Building 15 Roads for the LEGO City

[@Peterecgfxdg-]

What an enourmous amount of road for such a small piece of land. You can make so much more room for buildings if you put only one road in that cirkels around the main buildings.

[@TipperProject]

Yeah one road out the tunnel then one that goes across from the gas station to the park. Don't need all the roads to circle a dead end / turn around would add some nice variation.

[@Bricksie]

For visibility reasons, I like having roads/canals/walkways between my modular building.

[@azure1259]

One benefit of roads is much more space for displaying vehicles and mini figures along the pavements/sidewalks. Can also fit mini booth type buildings like newspaper stands, etc.

[@countrabricksbuildcraze8916]

Yeah road s an train tracks do take up space .for adding more building s. But got to have road s .around building s .most city s have street s around most building. Even if only one way street .or .in some parts just Allie an no road but car s can still drive thru .😊 Only if we only had flying car s .or like Jetson s cars in rubber tunnel s above ground then wouldent need roads 😊 an that would make so much more space for buildings true ..for me with fact. Train tracks take up space to. Most my train tracks are risen .only my train yard an train tunnel at ground level. So under my train tracks. More space for little store s an bus stops car parking an other thing s .but if all my tracks was at ground level. I would have way more less space.

Before you start second guessing the man, you might want to learn to spell!

[@youssefmontassar106]

The best moment in the day is the bricksie video moment!

[@johnvocatura]

How about using all of your molded trees to fill up the unused temporary green base-plates? It will look like undeveloped forest.

[@BGcc1]

Good to see you're making progress! Imo it would make more sense to have the buildings backed up against the train track instead of the road next to the train tracks. As said by others: a lot of road for very few destinations (buildings).

[@Bricksie]

I've tried that with my layouts before. Personally, I'm not a fan of looking at the backs of buildings

[@BGcc1]

@ I understand, that makes sense. I do think that once you’ve made more progress you can make some pretty immersive shots from the ‘holes’ in the layout and you would be looking at the backs of the houses then. But hey, it’s lego, everything can be changed. Good job on your progress so far!

[@Tired-Canadian]

I can’t wait until Bricksie builds country roads, to take us home, to the place we belong! 👍

[@xyonisart1499]

Every video you upload now, I'm going to cherish every moment that train station is on screen until you store it away, one of your best builds!

[@braithlovett6044]

I was thinking about the angled roads a few weeks ago especially downtown. A lot of Lego cities are so square. Something like the Flatiron building in NYC would be awesome. Also need a farm and airport too. A power plant with steam coming out of the stack would be really cool as well. Great work as always!!

[@GuanoLad]

One of the strengths of a modular city is that everything can mix and match and move around with relative ease. But one of the weaknesses is that they can't be set at different heights, or integrate landscape organically, or deal with roads and connections at odd angles. I can sense the tension between big creative ideas and ease of assembly.

[@mitchauth]

I love and envy so much that Mrs. Bricksie helps you out. Y'all are adorable.

[@supernovasky]

For the spot you’re considering angling the road to the amusement park… I think would make an awesome little parking lot. Just have the road go straight into a parking lot. Make a mini entrance booth to pay for parking and fill 4-5 parking spots with Easter egg cars with a walking path into your park entrance!!!

[@mikeymansome]

Cant wait to see the expanded downtown! Such a great decision for the suburbs

[@davidplaysgames1057]

Always love watching a new bricks video! Hope you and Josee are doing well ❤

[@warrennewman5325]

roads both did awesome job there

[@redredly]

Maybe see an elevated tram in the city sometime? I know those track pieces are tough to track down and expensive, but you have a printer Just thinking out loud

[@cloudagent3099]

Another great video. Must be so satisfying that yourself and Mrs Bricksie can keep chipping away at the city.

[@tylergaenzler708]

Looking good man! I'd love to see you build something like a mini-golf course in part of the area near the amusement park.

[@hjalmarravandoni-my7iq]

How about moving kwik-e-mart to the right, beside the graveyard or on the other side of the road facing the curve? Would make a more cohesive block fore future moduals!

[@klemmi112]

the road looks great

[@cas3157]

Thanks for the great update as always.

[@SomethingJapanese]

Fantastic stuff! Looks great!

