Incredible construction and display!
Impressive dedication and devotion to the art and craft of papermodel skyscrapers.

The displays would be great to take a micro-cam and produce a video of what it would be like to "fly" in and around the structures. It would be like a realistic helicopter flight through the cityscape canyons.

Is the tallest structure in the back the proposed mile high building? The name and location of the building excapes me.

Amazing display.

That they are all the same scale is great, I never really grasped just how huge the Frank Loyd Wright tower would have been.

Have you done the NASA vehicle assembly building?

No actually I haven't, but it would probably be really small. The four really tall buildings are Al Burj, Nakheel Tower, Russia Tower, and Mile High, Illinois

Jerry: Thanks...

The VAB isn't really notable for being tall, but rather voluminous. It has so much internal volume that it actually has its own atmosphere and weather conditions inside. That's why the HVAC system is so monstrous. And as a side note, it isn't a small building. I read somewhere that a Greyhound Bus could drive on the stripes on the flag, as they are 9 feet wide. The stars on the flag are something like 6 feet in diameter. That's pretty big...

Gotta love the depiction of the Tacoma Narrows bridge in mid-destruction! The only way to make it better would be to transform it to an automata.
