Built in the last years before World War II, the so called "Höhenstrasse" connects the hills in the north of the austrian Capital describing a half circle round the town. Route 38A is serving the eastern part of the road between Cobenzl Castle and Leopoldsberg and connecting it with the former village of Grinzing and S-Bahn station Heiligenstadt. The road is still showing it's interwar charme with cobblestones and old wires for the electricity, as a nice contrast to brand-new Citaro 8223. The bus just left Leopoldsberg terminus and is heading for Kahlenberg, Grinzing and Heiligenstadt after a short rain shower.
Built for the TBB Ninjago City collaboration at BrickCon 2018. The original set is one of my favorites of all time, and I had a lot of fun building a tribute. This tiny urban seaside park harbors a grand pagoda built over a sea cave. There is a flower market in the canal, and the levels above include a teahouse, maritime supply store, eel stand, cafe, and mini mart. All have full interiors.

Originally built for CCCXI, I ran out of time halfway through the build. I decided to forget the contest so that I could finish this right. 2 Months to build as I had time.
As far as what this is, its an old pirate outpost built on top of an old imperial outpost taken over by Quathos Steelmane and his band of mercenaries. These fellows are more than happy to supply the local pirates with steel as long as they have the coin.
Huge thanks to Trull whose work inspired this build. (fantastische-welten.blogspot.de/p/piraten.html)
Built and much altered during the Neolithic period, roughly between 2850 BC and 2200 BC, the henge survives as a huge circular bank and ditch, encircling an area that includes part of Avebury village. Within the henge is the largest stone circle in Britain – originally of about 100 stones – which in turn encloses two smaller stone circles.
Avebury is part of an extraordinary set of Neolithic and Bronze Age ceremonial sites that seemingly formed a vast sacred landscape. They include West Kennet Avenue, West Kennet Long Barrow, The Sanctuary, Windmill Hill, and the mysterious Silbury Hill.
Well kids, as a guy who grew up in Saint Louis watching a team that played in the American Association from 1882-1891 and then the National League when Major League Baseball began in 1892 I've witnessed and walked among baseball history all my life. Outside of Busch Stadium are statues of Stan "The Man" Musial, Enos Slaughter, Dizzy Dean, Rogers Hornsby, Red Schoendienst, Lou Brock, Bob Gibson and Ozzie Smith; former St. Louis Browns player and Hall of Fame inductee George Sisler; former Negro league St. Louis Stars player and Hall of Fame inductee Cool Papa Bell; and former Cardinals radio broadcaster and Hall of Fame honoree Jack Buck. On Thursday Arpil 13th 2017 the Seattle Mariners unveiled their first statue of their first Hall of Fame player, Ken Griffey Jr. (HOF Broadcaster Dave Niehaus has a nice one inside) The word was that in 1995 that baseball would leave Seattle unless we built them a new stadium and it wasn't looking good until the Mariners led by the kid with the sweet swing got hot and reminded everyone how great this game is. Safeco Field is a marvel and a joy to attend and baseball thrives still in the Pacific Northwest.

Built as a sentry post for a nearby fort, this has been used for many years as a navigational mark for boats and is sited above Fermain bay. You can enter it through a spiral passageway.
Built circa 1801 by Nicholas Venning as a summer home, this house was once known as Skipper’s View when the Mount Pleasant Historic District was created in 1973. A subsequent owner has renamed it “O’ Be Joyful”.
Built in 1877 in the "Second Empire" style, the Chippewa County Courthouse was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. This architectural style, with a mansard roof and square-based tower was common in the 1800s.
John Scott, the architect, designed this building, giving it two-foot thick stones walls, and a tower that is fronted by a statue of "Justice".

