    Your mini layout shows how smart Lego is designed. 5 bricks are as high (ignoring the studs) as 6 bricks are wide. Divided by 3, 5 plates are as high (again, ignoring the studs) as 2 bricks are wide. A brick resting sideways on the studs of the baseplate is as high as a bricks standing upright on the baseplate (you guessed it, ignoring the studs).

But one day my sister let two kids she was babysitting come over and play with it and they took everything apart and destroyed the whole city. I was so devastated I never had the will power to try and put it back together plus alot of the parts were missing and so were the instructions.

    That would make the transport and display at exhibitions much easier, and need to be thought before starting building.

    I really like how you're using bricks for the streets instead of base plates. It looks more like the streets in IRL.

      It looks awesome ,
      It is a really expensive way to do it.
