LEGO City Layout & Shelving Update!

In this LEGO room update, we make some changes to the shelves and city! The Hogwarts Express Collectors' Edition is huge... and I needed to find a home for it! After trying a few different things, I came up with a pretty cool solution. In addition to changing some of the shelving, we also open up some mail and update the amusement park layout.

Do what you enjoy! Because its what we enjoy!!!

[@beckybarrett7452]

The Harry Potter display looks wonderful! I recently bought the Hungarian Horntail Dragon. I like seeing all three together. I enjoy all the different ways you build Lego sets, rebrickable models and MOC’s. Keep doing what you enjoy! It’s refreshing hearing you say your first priority is your family. You’re doing a great job.

[@richards2936]

You are crushing it! After my kids were born I was a mess at work for months (and they were 2 years apart not both together!) so the fact that you are not only coherent and enthusiastic, but also still putting out great content despite getting little sleep is amazing. The twins come first as they should. The city looks better and better every day, and there's no rush to finish everything! Thanks for keeping us entertained.

[@KlingonPrincess]

So sweet of the fellow to send sidewalk tiles. It just occurred to me that you could create tree lawns to save tiles. The strips of grass and trees that line streets would look pretty, a little gentrification project

[@philmorton4590]

I'm sure we all wish to have these problems bricksie. Love to see your collection. Very cool

[@brickbro1993]

I think the new proposed changes for the amusement park is great. Makes a lot of sense in my opinion. And don't stress to much about building the LEGO City and your other projects. Your in busy times. Take the time you need for your family. We understand.

[@marcosbuslon5271]

first, congratulations to both you and your wife on the little ones! Had no idea until the instagram story the other day, and we're all so happy for you. And two... wow the new layout is amazing. Especially like the rebrickable set next to townhall, looks fantastic with a ninjago background

[@margaretzee8162]

You are doing GREAT balancing everything - do you what gives you joy with the Lego and enjoy the twins!

[@GavinByrneLand]

It's lovely to watch you do what you enjoy and it's also lovely hearing how the twins take priority. Your channel brings a lot of joy to us viewers and we really appreciate it. Sending best wishes. 🏗🧱

[@tkcupit]

Cool City!!!

[@leoseitz3045]

Everything looks awesome. Minor suggestion for the amusment part. For the back shelf, you could always add farris wheel there with the rock structure you plan to build. It may help with the visiblity to the coaster.

[@lucasio8793]

4:07 if you take out the pins on the bottom of the piano and push out the keys, the keys won't be that uneven.

[@jeanjohnson643]

Some great progress made today. I really enjoy watching your thinking process on organizing your city. I hope your family is doing well. Please let your wife know she's doing a great job. I have 3 kiddos and can only imagine two at once. Wishing you and your family a great day :)

[@SmugCanadian]

If you have a small shelf for above that Harry Potter lego in the white space you could always get those cool lego Harry Potter book sets they made for each house or something if you do decide to drill the holes in the wall.

[@mattfeakes8711]

Hey Jordan, keep your channel exactly as it is, people come for the Lego but stay for your personality. I’m an afol with young kids also and it’s been awesome watching your journey with the twins. Stay cool bro!! 👍🏻

[@mezbricks]

Move the platform a little to the right (so it covers the tender) to make the carriage visible.

[@ArathixFilms]

Also think that instead of a rock wall at the back end of the amusement park by the platform should be a brick wall/fence that blends into the cliff of the platform, with trees and shrubbery helping form that barrier. This is mostly based on my experience of amusement parks, there's always a perimeter fence that usually has trees/bushes in front of it to hide them. Plus it'll be more colourful than your standard rock wall.

[@d1sruptive110]

Hey bricksie, just a thought. Use that green area by the beach for a food cart area/ outdoor market/ food fair-- that blends in with the beach. Love the city and daily videos!!

[@wow45usr]

Don’t stop the news, updates and reviews!