Built in the 1960s to NATO specification, and at the height of the Cold War, the Scottish Fuel Depots situated at Garelochhead (adjacent to the Clyde Naval Base), Loch Striven (near Dunoon), Loch Ewe (in Wester Ross) and Campbeltown provide a mainly maritime fuelling facility to visiting UK & NATO vessels.
Capacity of all 4 sites at the time of original build totalled 702M litres, capable of handling Gas Oil and Aviation fuel. This total has since reduced to 600M litres due to infrastructure reductions at Garelochhead. With the withdrawal particularly of the US Navy from the West Coast of Scotland, the UK-only requirements for fuelling have dropped to today’s forecast prediction of approx 50M. Periodic reviews have continued to confirm that from a military perspective the 4 depots and their location are nonetheless strategically required in spite of the considerable excess capacity held.
The challenge therefore was either to offset MOD’s overheads and liabilities by reducing running costs of each site to a minimum care and maintenance basis or to find some means of exploiting the spare capacity whilst retaining the military capability.
Built for a UK car build-off over on Instagram. Definitely a little different than my norm, and I'm still not completely satisfied with the front. Maybe another version will come sometime.
I'm pretty sure that rear fender idea is Calin's.
Romanian built hydraulic 219084 approaches Saalfeld on the Saalebahn with a short mixed freight on the 30 May 1994. I didn't see many freights hauled by these locos on this visit and once sectorisation kicked in, they seemed to exclusively work regional passenger services.
Built in 1852, this Gothic Revival-style house was built for J. B. Shipman, and was later purchased by Elizabeth Mills, and her husband, Professor J. L. Mills, in 1877. Elizabeth and J. L. Mills established Elizabeth College for Women, now part of Marietta College, in 1893. The house features a painted brick exterior, a gabled roof, two-over-two double-hung windows, decorative sawn wooden gingerbread trim on the gable ends, a one-story bay window on the side gable, and a wrap-around porch with stop-chamfer columns and decorative brackets. The building is a contributing structure in the Marietta Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974, and expanded to its present size in 2001.
Excerpt from the plaque:
In 1873 King Gojong built Geoncheonggung in between the garden hill of Noksan and Hyangwonjeong Pavilion and resided here together with his queen, Empress Myeongseong. Unlike other palace bedchambers, Geoncheonggung was built in yangbank household style with the main quarters (Jangandang), inner quarters (Gonnyeonghap) and an annex (Boksudang). The building is 2.5 times larger than the uppermost limit of a yangban household. When a fire broke out in Gyeongbokgung Palace in 1876, King Gojong moved to Changdeokgung Palace and came back to live in Geoncheonggung in 1885 and resided here for 10 years until 1896. Geoncheonggung was the first place in Korea to have electric lights fitted up in 1887 by the Edison Electric Light Company, and was also the scene where Empress Myeongseong was murdered by Japanese assassins in 1895. Geoncheonggung was demolished in 1909, when the Japanese colonial rule tore down many parts of Gyeongbokgung Palace and the Japanese Governmen-General Art Gallery was built in its place. The gallery was later used as the National Museum of Contemporary Arts and was demolished in 1998. Geoncheonggung was restored to its former state by the Cultural Heritage administration and open to the public in October 2007.

Built in 1922, this 3 mile stretch is all that remains of what is known as the “Ribbon Road” a 9 foot wide paved stretch of old Route 66. It is said that Oklahoma could not afford to pave the entire length of the road so they paved only half the width of the road.

Built in lava pits of Mount Elementary - the dark lord rules behind his ebony walls....
What is he planning?

I had the honour of doing a MOC deep dive for New Elementary for the Sith Mosaic Set.
Here's my build for the Thick Separator, check out my full analysis at
Some infos:
About 7000 pieces. The hull is more than 4 feet long and with the sail the total length is about 5 feet 2 inches.
No glue, no tape. The only none Lego elements I used are the sails, strings and 6 one-foot long aluminum technic axles used for reinforcement.
No modified bricks... I just take advantage of the tolerance (gaps) between bricks! The compound curve on the hull comes almost nature thanks to its own weight. Let it sag by itself :)
Built by Alco Schenectady in October, 1942 for the US Army Transportation Corp., It served on a number of tourist railroads before showing up on the Watertown Central. Looking good starting out for a photo run by in Watertown, NJ.
Any idea what kind of beetle this is? I don't think I have seen one like it. Hairy and built like a tank, this beetle was camouflaged quite well.
I had no end of trouble getting the exposure right and in fact overexposed the raw files quite a bit. I had somehow accidentally set my metering to spot metering when pulling the camera out of the bag, and it wasn't until after the stack that I finally realized what I had done. Oops!
This is a 137-shot field stack, natural light. The beetle did move a bit during the stack, but not enough to ruin it.
Built in 1849-1850 by Louis Bernard for the Drapeau seigneuries, it was the common mill of the Lepage-Thivierge seigneury until the abolition of the seigneurial regime in 1854. The mill produced flour until 1926. After this date, it was used as a tourist information office (1941-1979), restaurant (1990s), training center (since 2000) and tourist bed and breakfast (since 2006). Its mechanisms were removed in the early 1990s. It was completely restored from 2000.
Not sure this even made it to the celebrations at Alstrom, but it certainly didnt go in steam.
Here in happier days No.1000 emerges from Marsh Lane cutting at Leeds.

