MOC-151842 1/2000 Scale Tallest Buildings in New York City Building Blocks
MOC-151842 1/2000 Scale Tallest Buildings in New York City Building Blocks is authorized and designed by Taters. This microscale architecture model captures the iconic skyline of New York City, based on its tallest skyscrapers. New York's skyscraper history began in the early 1870s with the construction of the Equitable Life Building, the Western Union Building, and the Tribune Building. Since then, the city has become a global leader in vertical urban development.
Today, New York City, the most populous city in the United States, is home to over 7,000 completed high-rise buildings over 115 feet (35 meters) tall, including more than 102 skyscrapers that exceed 650 feet (198 meters). MOC-151842 features a carefully detailed collection of these architectural giants—from early structural milestones to modern supertalls—offering a time-traveling view of the city's evolving skyline.
As construction methods advanced in the late 19th century, the ambition to build the tallest building in the city—and even the world—became a powerful symbol of innovation and prestige. This LEGO-compatible set is perfect for architecture enthusiasts, collectors, and fans of New York who want to recreate the towering beauty of Manhattan in miniature form.