[@tkcupit]

I think the big loop coaster would look better in the corner near the other coaster

[@brandonharristsw7516]

Wow

[@BrickHQ]

You should put the lego bricksie sign on the wall above the parts drawers. I wish I had the budget to order the bowling alley, however I did order the Clockwork Aquarium. Looking forward to seeing updates to the amusement park

[@kernalmustard353]

How about hanging some Harry Potter art to cover the whitespace on the wall behind the hogwarts express

[@Fred026]

I was thinking that!

[@CriticsCupofficial]

Yeah great idea

[@andrewslavin7963]

Very smart

[@diddejidde]

Or a plank for the hog warts express

[@tjmartinez1505]

I was thinking that also but I don’t know if he wants to just have the stair wall as that shelf

[@theimperfectscrapper5313]

Filmed 7 hours ago and already 15k views - that’s impressive! Lots of Lego lovers out there 😉

[@jefferybob123_yt3]

It would be so cool if you could get all the power functions connected together in between the mils plates so that way you press one button they all turn on

[@JohnSmith-kf8mv]

The millennium falcon can be displayed at an angle (seen stands used by others on youtube) which would make it less wide, though much taller.

[@countrabricksbuildcraze8916]

Cool now U added the light house in 😊👍 that pier you could made not as wide so you could put a shop on each side still. .

[@zNxghtmare_7]

I love these LEGO Harry Potter sets🔥🔥

[@masterstefan8323]

The fact that every one who started watching your videos canot stop watchin them.

[@kthanna08]

What if you put one of the haunted houses in the shelf behind the loop coaster? Like a foreboding haunted house on a mountain? It would be right by the coaster, so clearly still in the amusement park and family friendly, but themed like a Disney area.

[@Maximx09]

You should bould a muppet theater in the amusement park

[@lucaburaschiMusic]

Hi Bricksie an idea for your Lego city would be connecting the new Lighthouse set with the old fishing store's jetty and you don't need to change all of the plates in the boat yard what you could do is make it fade out.

[@andygroft4601]

Looks so great! I love your videos. Congrats on the twins! I think you should mount the UCS Millennium Falcon somewhere at an angle on a space on the wall somewhere. It is the best Lego set in my opinion and it is not very visible where it is. Keep up the good work and congrats again on the family.

[@pirate1980]

Wow amazing lego room layout

[@liamshustle]

Wow that harry potter display looks spectacular!

[@jackspikes7042]

Jordan, take the LOTR Tower and add it to your LEGO City in the Camp Ground. Would be perfect in there and get it away from the HP stuff :)

[@Thatnerdyfella]

Bricksie question… On a serious note. Please discuss or talk about the LED lighting that goes with a ton of Lego sets. Have you ever thought about buying those LED lights for all or half of the city buildings to actually make them look alive at night? Seriously though. It would bring the city alive in my opinion but that would also be super cool to see all lit up.

[@thevinylcollector3472]

awesome video jordan the lego city is looking amazing the new mils plates look great

[@brandondoggette7580]

A big advantage of MILS plates is the ability to add terrain detail like rivers and ponds or small hills. Maybe a way to save some 2x2 bricks is to put in a few water features into your amusement park. Thanks for the content. Always enjoy watching.

[@MayoHosko]

If you’re ever feeling stressed about not making enough progress in the city we understand because being a parent of twins is a handful

[@Robbie_Hildebrand]

For your planning, the upcoming LEGO Bowling Alley from the Bricklink Designer Program is Two full 32x32 baseplates, not one and a half. Venetian Houses are also two full baseplates.

[@Bricksie]

Good to know -- thanks!

[@aidanclarkescott5068]

Looking great! My advice is that white space is good! Keeps things from looking too cluttered and gives sets a little breathing room. But if you end up needing more room to display sets I guess there are worse problems to have!

[@jeannine.]

Everything is looking so awesome. You have done a great job! I agree, make the twins your priority. They are your world. We appreciate all your hard work and dedication. You have done great! The Hogwarts Express looks fantastic where it is.

[@lsweewei]

i love your videos so much ❤keep up the work😊

[@craftycristy]

you should put the 3 flying sets on like tiered lifts so the hungrarian horntail is the highest, then fawkes mid height and then hedwig the lowest? love watching the city come together!

