LEGO City Update! Placing Bowling Alley & Moving Modular Buildings! LEGO City Update!

Today we place the new Retro Bowling Alley modular building in the LEGO city. Of course, with that comes a complete overhaul of the modular layout, and I end up moving all of the modular buildings. I think it looks a lot better now! All of the open space has been consolidated so now I have more room for the Venetian Houses!

I still like that mini-modular buildings on the side of the beach 🫠

[@carlsonrobb]

I think it’s better to one big empty “block” than multiple empty small places. Also the bowling alley seems like it would be next to a residential area as opposed to a downtown area

[@cyberi4a]

Now don't get mad, but when you come down the stairs and make the turn, the first thing you see is the biggest eye sore in my opinion. That being the boats/dock area. It's so blah compared to the rest of the city. It doesn't grab your attention and draw you in. The bright and colorful, full of action amusement park would have looked better there and the docks/beach area down at the other end by where you work. Just a thought. 🙂

[@aezartist3330]

I love where the bowling alley is. It looks great by the diner

[@DaveMani]

Well that's a good looking city man!

[@pirate1980]

Wow lego city is looking fresh

[@lkibbler]

Overall I love your current layout. I think you are fine with your current placement of both the old fishing shop and the lighthouse. In my opinion the bowling alley looks fantastic both where it is and as it is. Every bowling alley I’ve ever seen is a large flat single story building like this set. If you want your city to look more realistic then you need a mix of one, two, and three story buildings. They shouldn’t be height matched.

[@agastyasharma2612]

I agree

[@samuelives20]

This layout is pretty epic, I like the changes. I've only got one suggestion... Maybe make your train station a metro station (The underground/subway), we don't have to see the subway, but the platform is a bit too short unless you run single train units. I love Lego but also model railways, so I have both thinking caps on. The city is awesome, I enjoy your videos.

[@goatmode7317]

You could put a park right behind the old fishing store. It would make it less awkward then having modulates right there, and it gives some more color right there. All my beaches have parks somewhere off to the side, so maybe you could put the park with a walkway to the beach

[@22damaged]

I feel that older white and red roof house is very close to the rail tracks going into the back wall...I mean, it's right there! I would be a very testy homeowner!!!

[@simmerWill]

Bricksie you should leave the mini-modulars along the beach where they are, and add in an actual wooden boardwalk in front of them instead of the dark grey tiles. They'll look "beachier" and will probably make you feel better about including them in there. Also - the Parisian Restaurant looks weird beside the beach... I think it would make more sense if it was on a main city centre road instead. The Bowling Alley location looks great in its new location... it makes the most sense to be a double corner building, and beside the DIner makes sense. Once you "grow" it to a second storey, it'll look good. Also the Boutique Hotel should go on the beach. I suggest where the Parisian Restaurant is... it's got palm trees, it looks "beachy" with its colour scheme, and you could see wanting to stay by the beach with an Ocean View instead of beside the garage.

[@theyeetingstudiotys3378]

I love the lego city think how epic t would be with stop motion in that city that would be magic!

[@mccollett15]

I think you should build a waterpark!🌊

[@CriticsCupofficial]

Much stronger layout love the bowling alley placement

[@anthonyestevez118]

The updates look fantastic! The Bowling Alley is perfect! The Fish Shack and Lighthouse are just fine. It is possible to over think it. Nothing is ever perfect.

[@MomentsOftheMagic]

nice city update - great job!!

[@lissettesarria7568]

Yes I agree with you

[@reyobnehpets]

You could Swap the places of the old fishing store and the light house then put a tan baseplate behind the light house and create a path down the beach to the light house going up the rocks. This might be a better way to blend the light house in since it really should be much further away from shore.. 🤔

[@arnaldorivera291]

Love the layout! The fish store is find whete is at the space is perfect

[@judy3973]

You know, the narrow sidewalk could be considered an alley that is many times found between buildings near the beach and waterfronts. Kind of a cozy feeling when walking around a resort area. 😊

[@EMR-DESIGN]

I like the changes you made to the city and yes the bowling alley is good where it is now. I would not change the position of the light house or the old fishing shop. They look fine where they are now and the building behind it is tall enough to be seen even though the bottom part of it might have a smaller street in front of it. It is still visible enough because of its height. So good work!!! :)

[@AfoLUk]

My favourite part of the city is the beach. I think the old fishing store and the lighthouse look fine where they are. But I think I would scrap the zoo. And maybe have a bigger camp ground on a raised elevation with a path coming down to the beach. Also why don't you add a monorail that would look really cool. Keep up with good work I look forward to watching yr videos on a daily basis.

[@krs12]

put it on pop culture street and the low roof would make a great fight scene location

[@ryanschram7266]

Move the old fishing store to the other end, I think that’s a surf shop? With the dock facing long way running parallel to edge of the table. Then place the surf shop where the fishing store used to be.

