I've been experimenting with using small plexiglass boxes as the base for building projects. The first were these two brick paper-covered towers in Kings Port.
I just recently made a Rexall's Drug store for my business district at West Mill using a box like this.

With more brick paper and other details it came out like this:

I added the drugstore to extend main street so the buildings blocked the view of a couple of staging tracks behind them. You can see a GP38-2 sneaking out behind the coffee shop above. In order to to this I had to move the entire line of stores a little forward, narrowing the street too much to be believable. I decided that cars do not use this street so there is a new municipal parking lot on the west side of the business district.

Next step is to paint and detail those cheapie little cars.