[@tvalkyrie]

Looks Great Bricksie!

[@judy3973]

You sure are busy! Love the progress.

[@turboslayer6264]

I have an idea on what you can include in the amusement park. How about you put log flume rides in or maybe a pirate or viking ship that swings many people it that would be cool although it would be hard to build.

[@m2mcbrick444]

Looks great.... I would as you mentioned add floating shelves in that area and get the train up on it front and center!

[@jacobtakas2846]

Maybe get a floating shelf to fill that space above the flying Harry Potter Sets and put the Hogwarts Express on the shelf.

[@bce6920]

I would suggest moving the Disney Train station to the far end of the park. Perhaps backing on the the cliff edge. You could then slide the coaster down and put the loop coaster next to it (both coasters against the wall).

[@Ro_884_]

Amazing video!!!!!

[@tonihall7810]

Who is saying eyesore…. Are they nuts … it’s looking like a work in progress …. Enjoy your kids the time goes way to quickly . Blink and they will be sitting next to you building lego with you . Love from Australia

[@ClicketyBrick]

Loving the updated city layout!

[@winstonlee1814]

Snug BD-1 between the Mando Starfighter and Razorcrest. Love the display area. Agree with using trans-panels as a means to elevate the owl/phoenix/dragon

[@suecj8770]

Brilliant ideas

[@jacobkrug]

huge fan

[@xavierlipps8347]

I added your autographed 2×4 brick to my lego display shelf today :)

[@Bricksie]

That's awesome! 😆

[@galopagos395]

Lego Barn!

[@MomentsOftheMagic]

progress is progress - looking great!

[@tau93]

You could separate the train into 2 sections and display it on adjacent shelves. For example, Engine with Tender, and Passenger Car with 35% of the track on the shelf to the left

[@shelleymattson4243]

Great space for the train!

[@zacdenault6918]

Looks awesome!

[@unbrickable4713]

This is just amazing!! Your collection is so big and cool!!!! I wish i had met you!

[@matejkusnierz6242]

Cant wait to see the finished amusement park :)

[@robertcollins5959]

Put your brixie sign above your parts behind the Hogwarts sets.

[@countrabricksbuildcraze8916]

I think the Gray plates is okay for the mini fig wall .as if you put colour plate you might not cee the mini figs as well I got all mine in 5 level case s with built in LD light s on each level. Thay look cool as

[@joeyost1603]

I would put a shelving unit like you have in the back of your lego city on the part bins with a 1/4 sheet of melamine covering the front. Put the Hogwarts train, Harry/Hermoine, and the gold minifigs in front (train can be "passing" the platform), and the flying creatures raised up on the platform in the back!

[@Bucks128]

Love it I think that you should add a monorail like build going around the city or amusement park

[@kurtisb1158]

You have so much 2x3 brick. You could totally make some more MILS plates!

[@AvengermanThe1]

That looks sooo cool

[@Fred026]

Indeed

[@fathercrim]

To open up some more space you can drop the ewok village into the campground. I think that would look really good with the scale, compared to Pooh's house and the treehouse

[@ChristianKadee]

you should make a walkway of rock leading up to the lighthouse not how it is now with the only acess to it being a boat. Another thing i would not place the friends thing rigt there between a boat yard, the lighthouse, and a beach

[@louismallon700]

Put a shelve above the fly stuff and put the lego Harry Potter books there

[@internationalleo7395]

Keep it up man

[@drucejnr]

I like the changes to the Lighthouse that are going to come but my suggestion would be to try and angle it. Make it more of a headland/separation between the port and beach, to which I really reckon you should swap around (I know you’ve said its a big job) but I really think the transition from zoo > farm > beach would just flow better. Also, please keep the channel as it is. I enjoy the different videos; variety is the spice of life! Hope you and the family are doing well.

[@kr1s78]

Maybe giving the Hogwarts express a shelf of it's own above the rest of your harry potter sets

[@anthonyestevez118]

It's your channel, do what you like! We'll be here to watch!

