I’m glad you want to do vlogs on your city instead of reviews- I would much rather watch that content than reviews of sets I can see anywhere. Your city vlogs are why I am a subscriber.
Love seeing the progression of the city Bricksie! For the newly built masonry wall at 14:36, I cuould totally see that being used for a nice grafitti mural or some poster/billboard space if it was irl. not sure how that would look/work in lego
That wall was a masterstroke, it fits perfectly with the Bricklink train station and gives a nice stop point moving from the city into the amusement park.
The top of the tan wall by the train station needs some black decorative toppers of some kind to match the train station. It will make it look even more cohesive. Loving the downtown extension!
You can always tell when an “entertainer” is enjoying what they are doing. It makes whatever they’re doing so much more enjoyable to watch. It’s also great for the mental health of the entertainer and makes their work feel like less of a job. While I enjoy all of your content, I certainly enjoy your Mocs and other “projects” more.
19:30 for the plate beside it you could add another wall and have a section for the park employees to relax and get out of their mascot costumes, like what you had in the amusement park update from your previous city layout
You could build a community garden on the half plate spaces, Or perhaps build stores with apartments above. Loving these videos. I too have a Lego Town, although mine is primarily Lego friends - something not many have done. I'm envious you have the space to do this!
Hi Bricksie, great roadwork in the downtown expansion. Just as an idea. It would be cool if you would built some sort of a walking bridge over the disney train tracks and put the entrance of Bricksieland on top of it. The grand entrace will also greate extra hight and therefore the sign more visible 😃
boards on their wide side will bow under the weight. Straightening the edge will serve you much better. and you could use 2x4s on edge to give more clearance and would be stronger than the 2x6 laid flat.
Love the progress it looks so good. I prefer the city vlocs over reviews it is just unique and interesting where any review is all about the same thing the new set so yeah this content is so much more fun to watch
@Bricksie, just wanted to ask, in one of your vids I noticed inside your tub of doom there was a Acidicus. (And maybe others) If you didn't really need it, it would be so helpful if you could send it over as I have nearly completed my Venomari tribe. If not then that's ok. Also great vid!
16:17 my humble opinion on new Lego set reviews, sure it gets you views and sets early but ultimately it helps out Lego in the end and only puts stress and a time crunch on you and everything you have going on (family,city,new warehouse, happiness, etc) It's like doing dreaded overtime at a 9-5. 😂 I personally watch for the Lego CITY you're building. Maybe you can delegate the new set builds/review to Simon or someone if allowed? Or just say bye to them all together. It's your life, live it!
I totally agree! Being a member of LAN is a double edged sword! There are a bunch of LEGO set reviewers … but there are very few LEGO City builders that are as genuine as Bricksie and are very appealing to follow and watch!
At 19:59, you can see the caboose of the disney train right after talking about the empty spots. What about a mini walk up museum/photo Op before you enter the park? You put glass on the walls to see the engine, but maybe you could make the caboose boardable for like a walk-through thing? IDk just an idea, but the city looks incredible. Amazing work as always
Hey Bricksie - the city looks great! A word of caution about your carpentry work, installing the 2x6s horizontally may be enough to hold the weight of the Lego, but may not be sturdy enough to hold your own weight. I've seen past videos where you've gotten onto the tables to do work. Please be careful and you may want to consider reinstalling the 2x6s vertically like they were before.
One-way roads are also kinda more authentic for a downtown core... or at least every downtown I've ever been in was plagued with at least a few one-ways, lol. Looking great as always!
When you start on the amusement park you should integrate a railroad crossing into the entrance. I have seen plenty of park with tram lines and such in the road that guests can walk on. But usually there is some sort of signaling to let you know if the train or tram is approaching.
Looking good Jordan! The double height station has so much thought put in just like your other customs. I’m looking forward to seeing your new boutique hotel. Just a suggestion; I think it would be more commuter friendly to have your one-way system go counter clockwise that way the driver stays on the road side and passengers can get out on the right side in the pull-in areas (Im assuming your city is left-hand drive)
19:52 how about a bridge over the train tracks? The stairs could fit right next to the entrance (doubled back and maybe next to an elevator). the visitors could look out over the train, and it could lead to a ride or something else cool. I think if you’re going to have all the people waiting outside the park, they wouldn’t want to wait inside for a train to pass. Just something to think about. Cool video, and I’m glad to hear you’re enjoying yourself.
