Fun build
on March 4, 2019

The Architectural set - San Francisco was a fun build and a good chance to reminesce. I have been building the sets recently of those places I have visited in my travels. The set is easy enough for anyone to construct.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Awesome Set
on February 5, 2019
Posted by: RobCL
From the first time that I saw this set, I knew that I had to have it.
It's absolutely stunning to see in person. The main focus point is obviously the Golden Gate Bridge. Although it's built in a maroon color rather than the bright red orange color it actually is, the Lego designers captured its beauty perfectly with the swinging cables. This part of the model is what made this set a must-have in my book.
The other buildings in the set are pretty well captured too. The designers did a great job with the Transamerica Pyramid. I also love the printed bricks used in Alcatraz Island.
Overall, the Lego designers really hit a home run with this set. It was a really fun build that looks awesome!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best skyline set yet!
on January 23, 2019
Posted by: JeremyW
This set is the best skyline yet... capturing not just specific structures, but the whole city's feel and aesthetic. It's stunning, and a fun build.
The only downside is it's so detailed, it makes some of the earlier skyline sets-- ie. New York (which needed a bridge in there)-- look plain by comparison!
Dear LEGO: Please add a Brooklyn Bridge set to the Architecture or Creator Expert lines. It would be a huge hit.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Yet another excellent LEGO Architecture Skyline!
on January 15, 2019
Posted by: Smoov
Great set! I was one the fence about this one for a moment but then just decided to pull the trigger due to how much I've enjoyed the rest of the series... I'm so glad I did! I love the skyline series and this is a great addition. There's actually a lot more than meets the eye at first glance, and the design is rather clever and extremely sturdy. While some aren't into the 3D "forced perspective" nature of the Golden Gate Bridge, it works quite well and looks better than you'd expect once assembled. Plenty of intricate details in this set more than make up for that one minor detail if you're on the fence like I was! Grab it, you won't regret it!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Shallow representation of a complex city.

Too much subject matter was attempted resulting in too little detail.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from LEGOBy Emily, Customer Service, January 16, 2019
We're sorry to hear that you were disappointed in your LEGO® Architecture set. Our Architecture theme features stylized versions of the world's most iconic buildings, making for sleek pieces that are great to display on a desk or shelf. Our designers always love to find creative ways to show off our existing pieces, and the Architecture line is a testament to how the smallest pieces can represent the greatest buildings.
If you're looking for sets that are more detailed, you might be interested in our Creator Expert theme. The theme features awesome buildings like Big Ben, the Taj Mahal, and Tower Bridge. Because these sets are larger, they're able to pack in more true-to-life details.

San Francisco

a good model to build and looks great. Nice detail of my favorite city to visit.
I think using numbered bags for parts and number sections in instructions makes for a better build. Glad to see this function. Hope all future architecture sets this way.
