Let's be serious, this would be a multi-million dollar project that even the best master builders of the Lego Group would balk at.

[@SubduedRadical]

If you're going with a minifig scale of 1:42, you might consider trying something like an Arquitens. I feel like that might be doable (25 feet long instead of 180 ft/55 meters). Other options would be a Nebulon-B. A Gozanti would be around 4.9 feet/1.5 meters (and you could get the some minifig scale TIE Fighters in on that action). I think someone's working on that. A GR-75 would also be cool, though probably kind of finicky due to the design.

[@Number1Irishlad]

I mean, assuming a minifig is scaled to be about 1.8 meters high, and a Star Destroyer is only about a kilometer long, It’ll only have to be about 550 minifigures long.

[@ladimensiondesergell6251]

If we take into account Darth Vader who measures 2 meters, a normal destroyer that is 1600 meters and a minifigure that is 4 centimeters, the result would be that the scale destroyer would measure 128 METERS LONG.