[@GreyBeardJedi]

Maybe pointing out the obvious...add a Ikea shelf above in the blank white wall space... and add the Train there. 🤔

[@TIBE_]

Use multiple PAB cups for a stand

[@countrabricksbuildcraze8916]

Yes 😊👍 that's it. U nailed it nice spot for it ..I'm about to pull my Diagon ally set outta the tub it's sitting in .as I did oltra builds with most the build but as I moved house. It's taken me long time to try fit it into my city so it will have to go next to my city on desplay to.i going to take pic to put on Instagram and into my next vid ..on city up date. . an I need to power up my hogs worts train again nerly got my train track beam built to hold up my train tracks.

[@jonahkey5269]

You should order some peices or another hogwarts express and expand the train station and and harry potter to the city and make a almost minifigure scale hogwarts moc

[@ryangann799]

Maybe the colour the series was packaged from lego for the mini fig wall

[@averyherbert8802]

Man that shelf room is my dream, I'd love to have that much to display, and that much room to display it. Any tips on making something that nutty myself?

[@alanhoyland5438]

Lots of great content. So much to do in the City but hey that's all part of the fun. How's about a Stranger Things attraction in the amusement park featuring the Byers House mmmmm 👍🏻

[@JohnSmith-kf8mv]

Oh, that the-fighter - prime set for hanging from the ceiling, right !!!!

[@rbleisem]

DB-1 and Wall-E? They would work well together, I think

[@donnalajoie5309]

I ordered The Diner, Clockwork Aquarium and the Lego modular from the Lego group and they keep changing the shipment dates. Keeps saying back ordered. Hopefully they will come soon. Loved the vlog. You are doing a wonderful job on the entire Lego room. Always enjoy all your videos.

[@christrudden5114]

Have you thoight about a Harry Potyer display, there are enough sets to make a big hogwarts connected area.

[@convinced2234]

Hey maybe you could swith the deathstar with the X wing

[@darthlego3664]

Top shelf looks cluttered now. With the white space, how about placing a floating shelf and putting the train on it? Also, why dont you put some planters and trees on the sidewalk/footpath...it would save some tiles and break up the dull gray

[@Operateur]

Don't fill the white space dude, it looks good this way :D

[@TurtleBurger681]

I think platform 9 3/4 should be a little closer to the entrance, maybe swap the UFO ride and the station. Also Disney station should be a little farther away as well (maybe by where the haunted house is), even though it would be farther from Disney Castle, the stations are currently too close to each other. On the topic of the amusement park, you need to plan an area for food stands and probably a stage for entertainers (doesn't have to be big). Then you can work on the layout with pathing and stuff in mind. After that, you can figure out which areas need to be filled out more with detail (decorations and people).

[@danielwalker8961]

This man's collection is something I can only experience in my dreams he's got everything

[@Fred026]

Exactly

[@22damaged]

Can't you build a shelf for the smaller things in the back? That way they're built up a bit. It could just be a small raised shelf like you did in the city by the back walls...only thinner.

[@jacobthaine5939]

Bricksie I want to start on my one LEGO city what would you suggest starting first pick a corner start small in one part and then expand over time and I wish you had the room for a airport in your city that’s what your city is missing

[@ArathixFilms]

I think you should shift your focus of the channel to the city, there are a dozen reviews for every lego set but no ones city is as good as yours! I'd still enjoy the live streams for builds, and videos about placing sets within the city so you could give your unique opinions there, sometimes the review seems like overkill xD but I'm ngl if it's not a city video I sometimes give them a miss, mainly the reviews I do enjoy your vlogs too. Also imma keep reminding you as I know you can't just jump on something straight away to do it and it may be some time before you get to that area, but set back that fake tunnel! Take the black wall and shift it back a half/full baseplate you've got nothing but empty space behind it now! You'll get some awesome depth, you could even have it go round a corner so even if you look through it at eye level you wouldn't see it was a fake tunnel and not a real one!

[@ytbrundle]

Looks great but how do you keep dust from covering everything?

[@swtch73]

Crazy how much that shelf has evolved

[@Fred026]

Ikr

[@franciscoalvesporto9570]

I received the Bowling Alley about a month ago (I live in Portugal 🇵🇹)
