Building a Massive LEGO Bridge... - Lego City Update

[@vmensionv]

I would suggest to restructure the bridge chains to look something like the "Széchenyi Chain Bridge" in Budapest. The pillars already look like it and it would fit the whole city perfectly.

[@dwiqpl]

I also suggest to connect cables to bridge slab, not railing. Railing is secondary construction not main construction. For me as bridge engineer is just not correct and looks ugly. Also every bridge has bridge head, but that is detail.

[@erictorres9906]

i wish you could like a comment more than once

[@tamaslukacs986]

im from hungary and i thought about that bridge 2

[@erictorres9906]

link a pick for Brickcrsfts?@perseus8752

[@NikkOcello17]

​@@dwiqpli think for the bridge head he should have kept the pillars instead of the rock face Or integrate them in it

[@kyleweiss3793]

Bridge looks great! Often times in cities skateboarders build ramps and obstacles under them and the city leaves it alone because it’s already a noisy area. A few skaters under there would really add some life:)

[@NcMuggets]

I was thinking the exact same thing! It’d fit well with the basket ball court and the overall vibe of that area. Some graffiti and graffiti artists would be cool, too!

[@Eggtsy]

That's what I was thinking of instead of having the rock wall. Using the space just behind where the rock wall is, build a small skate park and light it up with some LEDs. Visibility might be a slight issue depending on columns, but it would really suit the feel of a grungy but lively area

[@nilsvids]

The cables should be straight. If you can't have them straight, you could use one big cable (the longest, wouldn't have to be straight in that case) and have smaller vertical cables attached to this main cable

[@paulvansommeren]

Yeah, this way looks really odd, as if theres no tension in the cables.

[@bluebananalab786]

I agree, that would look more true to the Brooklyn bridge. Adding 1 more length of fence (cable anchor point) would make it so that the longest bridge cable touches down on land instead of the very edge of the cliff. It could have a fancy/bulkier anchor endpoint holding one larger cable with smaller vertical ones coming down from it.

[@jugatsumikka]

That's the issue I got while looking the video on your german channel: you took clearly inspiration from suspended bridges like the Brooklyn bridge, but you did a cable design for a cable-stayed bridge like many modern european bridge, yet you kept the loose arched look of the main cable of suspended bridge for the tensed cables of a cable-stayed bridge. Choose your lane, for god sake

[@michellewhitley8668]

As a suggestion, I think you should put the other two things back under the bridge at the end those are amazing such an inspiration

[@bbwait2718]

If he could make the bridge longer it would be cool too :)

[@OllieTattersall]

I have been following your channel for a couple of years and just want to say a big thank you for letting us all come on this journey with you. It has been such an immersive experience, watching your city (and wild west) grow and is genuinely heart warming to see and hear your passion in what you do. I'm not the only one who really looks forward to your updates.

[@XArsonalXWTF]

I'm not going to lie every time I see a new video I get excited it gets me thinking on busting out my old Legos

think it would be cool for the buildings to continue under the bridge, maybe a shady store or something hehe

[@Maxxxx1220]

YESSS lol

[@miav7817]

Idea for the transition between the upper and lower platforms behind the buildings is having a little back door for the houses that leads out onto that top level

[@MSkov89]

You should continue the abandoned/slum feel from the factory under the bridge. Imagine homeless people warming their hands from fires in a barrel under the bridge.

[@tetraxis3011]

YES.

[@falloutworldrecord]

Hell yes, would fit in with the NY aesthetic

[@olliexx]

Definitely will also be a nice transition into the NY section, like the reply above says.

[@markolysynchuk5264]

No. I don't think this would fit into a modern European city. Even some communist buildings would've looked better than this.

[@automation7295]

@@markolysynchuk5264 Even if you don't think it would fit into a modern European city, abandoned buildings and homeless people is still possible.

[@matthewmccalister5594]

The wild west looks AMAZING with the lights!! WOW I love how the sky blue looks like daytime in the daylight and it blends into a really convincing desert night sky with the new lighting features! It's amazing to see that footage of the city!! So cool to think that I've been watching you create this place 1 brick at a time and now there is a WHOLE FREAKIN CITY with details... Thank you for sharing the process!

[@YOSHUAA.]

I think mabye you can make a pedestrian to the other side as there are no sidewalks. Love you vids!❤️

[@lucacorno5582]

I thought it as well. There is no possibility for pedestrian to cross the bridge. And take pictures and selfies from the bridge as well!

[@Judith_Remkes]

Yes! And maybe a zebra crossing for people coming from the town centre wanting to go down the stairs.