I see the Bean There, Donut That Lego set by the train station. Maybe you could put the set's included minifigures nearby, or at least the barista for serving up some Tim Hortons!
Love seeing the different builds and renovations you do for your city. I like it when you explain the different building techniques that you are using. It sounds like your creative side needs a little attention. Be creative!
The one way road looks great. An idea for the open space between train station and amusement park entrance, a food cart and picnic tables and a low wall so the eaters can watch the trains and rides.
For the empty space next to the bricksie land entrance you should make a dedicated parking lot for security cars since big major theme parks have lots of security
Loving the updates. An idea you could do next to the bricksie land entrance is you could turn the 16x32 plate into an employee area (custodian area, spare costumes and an employees break room) and the other part could be the park exit with a souvenir gift shop ( it expands the amusement park with out taking on much real-estate and good fillers for awkward areas) again loving the progress and the details
The downtown center is my favorite aside from the Zoo and Camp ground. Don't worry about the review LAN ambassador politics and upload schedule. SO MANY OTHER LAN tubers upload the same day, with the same exact videos. YOU Jordan, have a unique upload schedule and just keep doing you. If it's fun then keep it fun. We the fans have your back
There's a website you can get lego themed graffiti stickers for the wall next to the train station, it might look good and add some color to that small section.
I have a suggestion to address your parking predicament. Build a stackable parking structure, that's what a lot of down town cities do. You could build a parking structure where you can stack the levels so they are removable to set up scenes on each level.
You do realize that unfinished wood expands and contracts depending on the season and the humidity in the air. You are in a basement with a furnace it could be what is causing the issue of the wood warping. You should look into running a humidifier or dehumidifier to correct the issue.
You could a. place the multi-colour wall parallel to the Bricksie land entrance, road side, so the available studs are inside the park; b. remove the light bluish grey obstacles in the tan wall corner, in order to achieve more park places and facilitate the parking in the currently ones (e.g. the one with the limousine): you 'd have the spaces for vendors anyway; and c. do the same with the "peninsula" between the hotel and the station, where the man in black with ring is "flying".
The city is looking good. I have been trying to tackle projects in my city more lately compared to getting through my backlog of sets of the past 4 years. I just finished my grocery store moc recently, so I am glad that the next project is a modular 16 by 32 warehouse moc specifically designed for the moving truck promo.
The heck with the reviews. Just do the city stuff. Others have skipped the reviews as well and their channels have grown. Love the city, keep this going!
The city is looking unreal! The roads look good, maybe you can make custom roads in 8 stud or 16 stud sections to add more details like pot holes or whatever.
I’m liking the updates. I understand that doing the the reviews maybe not your thing alll the time, but remember it does help with your income and getting free sets doesn’t hurt either. Keep Brickin.
If you have a neighbor that has a jointer and a planer you can fix those 2x6s and make them perfectly square and straight. Ideally you shouldn't use 2x6's and instead use LSL's or LVL's.
For the spot between the train station and the amusement park entrance, how about a train themed cafe. The back could be all clear panels so you can watch the trains go by. You could re-moc your Platform 9 3/4 into a train/Harry Potter themed cafe. Also along the train line at the front of the table if you wanted a safety barrier I was going to suggest those pieces you removed from the amusement park entranced and called “tacky.” Just in a different colour like black. Would provide that barrier without it being a big wall all the way along.
The Bricksieland Entrance is looking great but thinking may be you should have a pedestrian bridge over the train track. Don’t think many Theme parks would get planning permission for a railway crossing. Needs a risk assessment!
