I made another 3x scaled vintage Lego set from 1983, this one being 6692 Tractor Trailer. Features include a working tilting cab, working roof hinge, foldable trailer stand and opening rear doors. Challenges included creating the bigger tire, a 1x1 round brick, the various hinges, alongside a new minifig headwear.
This creation was submitted to Lego ideas 90 year celebration contest with the potential to be displayed in the Lego house. All parts for this MOC alongside any share "pieces" from my Festival of Mundanity entry were built within the timeframe of Lego's official contest.

Forest Fair Mall opened in 1989 with upscale anchors that included Bonwit Teller, B. Altman, Parisian, and Sakowitz. It also included Bigg's and Elder-Beerman as anchor stores. It consisted of 1.5 million square feet; the third largest mall in the US at the time. By the mid 1990s, all of the high-end stores left the mall (B. Altman and Sakowitz ended up going out of business altogether). By the time 2008 rolled around, ALL of the original anchors had closed.
Through the years, the mall had a handful of owners and was renamed at least 3 times over the years. It was known as Forest Fair Mall until 2004 when the Mills Corporation reopened it as Cincinnati Mills Mall after a $70 million renovation project which booted all of the inline stores and kept the theaters and what anchors had remained. Simon Malls acquired the Mills malls in 2007; in 2009 the mall was sold again and was renamed Cincinnati Mall, as the mills name didn't transfer with the sale. The mall's fourth name, Forest Fair Village, was announced in 2013, but that name appears nowhere on the building.
It could be argued that this mall should never have been built, as two other well-established malls (Northgate and Tri-County) are within 15 minutes of this mall and a third (Kenwood Towne Center) isn't too far away. Added to that is the fact that the blue-collar communities of Forest Park and Fairfield, where the mall is situated, were not able to support the high-end retail this mall originally featured. Finally, the exit where this mall is located did not develop the supporting retail as the aforementioned areas did.
At this point, I can count about 5 inline storefronts and three anchors that are open, plus one food court establishment. All of the rest of the shops show various degrees of closure - some have their gates pulled down, some have the gates pulled with plastic or tarp covering them and the store windows, and some have even had their entrances drywalled off.
Flying a gorgeous build, an upsized tribute to the designer of the Aerotech Warthog rocket kit who has left us to rest in space.
My newest building is inspired by a condo featured in one of my favorite new TV series, Orphan Black, filmed on location in Toronto.
On the upper level still, here we have a look at the mall's center court. All of the kiosks have closed up shop; this is primarily used as a resting place for the mall walkers.

The Delano is an upscale resort hotel located at 1685 Collins Avenue in sunny Miami Beach, Florida. The resort features 194 guest rooms, suites and lofts, and is located directly on the beach. Delano is now a part of the Morgans Hotel Group collection. The Delano is known for its whimsical, art-deco styling and its celebrity clientele. The lobby is a mecca for late-night minglers.
In 2007, the Delano Hotel was ranked in the American Institute of Architects list of "America's Favorite Architecture". On April 18, 2012, the AIA's Florida Chapter placed the Delano Hotel on its list of Florida Architecture: 100 Years. 100 Places.
The Delano was designed in 1947 by famed architect Robert Swartburg. The Delano was built in 1947 by Rob and Rose Schwartz. The hotel was originally used for military housing and more.
The then four-winged Art Deco tower of the Delano was the tallest building in Miami, dwarfing the Miami News & Metropolis (Freedom Tower) built in 1925 in downtown Miami and rising majestically above the sand and surf of Miami Beach.
The 1994 renovations were designed by Philippe Starck. The hotel is named after Franklin D. Roosevelt the 32nd President of the United States of America.

Now an upscale restaurant, the Grand Concourse at Station Square used to be the main train/ railway station of the Pittsburgh & Lake Erie Railroad. In 1873, the Pittsburgh & Lake Erie Railroad (P&LE) was first chartered and in 1877, construction began on a rail line connecting Pittsburgh to Youngstown. In 1879, the P&LE officially opened for commercial traffic and later became known as the Little Giant for the amount of tonnage that it moved.
By 1970, passenger traffic stopped using this station. Thankfully the building was not demolished but rather re-developed into a mixed-use hotel, office, retail, dining and entertainment complex in the 1990s.
The upscale 900 North Michigan was developed by Urban Retail Properties and opened in 1988 with Bloomingdale's as its anchor store.
The design of 900 North Michigan corrected several design flaws in Water Tower Place including an easier-to-navigate layout and placing Bloomingdale's at the back of the mall to draw shoppers past the specialty stores.
