LIRR, I am with Bob that I like the farm concept for the same reasons. It is slightly smaller than scale, so it can give a bit of an illusion of distance.
Ray, your treatment of that corner really turned out well. You hid some of the back curves and made a imaginative industrial building that really is a focus for attention.
Mike, Yes, the River Leaf buildings are great on the exterior, but as you point out they don't include a floor or even foundation. I am thinking of what business to put in the building. I am thinking of taking an approach of Myles Trainman2001, of building the interior on the base with a foundation, even if it is just a picture of the inside of the store and the exterior one block high. The same for the second floor. The kit comes with nice venetian blinds and clear plastic windows that I am not going to install until I have painted the interior walls. All suggestions are welcome.
Last evening, I put my town buildings back on the family room layout upper level mainly so we don't bump and break any of them when I get my sons-in-law to help me move lumber in the little train/workshop room. I don't have a date set for them to help. I'm letting our younger son-in-law transition from working for two employers to full time with the newer one.