[@donnalajoie5309]

Really like the changes you made in the city. Love all your videos.

[@lissettesarria7568]

It looks so so so good

[@stopmotiongifs433]

Maybe you can let spiderman and venom be bowling together,beacuse it's close to pop culture street.

[@rickma6363]

That giant white space on Pop Culture street, looks like a giant skating rink in the middle of the city.

[@BrickHQ]

The placements look better

[@SusanGaskin]

It looks great. I'm looking forward to seeing the Venetian build in your city.

[@Malachi-Budke]

Thank you Jordan so much. The things you do are so incredible. Please, for no reason whatsoever, stop doing what you love to do!!!! Have a great day

[@confriepanda1959]

Put the dinner and garage there and the bowling on the spot of the garage! then the bowling good to see!

[@confriepanda1959]

The new street with the museum looks sick, make an gate build towards the beach!

[@tingbase84]

Some Timelapse in this video would of been really good for us to see you relocating everything

[@timelycheese3525]

Good stuff as always. Love having my morning coffee and seeing what updates you have. Still holding out for the medieval scene. I am trying to work on one myself but having hard time finding inspiration. I made an L shaped village around my desk, lion knight castle on shelf one and then a shelf with a couple forestmen hideouts - OG build and a few rebrickables and I am having difficulty designing that area. I used your campground for some inspiration at least!

[@TurtleBurger681]

Firstly, it already sounds like you've talked yourself out of moving the fisherman's house so I don't have to, but that brings up something I've always wanted to see. I hope one day there will be a game where you can easily import custom models into a lego city and walk around it at minifig scale. This way creators like you can create virtual cities for viewers to walk around in. Obviously that would take a lot of time but we'll cross that bridge when the game gets made (I've been begging for it for about a decade and still nothing).

[@salihamulalic9241]

Love the video👍 Make a bus station and get bus's for the city please🙏👍👍

[@brickbro1993]

So much space in the city! As well as many improvements! I love the placement of the bowling alley. It's nice and center in the middle of the action. The relocation of certain modular buildings makes a lot of sense and looks more realistic. Very productive city update! Have a good day my friend.

[@commandersleepy7896]

I love the bowling alley set:)

[@bricksoverload2262]

I think behind the boat shack you should do a few taller office buildings to increase the appearance for the docks ❤

[@johnturner2652]

Really like what you are doing and now understand the modular build, now here’s an idea 😃 in every town city there is a derelict house the kids call haunted, maybe one of them somewhere, just a thought, love the your content 😄👌

[@iamfallin4ux3]

There's no doubt that this puts most people's city layouts to shame.

[@Freelyyy]

You should add some parking lots to the lego city to make it a bit more realistic. Not big parking lots, they can also help to fill some open spaces.

[@brandonharristsw7516]

Wow

[@lissettesarria7568]

It looks so good

[@dennisunited]

Keep some space for future houses or you will end up in your dreamlegofarm!! Cant wait for that actually!!

[@sjorstravels6434]

He Jordan, Your city looks amazing. I do believe that your building in such a fast pace that you keep running out of space. Put the Ninjago theme underneath the tables. Than you can expand the harbor and industrial part.

[@thevinylcollector3472]

awesome video jordan the new changes look amazing in the lego city great job

[@christrudden5114]

Some beaches have sidewalk with like grass and dunes next to it. That is an idea to try in that old fishing shack path area

[@euanglenn5902]

Since you mentioned the height of the bowling alley being what it is, there is a 1719 piece additional floor moc on rebrickable by brick artisan

[@deadbytwenty7752]

Corner Garage in that new spot is sick!

[@sisususi5605]

Buy the new express train

[@ScotchAddict35]

You need to put a go pro on some wheels and cruise around your city from a minifig perspective!

[@natedogg3507]

Love watching your videos, So inspiring and creative ideas

[@swcollector1340]

Excellent placement of the bowling alley.

[@felipechan]

wow it's actually this big. OK I need to replan my room.

[@Ethan-qi5bq]

This Chanel is amazing

[@Jacpuddin]

Looks really good!!!

[@aldo530]

Loving these updates. Keep going 🙌

[@ilannghost6306]

you can make 2 sides for a broken down building and make a parc in the same base plate I see that a lot in Belgium

[@ilannghost6306]

What social platform?

[@shellychugh5016]

Amazing!

[@jacobdragon631]

Do you plan on adding a parking garage? Looks strange seeing shops with no places to park.

