Alan, Coach Joe is like Engineer Joe, no layout but I've got a couple of tall buildings for the planned future Metropolis. I'll have to get some pictures of them and post them next week.
coach joe posted:Okay here's one, not on the layout yet, and not looking excessively tall, but in real life the Budweiser Brew House in St. Louis is actually quite tall.
Hey Joe!!...I have that one on the layout too! It is a very nice building!

What building or kit is this one? I thought I saw all of yours but every time I look, I see another one!
Joe...if you are talking about the blue clad building, it is made up of a couple of 1970's Kenner Girder and Panel sets. These can be found on a few of the larger auction sites like ebay, etc....
Alan... that is amazing that you got ebay to be a forum sponsor?!?! I am assuming this since you are directing people to ebay to order things???? Otherwise that would be contradictory as to what you preach here on the forum.
again congratulations on getting ebay as a sponsor!!!!???????????????
Alan, I'm going to put it next to an HO Factory building that I converted to a Clydesdale barn. It had a roll up door for trains to enter that's just about the right size for a porcelain 8 horse hitch my wife got for me years ago.

Looks great Coach Joe. I only have the Xmas tree layout 5x3& change, enough for O42 curves. No tall buildings but when things get settled, I've got plans(which still have to be drawn up, lol). Until that time, still grabbing what I can.

Marty....a typical smart guy response I would expect...so let me make it clear again: note that there is no direct link to any seller on ebay. You have been on the forum long enough to know that we have no problem with folks mentioning ebay ...it is done all the time but we don't allow direct links to ebay. Read the TOS.... Your problem is you are ticked off because I had to once again a couple of weeks ago tell you not to promote your product on this forum with direct links to your business website reminding you that it was not fair to our paying sponsors/advertisers here. Don't understand why you would have a problem with that since when you were a sponsor, you would constantly complain about folks promoting with direct links and asking that I delete their posts.....
Alan, sorry for such a delay with the answer on the uberarc Empire State Building. It is almost impossible for me to get back to it now, so my best guess is 8”x10” for a footprint, and nearly 5’ high.
Still wondering where Skip is, guessing vacation since he hasn't logged in in some time.
Is it Tuesday already? Boy does time fly by fast when one is having a good time....am I...? 
OK...here are a few more taken last week:

Keep it up Alan. Hopefully Skip will get back from vacation and give us some goodies. 
Welcome to Schenectady day or night!

Don those buildings have a lot of character. I don't recall seeing anything like them before. Are they bashed, kits, building fronts? Where'd you get them?
They are scratch built models of actual buildings from Schenectady.

I checked your profile and see you are from Schenectady. I spent some time there when I attended Albany Law School, which was affiliated with Union College in Schenectady.
It's very cool that you have models on your layout of buildings from where you live. Arnold

And I think your models of the Schenectady buildings look great. Arnold
Don those are some great looking scratch builds. I wouldn't even know how to go about doing that detaileed work.
