Hi, I'm Italian Lego's user, member of Itlug, thi is my first post and I hope you excuse me for my very bad english..I love the Lego City Theme but a little part of my heart is for pirats theme..

In the first gallery I build a town (WIP), Basson Brick (Basson is the name of my suburb in Verona, my real city) with modular style in the central position, on the left is present the train station and the farmer zone, on the right is present the tourist zone with a beach, restaurant, pizzeria, Mc Donald's etc and the Old Harbour, the characteristic but dangerous area of pirates and rascals, near the Old Harbour is present the big lightouse.

In the second gallery is present a modular Police Station of Basson Brick, inspired at the Italian "Questura" (Italian police HQ) and italian "Commissariato" (Italian police station)..the photos start by the second floor..In the down floor are present the Guard room, the weapon room, the prisons and the garages, in the first floor born the administrative office (immigration, passports, weapon permission), the complaint office and the wait room with drink machine

The second floor is the headquarter of chief's office, the CSI (polizia Scientifica) with photos room and the Detective office with mirror's room.

Nice! I myself have a have a seaside town, and I like the little details you put in.

The lighthouse is perfect is well, great job!

I really like your town. The lighthouse is just grand and the whole thing was better than I expected . Also you have some pretty good english, I could spot few errors .

Nice layout, I see some good MOC's, cinema is nice. It would be nice if you could post an overview photo of your city to give us a total overview.

btw, interesting scenery you have, this is not the thing I want to have with my kids around, but well.

Shouldn't there be a few mob guys doing this instead of the secret service ?

thanks for the compliments.

The city is WIP (the train station is incomplete also the road mantle), but for next weeks i complete the bigger part of the city and i post a new photos.

I forget in the description which in some zones of city is present some little "pieces" of my life...the Red Light District is dedicated at my visit to Amsterdam, the KFC is dedicated at my visit to Barcellona ( I discover this best fast food on the visit in the capital of Catalunya)..the lighthouse is dedicated to my holiday on Calabria ( coast region of south Italy), the Old Harbour is dedicated at my passion of Pirats Theme, the Cinema for my passion for the movies, the Baywatch tower with Pamela as one of best series of my past..baywatch..

Aawsum is a bit too really a city criminal (it will be the influence of the Italian mafia ), but on the other hand there is a big presence of police.

The secret services are on the side of the canal, on a desolate beach is present only a bum, ce above the Old Harbor of pirates!

You have a great town with a lot of interesting detail. I like your explanation for the different scenes that are connected to your life. It helps us make better sense of the town. I really like the little three wheel maintenance truck. They are all over my town of Monte di Procida here in Southern Italy. It is difficult to believe that such a small vehicle can make so much noise -- especially when climbing a hill.

A bit off topic: Your English language skills are excellent! As an American living in Italy for a few years, I am struggling to learn Italian. By the time I become comfortable with it, it will be time to return to the U.S. I am always impressed by how well forum members whose first language is not English communicate on this English speaking forum. I can just imagine how few Americans (including myself) would be able to post here if the forum language was Italian or German or French or Dutch or . . .
