This clothing alterations and repair shop that I call 'Swift Tailoring' (See if you get the joke! ) is modified from the smaller building in 2024 Harry Potter set number 76439 - Ollivanders & Madam Malkin's Robes. It has been heavily modified and features a new back half and revised interior. Here we see the building and it's owner. The rear of the building. Please excuse the badly discolored purple 1x6 brick. I chose the best side for the front, forgetting the back would also be visible at some points. The inside of the building. The lower floor has three mannequins for displaying clothes and a cash register, while upstairs has a workshop area with sewing machine, a table, some boxes, plus another mannequin. "Fun" fact about constructing this building: I broke three or four window glass trying to get them into the purple window frames. How, you ask? Apparently at some point while this part was made (It's only in one set), they changed the mold and it wasn't made right with the glass opening being slightly too small for some panes of glass. (they replaced this mold after a while with a fixed version) I managed to get all the glass in, but before that I had to raid my parts supply for more - which I then found out I only had a single spare left! (Luckily, that last one wasn't needed.) Thoughts on this MOC?

I've had this MOC (originally inspired by the bank from set 79109, Colby City Showdown from the 2013 Lone Ranger theme) made in the real world for about a decade, and I thought it was high time to redo it into a modular style, as it is very close to that scale / size. I added a new neon sign out front that says 'piano bar' to the model, as the old 'saloon' one was removed seven years ago and it didn't look good anyway. You can view the original 2015 neon sign here. The 1890s-style building has two floors, a flat roof, and a removable base for easy conversion from modular to non-modular. The rear of the building really hasn't got any details. On this level are the bar where drinks are served, a few tables, and the stairs to the second floor. Of course, with this build being set in the 1920s, all the drinks are non-alcoholic. (...or at least they're supposed to be!) On the second floor is the piano and more tables. I can just about hear the piano player now... Thoughts, comments, questions and so on are welcome!