The Dodson House, built in 1894, is significant for its association with persons who played important roles in both the social & economic development of the small West Tennessee town of Humboldt. The house is an excellent example of Queen Anne architecture and is located in the older residential neighborhood of the town.
W.H. Dodson, a Humboldt banker, organized and established the Haywood County Bank in Brownsville, Tennessee in 1889. His son, William, was duly elected assistant cashier of the financial institution. William remained with the bank until the fall of 1892 when he moved to Humboldt and established a real estate company. In February 1893, William Dodson purchased a town lot from W.N. Bennett for the amount of eight hundred dollars. Early in 1894, he began to oversee the construction of this Queen Anne style residence which was completed by that fall.
After William Dodson's death in 1904, his son George moved from Knoxville to Humboldt and practiced law in Humboldt for four years before purchasing the Ford automobile dealership. In 1931 William Hooper, grandson of William Dodson, moved into the family home after graduation from Vanderbilt University. He soon became associated with Dodson Ford dealership and in 1950 he purchased all rights to the dealership. Mr. Hooper was active in community affairs and served on the Humboldt Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors, the West Tennessee Strawberry Festival Board, and the Ford Dealer Council Board (Memphis District).
Architecturally, the Dodson House is a good example of the Queen Anne style residence. Although the interior of the house was altered by the Hooper family, much of the original fabric was retained. The present owners, who purchased the house in 1980, are restoring the interior and plans have been developed for the restoration of the exterior. For these reasons, this house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on March 25, 1982. All of the information above was found on the original documents submitted for listing consideration and can be viewed here:

A member of Historic Hotels of America since 1999, The Colony Hotel & Cabana Club is among the most historic holiday destinations in all of Florida. Many have hailed this spectacular resort as a timeless masterpiece, often calling it “the best-known landmark” in Delray Beach. The facility debuted as the “Alterep Hotel” in 1926, after a group of investors led by Albert T. Repp had spent some $350,000 to finance its construction. Repp and his colleagues had decided to build such a magnificent structure due to Delray Beach’s growth as a prestigious resort community during the Roaring Twenties. Florida itself was in the midst of a lively—yet short-lived—real estate boom, in which Americans from across the nation built countless residential and commercial structures as a means of escaping the harsh northern winters. Delray Beach was no different from any other coastal community in Florida at the time, as businesspeople like Repp developed its shoreline with new luxurious retreats.
Designed by architect Martin Luther Hampton at the behest of Repp, The Alterep Hotel was perhaps the greatest structure built within the city in the 1920s. Standing three stories tall, its brilliant Spanish Colonial Revival-style architecture brilliantly commemorated the state’s Hispanic heritage. The resort’s gorgeous stucco walls and iconic domed towers made it incredibly unique when compared to many of its fellow local destinations. Inside, a Spanish Galleon was carved into the lobby’s central mantle, highlighted in hues of gold and silver. Stunning terrazzo floor tiles proliferated throughout the space, as did wrought iron chandeliers and sumptuous antique floor lamps. An Otis & Company elevator ferried guests throughout the building to one of several dozen guestrooms located onsite. The contraption was absolutely beautiful, for it featured cut-glass panels, dark wood trim, and even a hand-closed metal gate. Fixx Reed wicker furniture filled every public space and guestroom, too, which Reep had acquired directly from the upscale John Wanamaker Store in Philadelphia.
Despite its grand, luxurious character, the Alterep Hotel struggled immensely to generate business during the first few years of its existence. Right when it seemed that Repp and his associates were about to turn a corner financially, the Great Depression struck with merciless fury. Businesses and property values collapsed all over Florida, spelling doom for entrepreneurs like Albert T. Repp. With no way to save the enterprise, Repp subsequently foreclosed on the Alterep Hotel. Fortunately, salvation arrived in the form of George and Agnes Boughton. The two were newlyweds who had stumbled into Delray Beach almost by accident. They initially wanted to drive straight down to Key West, where they would take a cruise to Havana. But social unrest in the Cuban capital caused the two to unexpectedly cancel their trip. George then contacted his father, Charlie, for help, as the latter was a veteran hotelier up in New Jersey. Finding new accommodations in Atlantic City, the couple started the long drive back to the northeast. Yet, when the two briefly stopped in Delray Beach, they immediately fell in love with the abandoned Alterep Hotel. George and Agnes eventually spoke with Charlie about the prospect of acquiring the bankrupted business. After much discussion, the Boughton's paid some $50,000 to buy the ailing resort in 1935. Renaming it as “The Colony Hotel,” the family’s subsequent stewardship saw the resort emerge as the hottest attraction in Delray Beach. They invested thoroughly into its revitalization, installing a wealth of new amenities and facilities throughout the structure. George even developed the famous “Cabana Club” on a 250-foot strip of land along the Atlantic Ocean. This fabulous venue contained a heated saltwater pool, authentic tropical fauna, and complimentary cabanas. The Colony Hotel and Cabana Club have since remained in the Boughton family to this very day. Much of the original architecture and décor remains the same, too! The resort even has 50 pieces of the historic Fixx Reed furniture that first arrived over a century ago. The Colony Hotel and Cabana Club is thus one of Florida’s best historic destinations.
