversion into an art gallery.

Built in 1874 of locally quarried stone, the picturesque Mount Macedon Church of England sits on the Mount Macedon Road and is a local landmark of the small 'hill station' resort town of Mount Macedon. The church is a fine example of English Picturesque Gothic architecture, and its simple, unpretentious style is typical of a country parish church. It has very little ornamentation and features typical Victorian Gothic characteristics such as lancet windows, a parapeted gable and a steeply pitched roof.
A church has always been located on this site since 1863, when land was donated to the Presbyterian Church by local Mr. W. Kidd. It became a Uniting Church in 1977. In 1983, the church was gutted by the devastating Ash Wednesday Fires, leaving only three of the four external walls. The church has subsequently been lovingly and faithfully rebuilt and restored both inside and out. During spring and summer, the church's front wall is covered in a green ornamental grape vine, which turns a vibrant red in autumn, making it a tourist attraction that attracts people from far and wide.
The Mount Macedon township is located east of the Mount Macedon summit, which is approximately 60 km north-west of Melbourne.
The name of Mount Macedon is apparently derived from Philip II, who ruled Macedon between 359 and 336BC. The mountain was named by Thomas Mitchell, the New South Wales Surveyor General.
Settled in the 1850s by gold miners and timber cutters, the railway arrived at the Mount Macedon township in 1861, providing a vital connection to Melbourne, and sealing the town's future as a 'hill station' resort for wealthy Melburnians escaping the summer heat in the 1870s. With the land deforested, large blocks were sold and beautiful and extensive gardens were planted around the newly built homes. The rich soil and good rainfall also made the area suitable for large orchards and plant nurseries who could send fruit and flowers back to Melbourne. Newspaper owner, David Syme, built a house, "Rosenheim" in 1869. It was acquired in 1886 for Victorian Governors to use as a country retreat, making Mount Macedon an attractive destination for the well heeled of Melbourne society. A primary school was built in Mount Macedon in 1874, and as the decades progressed, hotels, guest houses, shops, a Presbyterian Church and Church of England were built. In 1983, Mount Macedon was devastated by the Ash Wednesday Bush Fires. A large portion of the town was raised, and a number of lives were lost. However, like a phoenix from the ashes, Mount Macedon has risen and rebuilt. Today it is still a popular holiday destination, particularly during spring time when the well established gardens flourish with flowers and in autumn when the exotic trees explode in a riot of reds and yellows.
Built upon the site of St David's 6th century monastery St Davids Cathedral has been a site of pilgrimage and worship for many hundreds of years and remains a church serving a living community. During the 10th and 11th centuries the cathedral was regularly raided by vikings arriving from the western seaways. A visitor in the 11th century found only an abandoned site with St David's shrine lost amongst the undergrowth.It is known that in 1089 the shrine had been removed from the church and stripped of the precious metals which had adorned it. "privilege" from Pope Calixtus II. St Davids became a centre for pilgrimage. In 1131 he dedicated a new cathedral and in 1181 work on the Cathedral we see today was begun.
Saint David (Welsh: Dewi Sant, Latin: Davidus; c. 500 – c. 589) was a Welsh bishop of Menevia during the 6th century; he was later regarded as a saint. He is the patron saint of Wales. David was a native of Wales, and a relatively large amount of information is known about his life. However, his birth date is uncertain: suggestions range from 462 to 512. The Welsh annals placed his death in 569,but Phillimore's dating revised this to 601.
Built circa 1800 in the Neoclassical style for Francis Simmons, a planter from Edisto Island, this Charleston Single House features a notable fence and gate with ornate details, added by George Edwards during his ownership of the house between 1816 and 1835. The house was also occupied after being sold in 1879 by James Adger Smyth, mayor of Charleston between 1895 and 1903. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971, and was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1973. The house presently has the distinction of holding several recent (now-broken) records for being the most expensive residential property on the Downtown Charleston Peninsula, as it sits in one of the most desirable locations within the city, and is a large, well-kept historic home.

Built in just over six months and using more than 55,600 pieces, Theramore Castle is my largest creation so far in my LEGO building experience. It's definitely not my landscape-focused norm, but it was a fantastic and difficult challenge to complete it.
This model is built as closely as possible to the actual Theramore Castle in the World of Warcraft Video Game.
Sorry the pictures aren't the highest quality. This MOC was so large that it was very hard to photograph!
Thanks for viewing and have a great day!

Loved the symmetry of this living room built-in. There is actually a tv behind the mirror. The glass is supposed to adjust when the tv is turned on, but I couldn't figure out how to work it so I left it alone before I broke something. :) If I could re-do this shot, I would have simplified the objects on the glass table and maybe just leave the orchids in front of either side of the fireplace.
Mostly ambient light with a little touch of strobe bounced off the ceiling in the right side adjacent room. Flashpoint 360 Streaklight at around 1/8th power I believe.
Built in 1928-1929, this Art Deco-style skyscraper was designed by Shreve and Lamb to serve as the headquarters of the R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, and was the tallest building in North Carolina when it was completed. The building served as a precedent for the firm's most famous structure, the Empire State Building, which was completed in New York City two years later. The 21-story building stands 314 feet (96 meters) tall, and features ten-story podiums to the north and east, a limestone-clad exterior with dark-painted metal spandrel panels, three-over-three double-hung metal-frame windows, setbacks at the top of the tower, decorative pilasters and carved sculptural reliefs on the spandrels, retail shopfronts at the base with Art Deco metal trim surrounds, and a recessed two-story entrance bay with brass doors and a transom featuring a decorative metal Art Deco screen. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014. In 2014-2016, the building was rehabilitated for adaptive reuse as the Kimpton Cardinal Hotel, along with an apartment complex in the upper floors known as The Residences @ the R.J. Reynolds Building.