This is just so awesome to watch. I love seeing your process and it reassures be that as I tweak my city, Ixm not being a perfectionist. I'm just enjoying lego
Which way does the one way street go? There are cars going opposite ways The area near the amusement park is looking better The boutique hotel needs a little more studs for minifigures, I think you took a little too much away The bus stop next to the train station makes sense
A mechanic's wheeled seat that's low to the ground may be a life saver for moving in and out of your table openings with the support boards' clearance now Secondly, you may be able to build and review the new sets based on "the ability to fit into this city" scale lol
PLEASE please please please consider moving the main line 🙂 I've been commenting since you added the big station but if you move the main line to run Infront of the theme park instead of behind the station can service both lines which would be perfect and awesome! I love the new station! I would say it is the best Moc I've seen you build. Only issue with my above suggestion is that one might need to relocate which is a real shame. Thanks for reading.
brick built roads do look way better in my opinion, the road plates are a great substitute but they just don't have that smooth finish the brick built roads have, and I feel like those rectangular pieces all over it really distracts from the detail around them.
![NISAMANEE - TADA (ท้าดา) [ OFFICIAL MV ]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/hcQHEPMmJpU/mqdefault.jpg)
I'd love to see you integrate a crater in the street where the Avengers are fighting to illustrate some destruction. That'd be pretty funny.
Great idea. Would look amazing.
❤❤❤
I’m glad you want to do vlogs on your city instead of reviews- I would much rather watch that content than reviews of sets I can see anywhere. Your city vlogs are why I am a subscriber.
You could add your gift shops to the base plates next to the entrance so they can be accessible to the public as well as the people in the park
Love seeing the progression of the city Bricksie! For the newly built masonry wall at 14:36, I cuould totally see that being used for a nice grafitti mural or some poster/billboard space if it was irl. not sure how that would look/work in lego
That wall was a masterstroke, it fits perfectly with the Bricklink train station and gives a nice stop point moving from the city into the amusement park.
You should do a bridge that goes over the amusement park tracks, looks great 👍👍👍
Appreciate your honesty. Do whatever makes you happy. Make video's you enjoy to make
The top of the tan wall by the train station needs some black decorative toppers of some kind to match the train station. It will make it look even more cohesive. Loving the downtown extension!
Reminds me of Glasgow with the one way system around the old train station!
You should do a bridge over the train line for ameusment park entence like a over walk like on rodes ❤

I think that is a good idea too.
It could also double as a viewpoint for people to get an overview of the theme park
boards on their wide side will bow under the weight. Straightening the edge will serve you much better. and you could use 2x4s on edge to give more clearance and would be stronger than the 2x6 laid flat.
Love the progress it looks so good. I prefer the city vlocs over reviews it is just unique and interesting where any review is all about the same thing the new set so yeah this content is so much more fun to watch
I'm so excited for the amusement park! It's my favorite part of the city!
More city work plz, don't stress about reviews. You help provide ideas and creative inspiration for the rest of us, imo.
Looks great, I love tuning in everyday to see a new Lego video!
@Bricksie, just wanted to ask, in one of your vids I noticed inside your tub of doom there was a Acidicus. (And maybe others) If you didn't really need it, it would be so helpful if you could send it over as I have nearly completed my Venomari tribe. If not then that's ok. Also great vid!

A tiered parking garage might be fun on one of the areas you have free, like a spiral one, lots of parking with a small footprint 😉
1 way roads are very fitting in Downtown
I always have a lot of fun watching your videos. Thanks!
Looking good Jordan! The double height station has so much thought put in just like your other customs. I’m looking forward to seeing your new boutique hotel. Just a suggestion; I think it would be more commuter friendly to have your one-way system go counter clockwise that way the driver stays on the road side and passengers can get out on the right side in the pull-in areas (Im assuming your city is left-hand drive)
And I have a ton of road plates ….. the finer details will come when the city is complete…. Which of course will be never . Looking awesome .

awesome video jordan i love all the new changes all the details looks amazing great job
Awesome city update

amazing episode! Lets finish Bricksie Land! the building next to the hospital looks amazing, could you share the instructions, thank you.
I think a parking garage that fit your cars would be awesome
I think little slopes for cross the street would be a nice addition to be handicap friendly near train station
Using parts 15068, 29119 and 29120
Dang, Oilers gave it to us. Congrats. Enjoy the win
Your city would make a great open world map in a video game
Don’t forget to enjoy what you do because this is great stuff!!
The city is looking good. I have been trying to tackle projects in my city more lately compared to getting through my backlog of sets of the past 4 years. I just finished my grocery store moc recently, so I am glad that the next project is a modular 16 by 32 warehouse moc specifically designed for the moving truck promo.

