Greetings, fellow Eurobrickers! I'm pleased to present my contest entry, the Great American Tower in my city of Cincinnati, Ohio. It's one of the newest and greenest additions to our skyline. I'll probably repost this after the contest with my own personal thoughts, things I learned about, some of the techniques inside it, self criticism, that sort of thing, but for now, it must stand on it's own. I hope you enjoy it! Some facts about the building courtesy of https://www.queencitysquare.com/ -- --- If you are interested in green buildings, you can follow the link above for a write up of its certification, but there are also more photos, fact sheets, and features of the building and Queen City Square. So, on to the build and myself. A while back I got the New York skyline set and The LEGO Architect by Tom Alphin and just loved them but haven't really MOCced anything in that scale. But while I love the NY microscale, it doesn't leave a lot of room for details, but in looking back at the older Architecture sets, I settled on the midi-scale? of the LEGO 21018 United Nations Headquarters, so my entry is more in that scale and should be about that size, per contest requirements. Each thumb you can click on for larger photos in Flickr.

Hey all! Just wanted to drop by and say hello. My name is Josh, I'm a local math teacher and life long Lego lover. Started building with my brothers, they designed and I did the manual labor Nowadays, I mostly collect minifigures and specialty pieces to use in my brick flicks. Be watching...my first one will be out within the next two months and I'm very pleased with it thus far! I'm also a musician and play several gigs around the Cincinnati area, mostly folk music, with my band called My Brother's Keeper. This will also tie into my brick flicks Glad to be a part of this group, I'm already having a blast!
