Building #2. Phase Three.

THIS BLOG IS BEST READ CHRONOLOGICALLY.  

IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST VISIT,

 PLEASE CONSIDER SCROLLING ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE EARLIEST ENTRY.

Here's what the building looked like at the end of Phase Two:

The row of little structures sitting on top of the entrance pavilion had become a sort of American Plastic Bricks version of the Ponte Vecchio in Florence, Italy:

As a child I had always loved building the bridge that was illustrated in the older American Plastic Bricks instruction booklet.  So with the Ponte Vecchio in mind I decided to insert aspects of that bridge into this building.

The results produced a new version of the building.  A version that still seemed to possess a certain amount of integrity.  

The row of little structures on the bridge were moved around to accommodate a new walkway across the upper level of the bridge. The long arcade that had connected the entry pavilion back to the original entrance was roofed over to continue the upper level walkway back to the courtyard.

And another bridge was added that arched over the courtyard to the very back of the building.

The patterns made by the repetition of the smaller structures were now both clearer and at the same time more complex.