[@CorsairProd]

weird but it think the fishing store would make more sense in the park next to the river after all people fish more often in lakes than sea. that would free the beach front

[@luc4856]

I think the fishing store is fine the way it is. But I would be a big fan of moving the lighthouse in by half a plate. Good work as always :)

[@nicoleelso324]

loved the vid keep it up

[@lcotner5068]

I wish you would show interiors when you move around buildings.

[@edoumig2646]

Nice update tx

[@bricklover2258]

Yesterday I moved my hospital moc next to my fire station moc since my hospital is 2 baseplates and in its old spot I couldn't reach it and I still need to do the interior. It also opened up 4 spots in my downtown area for ofical modulars which are what I like in my downtown area.

[@ryanmcnamara8742]

Bricksie you should move the boutique hotel to the plate behind the fishing store. You'd get a great view of the angle as you walk towards it and it would look great by the beach area

[@alexsw7077]

Having the corner garage diner n bowling alley together would make a nice vintages part But having corner n pub together also looks very nice since they the same parts Ehiter way looks awesome

[@ChilleBruh]

Woohoo! New Bricksie content and a stack of Lego in front of me… today is a great day!!

[@Jack-zg2ec]

😎 cool 😎

[@vincekoren7067]

I think you should place all the lighter coloured apartments by the beach and make them look life a little italian zone

[@adolfocadena5203]

Make that bowling alley into a mushroom building

[@pykepyke_]

I like the old fishing store where it is. I think it's appropriate to have tighter spacing and a slightly narrower walkway in what should be an "older" part of town if it were a real city.

[@joeyamedio7397]

Hey bricksi I’m from Florida and it was my birthday on October 3rd and I live in the area that was killed from hurricane Ian thanks for lighting up my bday 😁

[@MayoHosko]

The bowling alley belongs on pop culture street

[@judy3973]

Looks good Jordan!

[@annasworldofbricks]

Looks great Bricksie 👍

[@krzysztofkubit2125]

estimate man that you bulit something like that from lego 😀 this cool

[@zNxghtmare_7]

Good idea to put somewhere for the LEGO city and getting some ideas to change🔥

[@shaneoliva7342]

Your Lego City looks awesome. I really like the layout

[@ChajMotionProduction]

Cool

[@ejhproductions1]

I think the bowling alley would look really good along pop culture street next to the corner garage

[@williamsmith4414]

A fascinating design

[@SR7N3SI]

Have you considered placing a camera on the ceiling located at the center of your city? A Birds Eye view?

[@cozy.9803]

I think the bowling alley is looking great

[@marshallbwesley3232]

You should shift over the bricksie land entrance and have the Disney castle directly in line with it so you can made your own Main Street.

[@hypnotixyt]

I would recommend moving the pet shop or the post office away from each other. The townhouses being next to each other makes sense, but you generally don't see identical commercial buildings next to each other.

[@mattvalentine]

In my city/college town, living right off campus, all of the apartments literally look exactly the same and they all have different businesses on the first floor. Bars, multiple restaurants, CVS, 7Eleven, dentist, post office, barbershop/salon, bank, bookstore, Starbucks.

[@trentstewart5910]

You should make a mini golf course and put it in your city. It would look really good.

[@sten6637]

cool

[@joeyost1603]

Should put King Pin minifig on top of the bowling alley. Get it? King PIN? Also - super excited to see your update of the Daily Bugle. I know that's a project that is not a priority - but it would be awesome. By the way - when you do a MOC could you do a "How to" video on the best way to order parts? I want to do the Dunder Mifflin one, but don't know the best way to do it!

[@SkinnerNoah]

Idk if you have one already, but it would be neat to add a city hall or courthouse MOC. A lot of them down here in the US have domed roofs that resemble the Capitol building

[@itzcrazydan]

Hours spent crawling between city sections and reaching over tall builds whilst holding heavy modulars... I'm exhausted just thinking about it!

[@Bricksie]

Had my knee pads on 💯. Hit the hot tub after 💯. Lol

[@HappyRosetoyLickerSlurp123]

You should move the bookshop near the pet shop it might look good 😁

[@TheGamingEevee8]

Looking good pity I couldn't stay up to watch your stream for longer due to my videos, but hope one day you do it earlier

[@countrabricksbuildcraze8916]

That's a deadly spot to put the Lego shop next to the school lol 😆 if we whent to that school U know where we would be on brake times an arfter school. At the Lego shop ..😊👌

[@ItzWolfpack]

Hi Bricksie I think you should leave a open space for a Central Park like in New York area by the mountains and that would help with space and I know you have the campground but I think it would be pretty cool?

[@rodallford2028]

The bowling alley would look best near the beach especially when you add an arcade to the top as every beach has an arcade and bowling alley near it

[@ThecrackedBrick93]

Looks good now - btw how do you keep the dust under control ?

[@john.b4170]

have you considered making your Christmas section on the empty area for the coming months. Later turn it into a large city park