[@joemungus6063]

Could do that and then have stairs down to a tram stop

[@nickryan3417]

Same thought here. While it's transitioning to a USAian style city, the design is still European and therefore people are taken into account. No places for the people to walk is very USA.

[@TheBirdThat]

Keep building, love looking at the city

[@luedanger561]

Awesome build. That bridge just needs one thing. A pedestrian walkway. Your city is coming along nicely

[@danielbuggie591]

Agreed. It won't make a huge difference right now but once decorated with cars and people it'll make a huge impact.

[@GlobinHD]

Great video as always! I think it would be cool to use that small gap behind the pizzeria to add a tomato garden for the owner.

[@SmolSir]

I would consider adding some activity to the roofs of bottom line houses. You could easily access them from the higher part of the city and it's such a great spot for a restaurant, viewing platform, bar, even a disco and so, so many more things!

[@Califoreigners]

I originally found your channel for my kids to watch, but now I watch them without the kids. haha. Love the passion you have for building! These updates are so great.

[@lucacorno5582]

Wild West area by night is amazing!! Can’t wait to see the rest of the Lego city full of light in the night time!

[@DYF_14]

You should add graffiti into the city maybe in alleyways and under bridges i think it would give the city a more city feeling! Great video!

[@nickryan3417]

A nice way to add a few more in-jokes and possibly sponsors too (as long as it's not overdone)

[@danielbodon14]

nice idea

[@jayknox8072]

For the sound effects it would be amazing to have little buttons accessible by the patrons of your museum exhibition to activate them, so people can have a little interactivity with the things they're seeing! Awesome work as always!

[@jayzo]

You've built a cable-stayed bridge, those steel cables would be under tension so would need to be straight rather than curved. I do love the design however

[@tkonis]

It would be really cool to get a full tour of the moc

Maybe add an airport somewhere? it would make sense because most of big cities have airports, just remember to not put to close to the city, because usually airports are a bit away from the city because they make so much noise.

[@shshayan7920]

Wonderful Lego City

[@Legokee]

It would be cool to see rock climbing in the urban or rural area. It a rapidly growing sport and people do it outside on real boulders or “urban” which it like on buildings or bridges!

[@0odles0fBrutals]

I'm never sure how much new stuff is going to be added every update, and I'm always impressed by the scale of stuff you do from one video to the next! The Wild West with the lighting looks absolutely incredible!

[@drsausages_]

have a look at the Forth Road bridge. it's kind of reminiscent of that in a way

[@seigemachine]

We need RCE for a Bridge Review!

[@Dars2097]

I am not quite sure how the old Lego tracks that you are using work, but if there was a way to siphon power from it to power an LED for your tram, that would make it look amazing when it goes underneath the bridge, or when you set your city to look like night time. There is also the option of adding a battery in the tram, but I am not sure how that would look for you.

[@KingAlex-dw6dv]

Also love the new bridge

[@Youuber]

The lighting you guys set up for the Wild West moc is absolutely stunning. Elite craftsmanship

[@Taangoo24]

you'll need to add a barricade or banister type thing at the top of the rockface you just added, to stop folk falling off!

[@japkylcz748]

I want to see the finished build in real life so much its my dream

[@erkkijokinen6568]

It‘s always a Good day when you release a new video! A fleamarket would fit good on the place on the Hill

[@MagicL12345]

Great work !

[@FSingels]

Suggestion: In the wild west MOC, add a sound effect for a clock tower/church bell. When it tolls the shootout begins.

[@mufaddala.sadriwala5146]

Cool I 💕 your content hope you soon make the airport video and give another travelling video across your city. Keep it up 💪

[@aliciaknust5773]

When you make your New York style area, you need to add those street characters that you see in NYC. Also, under the bridge could be a place to continue the mafia story with some shady trading going on down there.

[@Thebaldpig]

I’m always so exited the moment you post Keep up your work

[@stuff7720]

On a tension bridge there should be tension on the cables, so maybe try to make them more straight instead of having the slope.

[@randomdoodels6216]

Really cool to see! The light's in the wild west are really starting to give life to the world! One thing that I did notice however is that all lights turn on simultaneously. It feels very weird and artificial. I think that it would be much more life-like if you added a random offset to when the lights turns on.

[@szymonbravo7213]

You should also add the tram overhead lines at some point. Maybe it’s not the most necessary and obvious missing detail, but when you actually notice it, the tram simply doesn’t make sense. Why does it have the panthograph if there are no overhead lines and how does it run then? But other than that, this moc is phenomenal and your attention to detali is simply astounding, keep it up man!

[@RossoV2]

Beautiful! The texture of the bridge pillars are really well done.