[@Endless_collectibles]

Love your vids man

[@Southeastbricks1986-xn9yd]

Have you thought about where your brick cross station will go? The progress just this week has been very good what a difference it’s making having you both there. Let’s face it there are so many Modular’s on the horizon that space would be filled in no time - maybe you could do some temporary green space or a construction display with diggers and other vehicles and workmen that remains in place until more Modular’s release.

[@ThecrackedBrick93]

Roads are looking good - what about having buildings facing the tracks and have a walkway there by the railway instead of grass of course only where space allows

[@Angrist17]

I love the progress. Here's a planning / philosophical question for you Jordan. How are you conceptualizing the access holes? Specifically, what's in the "empty space"? I know you didn't want to do pop-out panels (that'd be a nightmare), but in your imagination, what exists there? I ask that because you *could* run a road right off the edge and through that virtual space, which would allow you to get a few more modulars in that space where the current road leading up to the park entrance is. Rotate that 90 0 degrees and come left to right (viewer from the stairs) out of the standing whole toward the edge.

[@MrJbeaste]

As always, thanks for sharing these videos. Can you do a tutorial of the 4 way road plates?

[@BillEves-v4s]

Hi. Watching your channel for a while, love your city. Suggestion. I think you should leave the train station in front of park for people coming to park for people who don't drive. And a parking lot where the haunted mansion is to the park. Just on that side of that open area .that way your road could stop at the road baseplate to transition to parking lot.which you could also connect with the train station.

[@origamibrick8894]

Bricksie will you build in the future traintrack ramp to the subway ? Or something more under table like parking ? Amousment park needs one..

[@GodTierComments]

Just put the quik-e-mart in your display cabinets and build a true lego city downtown

[@kellymartin3223]

At Christmas add a Christmas tree in front of town hall

[@MSAKES]

Maybe it would be nice to have a ninjago themed car tunnel, an open dragon mouth coming out of the mountain 🐲

[@apexracing9479]

I seen a thing on instagram about the Lego replay Thanks for giving us more info about it,def will be donating!

[@AJB2K3]

There seams to be a lot of hate for the new road plates but I like them.

[@fentonisoperano8168]

Swap the ninjago placement and kwikemart for the castle and theme park

[@ImTheHeyGuy]

👋 hey 👋 😊

[@ChantalDutrisac]

Hello we love to start our day with youre video a good coffee and what's you make on the city . We are new retired and Lego are one of the hobby we have so continu to inspire us

[@dannigjik]

How do you make the 4-way intersection roads?

[@stevenholtz1760]

The theme park might need a lot of parking

[@dpin6072]

This area looks ok, but not that exciting. Need to spice it up a bit. Maybe a overhead sky tram like Disney from amusement park to the train station

[@Peterlevahn]

The yellow piece is an old space windshield piece fyi

[@rosemorrison7075]

Hi Bricksie. Fantastic to watch you and Jose working hard at road building. You work so well as a team! I have a question for you... You have a Kwik Mart and a petrol station near the roads. While it could be argued that both are necessary in the greater city, I was wondering if both are not also suitable for the residential area? Somehow they are part and parcel of the neighbourhood scene. I am not questioning your planned placings just offering a suggestion.

[@juliusjuron2413]

Aren’t they just Light grey and Dark Grey? Just curious. Where the “blueish “ is?

[@Bricksie]

Bricklink vs LEGO color names DBG=DSG LBG=MSG

[@peterkangas3127]

Where are the fire hydrants???????????????????????

[@galcticbobvr]

Please respond are those lego city roads as thick as a marvel modular and what is the set number

[@Bricksie]

They're 2 places and a tile thick. 60304

[@galcticbobvr]

@@Bricksie thx 😊

[@Angrist17]

It pains me to see you donate that train base instead of building a MOC with it. But that is a really cool program.

[@fisgrisen1585]

Is there a hospital with helikopter plattform?

[@matt_uw]

Hot streak: 🔥🔥🔥

[@leemiracle]

on the side note, where did you get your mickey mouse hoody?

[@Bricksie]

H&M

[@stephenphillips6456]

This looks ugly seeing just seeing empty table, I need to cover it with base plates. This looks ugly just seeing empty base plates, I need to add roads This looks ugly just seeing empty roads and base plates, I need to add some buildings or landscaping. Etc., etc, etc, Honestly, it is all looking good.

[@somethingnewhere]

Have you ever thought of hosting paid tours of your city ? In person ?
