Move the parking under the airport shuttle and put the football field where the parking currently is? Thats the easy option. Maybe a music festival in the open spot with a stage etc... would also give a place for lots of minifigs to hang out.
Great work on the downtown, Alex, keep it up! Most Airport hotels seem to be grey with a sleek, modern design and lots of glass. Would love to see your take on something like that! I think it could be cool if you included a couple luxury suites and different sized rooms as well :)
Great layout. A suggestion for the manhole: a splash pad in the summer, ice skating in the winter, roller blading for in-between seasons. Make it in two easily removable pieces connected with railings that surround the pad. The railings can come apart at the breaks with 1x2 tiles so that you can lift/push up the two large pieces from underneath. Not sure this makes sense, but it does in my head!! 😃
For the airport hotel idea, I like that a lot. I have a couple ideas: One, at the edge of the tarmac where the airplanes go, maybe on some of those 16x16 plates, a couple of blast fences so that the jetwash from the planes doesn't blow away all the cars. Two: Airport parking just to the right of the Terminal. Three: a big first floor or two of the hotel, with all the amenities (pool, gym, kitchen, dining room...) and then a highrise coming up from it with a smaller footprint. Four: I think a combination of warmer colours would make it stand out against the cool white and blue of the walls and the airport, I'm thinking maybe dark orange, medium nougat, or dark tan, combined with black. Five: a sky bridge over the parking lot, connecting the Terminal to the hotel, because fancy.
It's crazy how much foliage can make a city look alive. I have a bunch of vines and such in the ghetto part of my city and it literally transforms how everything looks.
Big update. Cool to see things moving around. I think the Museum is badly wasted where it is. It could definitely move closer to the square. And so could Diagon Alley. It seems very out of place in the residential area. The grass patches and the paths in the square could be swapped over too. It looks like a pain for minifigures to navigate. The statue might look better being central to the town hall and the rest could shift over in step. It would make more sense for practicality and for aesthetics. I'm excited to see it transform 👍👍
For your moc hotel, you should start with the general design of the boutique hotel but without the art gallery and expand the build to the maximum footprint you can work with in that area. Also, take the colums from the museum for an exterior design feature. Just a few ideas. The city is looking good. I have a grand emporium on the way, which is the last of my top 3 most wanted modulars for my city. I was split between getting it or the Gotham skyline, which would get me to $400 in rewards on the Lego website. The plan is now to wait until the summer for the batman set.
This might be a dumb idea but maybe you could use some 4m tape and put some sideways baseplates in the manhole. Then do a little construction crew as if it’s a sinkhole 😂
Could also be done with snot bricks if you use regular plates instead of baseplates. Or have a brick/plate overlap the snot brick and baseplate. Tape is probably more cost effective tho
i feel like u should put some sort of wall or a fence where the planes are or where the roundabout ends u place the airport so no one can see the planes when the planes to make it more realistic
Looking good. In place of the football field, maybe put in some smaller sports activities: pickleball, basketball, and/or skate park. You could put a couple things there
For the empty space, maybe a bicycle parking space with some plants. dedicated cycle parking is pretty much standard in the netherlands and can get quite large
Move the parking area to the open space and replace the parking lot with a greenspace- park/fountain/garden/pond or boardwalk to the other downtown section.
Have you considered converting the non used train station next to your airport terminal into a bus station and place under the monorail next to the food trucks. Not sure if you already have a bus station but building is not to tall and think would fit.
raise up the monorail track another level after the curve entering the downtown & move the bowling center on the open 2 plates under the track, then come back down after the new station,,
While I love your vids (watch an I like em all - literally) City would be so much better if you mils everything. I know thats a Gargantuant task an very expensive. Just takes it to a Whole new Level - pun intended! Either way im loving the channel!
i know u feel satisfied with the layout but i feel like u should lose the parking, move the hotel and restaurant foward, so the soccer field where they were, the layout would make sense coz of the food trucks. love ur videos btw
So wish LEGO would bring back the Airport Tram Shuttle or release a new one(I bet ya more LEGO fans would want an Airport Tram Shuttle over a new Train Set)! The food truck parking lot is great idea!
I'm not sure people will be thrilled to come to your city and the first thing they see in downtown is a parking lot. I think a park may be good, maybe the Lunar New Year Asian garden type of park that Jason has removed from his city. The parking can go underneath the tracks where the football field was temporary placed. And since you have moved the corner garage back some, maybe you could now create a modular for the airport shuttle to pass through on that spot where the corner garage was.
Hi Alex city's come back together great. Would be cool if you could add more high rise building s. I all way s liked the fact your city has sky scraper high rise building s ..like we see in real city s. Think your city is only city online with sky scraper but I know bevin. Has some big building to. Not sure why. Bricksie not got sky scraper building in his city arear with the massive space he has .for the spot where you add the NFL field you could put a good truck arear. Or few little food stall s .😊
That prrsent Parking lot. Is in my opinion a waste of space.Thwre could be such nice line if sights with Modulars. If you want a Parking lot. Maybe it is perfect for that open spot. Make the parking lot there easy moveable 😊
I am sorry but the airport is a huge waste of space. Especially for the size of city you have. I know it is not the popular view but I have been consistent in telling you this for a long time. And again, you need so much more vegetation. Without it, the city pretty much looks the same as the old one.
Move the parking under the airport shuttle and put the football field where the parking currently is? Thats the easy option. Maybe a music festival in the open spot with a stage etc... would also give a place for lots of minifigs to hang out.
It's looking good, I agree on the airport, do or do not there is no try. 😂 Thanks for the plug.
Alex that’s really looking good!! I love it 🥰 Thank you for the channel plug 😊 I really appreciate it!! 🎉
You're welcome!
Great work on the downtown, Alex, keep it up! Most Airport hotels seem to be grey with a sleek, modern design and lots of glass. Would love to see your take on something like that! I think it could be cool if you included a couple luxury suites and different sized rooms as well :)
Underneath the train line, in that blank spot, would be a great spot for a skate park.
That's a great Idea. I am gonna give that a shot. Thanks!
I agree, was just about to suggest that!
I love the way you stayed with the old roads plates everything looks great thanks
You could put Diagon's alley under the tracks, make it a little more hidden.