[@billynomates920]

i thought so too! i was kind of disappointed he removed four of them but then i remembered whatever he does, it always looks amazing. 😃

[@Mazarine-Msm]

I agree 😄 i love the vines and the mossy look an amazing skill!

[@Tomarzig]

7:47 On the left side of the city, I would like to have a natural park full of trees and flowers. and would like to have a big waterfall.

[@DingerDuck]

This man is a genius! You know you could potentially make lego instruction packets for some of your builds, you could sell them and it would be awesome to try and build some of your ideas and builds

[@revqn11]

You should add a rock climber climbing up the rock face or maybe a skatepark by the basketball court or under the bridge.

[@Dxby_]

You should add some graffiti under the brige. Also when you add the basketball court you can make it seem like the besket ball broke te window of the old factory.

[@yeahjustlikethat]

These videos remind me of the golden days of "good" TV content. Worry free, stimulating, and interesting. This is great content thank you for putting those awesome videos together!

[@LKBRICKS1993]

[@zanesnyder9611]

I know you're planning on making the next city New York based, but could I argue San Francisco? The hills, beach, Santa monica, staggering heights and angled houses aren't as iconic as new york, but it gives more to look at. Houses at 45° angles, twisty road, golden gate Bridge, there's so much inspiration

[@greenix1]

can you make a tutorial on how to build trees? yours look so good

[@ItsKingFlorian]

That certainly is a massive bridge

[@KingAlex-dw6dv]

Omg new updateeee ❤❤❤

[@kingofredlions8729]

Always so excited to watch these videos, I don't know if you look at these comments for recommendations but I think more industrial facilities near the warehouse would make more sense than a basketball court. You can really grime it up, have it be the rundown beaten up section of the city. You could also add an industrial shipping port instead of just the recreational one

[@EthanCole2009]

Make sure to include no greenery, no public transportation, and lots of parking in the New York section.

[@adiseagledostuff]

[@MattyPetrites]

Absolutely love how the bridge brings that whole section together visually!! For the upper gap, maybe a small community garden for the houses/apartments nearby?

[@filmbynatelachmann8510]

I think you should swap out the rock structure underneath the bridge for some small detailed streetfood shops, like a doner kebab shop or a currywurst stand! Last time I was in Germany I noticed lots of these shops under bridges at the entrance of train stations or tube lines or something like a slum vibe, i saw a couple comments suggesting this as well, love ur vids my g!

[@atticbricks]

mega bridge!!!!!! congratulations!!! I also built one in my videos

[@stevendevilliers]

I think the pillars were way better than the wires. BUT i think only 4 are needed so none where the rock face is.

[@RakselGT]

Great Video👌but I think that you should add a flag to the top of the lighthouse🫑

[@thengel24235]

Looks incredible as usual! One nitpick about the bridge that I can't unsee - the pillars on the road of the bridge should not be offset - they should be directly on top of the pillars underneath for structural integrity... it just looks off to me!

Wow, I love the amount of detail that the bridge has, especailly the small cracks on the road.

[@corphish129]

The bridge looks amazing. I love the design of the stone pillars and ivy is great. I do think the black cables might be a biiit to much contrast. I personally would be tempted to try dark bluish gray and see how it looks, while leaving the railing black.

[@lazy_bluejaysfan2476]

Looks great! I would highly suggest using the rope piece from lego to make overhead wire for the tram. Otherwise, it doesn't make a ton of sense to have that pantograph on top of the tram

[@neilwoodbridge8232]

[@StudWalker]

If you are building a basketball court you should build a mesh fence around it - preferably a bright colour like red or blue - and put white football (soccer) goals at the end as well as hoops. In England these types of courts are common in city areas and it allows you to pose minifigures in a basketball game or football match!

[@LukasHannover1988]

Absolutely incredible. Once this city is complete, I'm making my way over to Germany to see it in person.

[@adonoghuea02]

Bit of an idea for the back of the houses, a place where we used to holiday a lot as children is built on very steep hills, so steep infact, you can very often go in the front door at one level and come out another front door one, two, or three stories higher up. You could have the tops of the lower houses be entrances for them. Would also make a lot of sense within the world you've built.

[@GalaxyStuds1]

Can you add a forest with a deforestation zone I think it will be interesting and gives sense to the train with wood

[@LavenderTheFemboy]

The way the bridge is build reminds me of the Sydney Harbour bridge, so I absolutely loved seeing it, as it reminded me of home! Also, seeing the damage to the road gave me an idea. Some segments of road are older than newer ones, and the older ones tend to be grey with black wavy lines filling in the cracks. Maybe you could add a road like that somewhere?

[@michellewhitley8668]
