Tour de Lego

Starting in January of this year a tower of Lego was built, piece by piece, until it almost covers a wooden street sign pole.

The “Tour de Lego” was the idea, and work, of Martin Reis. Some of the Lego was donated by friends and neighbours but Reis bought a lot of the Lego specifically for this project.  There are a couple of little extras like the buttons seen here.

Near the top are some Lego windows that open to reveal little pompoms stuffed inside.

    Hi Mary. I love the Lego pictures! I’m thinking of going back and taking some more pictures. I’m looking forward to seeing what you do with the other photos.