Dang, I like it all
Love the re-routing of the monorail and the new parking lot (with appropriately sized cars ;)
It is looking so polished -- good work!
It's crazy how much foliage can make a city look alive. I have a bunch of vines and such in the ghetto part of my city and it literally transforms how everything looks.
One thing for the airport is that I think you should add a jetway for bigger planes.

I wish you good luck with your Lego City in the future Alex 👍😉

Club X in the underground space and entrance on the removable plate?
Grtz, SG from Belgium 🇧🇪
The space under the tracks could be an awesome skate park. High walls, deeps curves, and fenced off around it.
Great idea!
This might be a dumb idea but maybe you could use some 4m tape and put some sideways baseplates in the manhole. Then do a little construction crew as if it’s a sinkhole 😂
Now that's a creative idea for sure

Great Lego city layout 👍
i feel like u should put some sort of wall or a fence where the planes are or where the roundabout ends u place the airport so no one can see the planes when the planes to make it more realistic
I think the bowling alley should be flipped 90 degrees and have the police station and another modular building behind it
You need to move the Landover defender to the road and a custom camping trailer like I did ❤😊
Looking good. In place of the football field, maybe put in some smaller sports activities: pickleball, basketball, and/or skate park. You could put a couple things there
Where you have that odd space that the football field didn’t work, could you do a small farmer’s market or craft fair?
A farmers market is a great option. The farmer on the other side of town would be thrilled
For the empty space, maybe a bicycle parking space with some plants. dedicated cycle parking is pretty much standard in the netherlands and can get quite large
Move the parking area to the open space and replace the parking lot with a greenspace- park/fountain/garden/pond or boardwalk to the other downtown section.
You could combine a hotel with an airport shuttle station in the back and people can enter the hotel and check in from the airport shuttle stop
Just an idea, maybe put in a farmers market in that open space. 😁👍
you could do a full or even a half basketball court where the football field was
Under the tracks fenced basketball court. Lots of greenery on the fence
More of a street ball court. Think New York under the raised train lines
Use the space where the corner garage was and make a parking lot/driveway for it!
Put a ped mall or picnic area in the old football field spot. Maybe a fountain?
Idea: Make that ex-football field area a MOC of a monorail station where the monorail goes through the 2nd floor of it and a glass dome roof.
Just buy one of the old friends hotels and add that into your city in Market into a modular
Where you took out the football field you should do a basketball court or skate park, and it would look right at home
Have you considered converting the non used train station next to your airport terminal into a bus station and place under the monorail next to the food trucks. Not sure if you already have a bus station but building is not to tall and think would fit.
raise up the monorail track another level after the curve entering the downtown & move the bowling center on the open 2 plates under the track, then come back down after the new station,,
Put a play park in the space left. Looking good so far
The "Manhole" ... could have ramps to the lower level, for city vehicles etc.
Train yard staff, as well.
3:00 Basketball court !
While I love your vids (watch an I like em all - literally) City would be so much better if you mils everything. I know thats a Gargantuant task an very expensive. Just takes it to a Whole new Level - pun intended! Either way im loving the channel!
You could use the football field and build a small stadium. It would just be a cool build and wouldn't need to fit within the city.
i know u feel satisfied with the layout but i feel like u should lose the parking, move the hotel and restaurant foward, so the soccer field where they were, the layout would make sense coz of the food trucks. love ur videos btw
Your city is looking amazing Alex! I do like the food truck area. Are you still going to put in the botanical garden?
Under the shuttle track put in a pickup and drop off area for people for the downtown area
I think instead of a football
field you should put a skatepark in that same spot, i think it will fit alot better in the downtown area
I'd add the spring lantern festival (or similar park) and a skate park (16x32) under the airport shuttle by the cinema.
You could put a skate park over where you had the football feild
So wish LEGO would bring back the Airport Tram Shuttle or release a new one(I bet ya more LEGO fans would want an Airport Tram Shuttle over a new Train Set)! The food truck parking lot is great idea!

OMG! i know im leaving so many comments but add a parking lot in the airport coz an airports cannot lack one
if you removed Diagon Alley to change up the front corner of downtown why not put the alley next to the Batcave underneath downtown
Hi Alex city's come back together great. Would be cool if you could add more high rise building s. I all way s liked the fact your city has sky scraper high rise building s ..like we see in real city s. Think your city is only city online with sky scraper but I know bevin.

The football field you should use green studded pieces instead of smooth pieces, and have figs playing football!
Put a play park where you had the sports ground
How about a Basketball Court instead.
Airport hotel combined with aviation museum?
I think your city deserves lined parking lot spaces
I agree, I am going to look at some options on how to do that
Where is the hospital going to end up?😅😊
That prrsent Parking lot. Is in my opinion a waste of space.Thwre could be such nice line if sights with Modulars. If you want a Parking lot. Maybe it is perfect for that open spot. Make the parking lot there easy moveable 😊
City is looking good. However I am not a huge fan of your impression of Jason’s bricks in 5. You make him sound dumber than he is lol

And again, you need so much more vegetation. Without it, the city pretty much looks the same as the old one.
Your city need more flowers and trees it looks boring
