“We gave one of these to an adult who works in NYC, and another to an experienced 9 year old LEGO builder. Both are pleased with the kit.They aren't shy about their pricing, but for sure their units never disappoint quality-wise”
“I am a huge fan of the Lego Architectural series and have bought and built most of the sets. I am particularly fond of the Skyline series. These sets are labeled age 12+, but they are clearly targeted to more mature builders, of which I am one. That said, if you are considering purchasing one of these sets for educational purposes, you would be spot on.Each set features well-known landmarks from an internationally-renowned city. The builds themselves are intricate and as detailed as possible, given the limited space. A particular plus is the premium build instructions booklet, which provides details concerning the landmarks. Guaranteed, you will learn something. A weakness of these same elegant booklets is that with very few exceptions they will not lie flat.All sets are elegant and suitable for display. A real bonus feature is that since the sets are so narrow, they are relatively easy to display. For example, most of the sets will easily fit on a bookshelf in front of the books.The New York City skyline set includes the Flatiron Building, the Chrysler Building, the Empire State Building, and the One World Trade Center building.”
