LEGOS Fans: if you had the money & space to build their architectural sets- which would you build? [View all]

I was a building kid from waaay back: cardboard "bricks", ?Lincoln logs, Tinker Toys(!), Legos.
Occasionally, I've have had Legos as an adult, too.

I love architecture, and wow, some the Legos sets are so cool, but unaffordable by me. This just got prompted by the new Lego LOTR Booknook "Balrog & Gandalf" set!

If I could only have one, it'd be The Taj Mahal; preferably the 700$+ version! 😄 But I'd happily take the ?89$ one. Such a glorious building!

Then Notre Dame, Riverdell (LOTR), Falling Water [Frank Lloyd Wright], and the tree house.

I have passed Notre Dame on a gifted trip, saw a real tree house on friend's partner's property, only seen the Guggeheim here in NYC, and Rivendell only in my imagination.

Oh, and if you wanted them to make a Lego set for a real, or imagined place what would you pick? 👍
Just thought of this - so I have to think 🤔about it. 😄
