I would have to say that this is almost a good set. What ruins it is the Chrysler Building as it looks nothing like the real thing. I have it displayed with some other architecture sets and I always seem to get the question “what is this building” every time someone visits and sees the set.
If there was a redesign of that building I think it would be a bit better
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Pretty Good

I would say this is a mild set. It looks pretty good on a shelf, but it is not that sturdy. The white and clear building breaks apart really easily if you accidentally shake the shelf or something like that, but over all it is a good set.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The Not So Big Apple

This was my first architecture set and I didn’t think I would enjoy it that much because of the low piece count. I was pleasantly surprised with the finished model and really enjoyed seeing each of the buildings take shape. The Statue of Liberty seems like it’s not too scale and it’s hard to know what it is, but the other buildings in the skyline are completely recognizable. The Empire State Building and One World Trade Center are awesome recreations of the originals and the completed set looks great on display! Nice job Lego designers!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Pieces could have been packaged better

I purchased this set as a gift to my niece and we realized immediately that this set was going to be challenging to put together. I think the biggest complaint is that the pieces were in all different bags instead of packaged by each section (like other sets we've put together) which caused a lot of questions to make sure we were using the correct pieces to construct the set. Also the "Statue of Liberty" was comically small.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Was fun to put together, but the Statue of Liberty does not have her arm up.
