This is a little late, but Lego has done an outstanding job
of building incredibly detailed replicas of historic American buildings. Let’s
start with the Capitol, which houses Congress.
I think most Americans are familiar with a front view of the
Capitol. So above is a side view.
And above is a back view. See the incredible detail?
This is Independence Hall, located in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania. Notice they included the external halls.
Both the United States Declaration of Independence and the
U.S. Constitution were debated and adopted in this building.
Now for something timely: The U.S. Supreme Court.
They included the bas-reliefs at the top of the arch. (Click to enlarge.) You can
just imagine interns running out with the latest Supreme Court decisions.
The back view, which I don’t think I had ever seen before.
So, happy 4th of July weekend!
