Great article But also 21025 still has never been mentioned. And now were up to 21031. With still a set number open.

To many Washington pieces. Even Lincoln memorial came out 21025 is still an unknown.

I remember that and reading. When it was completed they would release a creator set of it. One of the large sets. But that was just a runout.

Mr Gold !! Prices for that are way too high Its more expensive then real gold

Great find. Let the speculation begin. For UK hoping for The Shard, 30 St Mary axe, Tower bridge. USA Trump tower Chicago. A proper One WTC I know earlier in this thread "Cwetqo" mentioned US Capitiol Building. Could this be true? http://brickset.com/sets/21029-1 http://brickset.com/sets/21030-1/%7BUS-landmark%7D

If going sports complex. Philly has 4 all in the same area. Rogers centre has the CN tower right beside it. Could do both like that. But if they did stadiums. Yankee,Wrigley, Fenway would be the first 3 of baseball. O2 arena in London. Birdsnest in Beijing from the 2008 Olympics. Actually an intresting idea the more I think about it.

Grande Arche Yes It's a hollowed out cube but it's a very modern building compared to the others listed This new line has me excited in the line again. Shanghai has a skyline id like to see in a set too. Towers are still my favorite. Taipei 101 I may try making a custom going off that picture. Just need to figure out the piece or element ID of that slopped piece.

Well when the set names leaked on amazon Germany. They each had a price with them. Venice (21026) – EUR 29.99 Berlin (21027) – EUR 29.99 New York City (21028) – EUR 49.99 Burj Khalifa (21031) – EUR 39.99 It is in euros. But if accurate you all can see the price it's going to be about in your denomination from seeing how set prices relate now.

I love this new line. Allows Lego to get a lot of buildings at once. Chicago and Shanghai skyline are top of my wish list. Does look like flatiron. And One WTC has 2 colours which is weird. But I'll give then a chance and wait until it releases. Berlin I really like too.. And the new Burj is much better. But still feels like a waste. Towers are my favorite part of architecture. It's why I got into the field. Taipei 101 or Petronas towers would have been a much better then another Burj khalifa

Well today is release date. Congratulations tom on reaching today! Although I don't think this book could be found in Canada. My amazon order is delayed 1-2 months ( Alphin, Tom "The LEGO Architect" Estimated arrival date: October 23, 2015 - November 23, 2015) And sold out on indigos website. Sorry tom But going to have to wait a couple months to hear my impressions.

What's this about the US Capitol building ? I know no photo. But a link to anything. Or even set number?

Thanks for the description Can't wait to see pictures. To see the new line https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fernsehturm_Berlin For Berlin I believe this would be the tower And Chrysler tower covered by flash id assume

Not a regular on the starwars forums. But posting this since I never saw a topic on it. It's the fan expo exclusive set for this year. Comes with a R2-D2 mini figure. Unlike C3PO at the Star Wars celebration event. Here is a photo of both of them Last year and this years set.

Not to get off topic. Do you want an exo suit? I'm in Canada. The stores around me still have them I believe.

I ended up buying this on eBay for $90 shipped in June So I'm okay with that preorder price. Plus need to figure out shipping costs. I don't plan on opening this set. But I got it for it's rarity and exclusivity

I started collecting around series 8 I have complete sets of only 4 series Series 10 + Mr. Gold ( got him in a blind pack so paid only $3.99) Lego movie Simpsons series 1 and 2 All others I just buy the ones I want. My brother and I are pretty good at feeling them out.

Also 21025 is skipped.

I talked with someone in USA who got in contact with them ( I'm in Canada) Shipping to USA for this set is €158. Which is insanely high. And yea I'm the same. Different packaging and no name plate. So I'm ok with skipping this.

Not sure if lego teamed up with Hilton Paris Opera hotel or this is them selling a custom on their own. 2503 pieces €329 ( Euro) On sale until September 6th if I read that correctly. http://www.hothbricks.com/2015/08/lego-architecture-offrez-vous-lhotel-hilton-paris-opera/ Link is in French It says if you contact parisopera.info@hilton.com You can inquire about the set.

I think lego just asked them to take the pages down because not formally announced yet. Few years ago Barnes and Nobel put up 2 early on their site Eames house and villa Savoye (I think) Eames house ended up getting cancelled and leaning tower of Pisa came out instead. So you can be right and these may not come out. As for New York. It has been over done. Chrysler tower has been seen in one of the photos from the Sears tower or John Hancock tower instruction book. But those are on scale as the first 4 sets. And seems like those aren't done any more. Recent towers have been bigger ( Burj, Pisa, Eiffel) If it is a New York building I'm hoping it's one world trade centre.

21031 Could be a mistake and Burj khalifa should actually read Burj Al-Arab

Burj khalifa is 21031. 21018 is UN headquarters 21025, 21029, 21030 has no mention Each listing has the box size and weight in grams and they are all different from each other

I have a feeling the book was brick city. Also all well done. Each were recognizable. Intresting way to do the stratosphere. Wonder if the pieces come in white. Been a few times to Vegas. And a few I wanted to make in scale to the lego architecture line is the stratosphere. Or the trump tower with the gold shiny bricks lego has.

Thanks tom I have it preordered on amazon Canada I have it at $18.71 CAD I'm excited for it. Hoping for some inspiration to build a few of them

I was at Fallingwater at the end of May on vacation in Pittsburgh.. And they still had the lego set on sale. Trying giving them a call and see if they will ship. Or if in the Pittsburgh area stop by.