The city is looking unreal! The roads look good, maybe you can make custom roads in 8 stud or 16 stud sections to add more details like pot holes or whatever.
Maybe you could add some black brick detail to your masonry wall to mirror the train station. Roads look good👍🏼
Cool Lego city 🌆
Personally I enjoy the city update vlogs much more than Lego reviews.
Bricksie showing us how much you can accomplish in just one day! Love your city progress and the detail! 🤩🙌
Any updates on the warehouse? Still thinking you will do that?
I think the one way street is actually an improvement to the city. It makes it look more realistic 😊
I’m liking the updates. I understand that doing the the reviews maybe not your thing alll the time, but remember it does help with your income and getting free sets doesn’t hurt either. Keep Brickin.
Put a quasi roof un top of the new wall, it will give it some character
It would be a lot of work, but you could make a bridge over the amusement park train track.
If you have a neighbor that has a jointer and a planer you can fix those 2x6s and make them perfectly square and straight. Ideally you shouldn't use 2x6's and instead use LSL's or LVL's.
Looking great Bricksie can’t wait to see more - thanks to you I have started doing MILS plating oh boy it’s so part intense but so worth it
Maybe try the onces used for the middle of the road plates? (Maybe to thick)
It would be pretty cool to build a modular parking garage.
On the one way street, you may want to put some one way signs up.
I think you should make a downtown parking garage. That is like 3 covered floors and one roof deck.
barbed wire on top of the wall by the trains would be cool, and fitting
What about adding a small building next to bricksie land entrance, Disney train carriage tour as the trains right there
You were talking about the Boutique Hotel and how it is not done and at bothers you? You could have just said that it is under construction.
Why not have a small park/waiting area by the train station? You have all those open studs, and I know a waiting area might be a good idea.
hey bricksie! I have an idea for the amusement park! make like a colossus fire dragon from the lagoon in there! it would look very cool :)
For the spot between the train station and the amusement park entrance, how about a train themed cafe. The back could be all clear panels so you can watch the trains go by. You could re-moc your Platform 9 3/4 into a train/Harry Potter themed cafe.

This is just so awesome to watch. I love seeing your process and it reassures be that as I tweak my city, Ixm not being a perfectionist. I'm just enjoying lego
Hey Bricksie, I think a dog park on one of the open plates in the city would be sick
Looking good. I think those walls either side of amusement park entrance go too close to road. Couldn't get a kids pram through that gap. :)
With the baseplate near the entrance of amusement park that could be a car park
i would turn the one way road the other direction, making it easier to pull off to train station
13:02 is that even a Lego piece?
You should build a mini scale Rogers Place
Screw reviews. All the people just wanna see city updates!!
Starting to look pretty cool 😎.
did you make a video on the boutique hotel, how you modified it? If not can you please do one!
Thanks so much.
I want to live here!
What about building a large(r) multi store parking garage? That would solve your parking issues for a large area.
Which way does the one way street go? There are cars going opposite ways
The area near the amusement park is looking better
The boutique hotel needs a little more studs for minifigures, I think you took a little too much away
The bus stop next to the train station makes sense
Maybe put a 15:44 thin strip of grass next to the train tracks along the inside of the amusement park?
your daily city vlogs is why is subscribed. I dont care at all about reviews personally. Keep doing what you do!
I think a parking garage would be cool
A mechanic's wheeled seat that's low to the ground may be a life saver for moving in and out of your table openings with the support boards' clearance now
Secondly, you may be able to build and review the new sets based on "the ability to fit into this city" scale lol
I was hoping you'd have a foot bridge over the railway to get into the amusement park
PLEASE please please please consider moving the main line 🙂 I've been commenting since you added the big station but if you move the main line to run Infront of the theme park instead of behind the station can service both lines which would be perfect and awesome!
I love the new station! I would say it is the best Moc I've seen you build. Only issue with my above suggestion is that one might need to relocate which is a real shame. Thanks for reading.
Near the train station, it could be great to have a bike park
Let’s go!
Nice! You added the wait lines. Hopefully its not as long as the real theme parks.
Grab some pool noodles and cut em into strips and affix em to the edges of the 2x4’s/2x6’s
