The first four models in the LEGO Architecture series included the Empire State Building, the Seattle Space Needle, and Chicago’s John Hancock Center and Sears Tower. In May of this year, LEGO introduced Frank Lloyd Wright’s Guggenheim model at the opening of the Guggenheim’s Frank Lloyd Wright: From Outward Within exhibition. A Fallingwater model, introduced in July, includes a 100-page-plus hardcover book; all of the other models contain booklets with archival historic material and photographs as well as building directions.
Available through Tucker’s site at brickstructures.com, as well as at high-end bookstores, museums, and retailers nationwide (as well as the landmarks), the models range from $20 to $100, depending on the set. “We are creating a very enriched experience,” says Tucker. “The bricks are just a tool to tell the story.”
