@TKD
Thanks. I'll look into that

@Alex
Thank. I love doing classical buildings the most. Especially Art Deco.

@Sam
Thanks. The model is quite awesome. One part of it that I hope to pull off is the beams in the middle part. Needle and tread would do

Something else I hope to pull off is the area of the 1909 Metlife tower. I got the church but don't know how tall the building behind it is. If anyone can give me info on it, I'll appreciate it. If not the I'll have to stick with making the North tower, which I already have a diagram of ^_^

Took some time to measure the building thoroughly and it seems to be close to right. I did try to make it skinnier but it came out way too skinny especially the base. It was even skinnier than the older one. I did however notice that the base of the building goes in a angle and the other side of the building has two boxes(that's what i call them:P) at the bottom that is longer. So gotta go back and fix.

I can see the street view now so making the doors will be alot more easier this time

Sorry guys, gonna delay Woolworth to two more days. Made some changes that is totally worth the wait.

@TKD
About 70 Pine. I must admit, I was aware that it was a bit bulky. I worked on it today and made it a little more thinner. I just really didn't want to take some of the detail off it but I took my time today and it worked out fine without taking much detail off at all. Ima work on it a bit longer just to make sure every things right. PM me the Profile view when you get the chance.

Alot better now. Just ran into a little problem. I seen in the plan that the back goes in a angle so Im trying to get that right. I might have to delay it a longer, I just dont want to put just any 'o' thing on it just to get it done fast. The new clad cladding is nice though.

Since Im on I might as well give an updat.

Woolworth, not done yet. Ill have it up very soon though

TKD Ill send you the community city plan right now.

Ill be making a new Philly thread as well as a Hong Kong and. For Philly I got most of Center City streets done. Hong Kong I got outlines of all the buildings Im doing but not cladded yet and haven't stared the street plans. I do got some done like the two I showed here and ICC. I might cancel some of my NY plans so I can focus on my Philly and Hong Kong more. This thread will be used for random buildings as always
