The only problem with "Harbors"........they are LARGE !!! even in Z scale.
My Modules, have 5 scale acres of water, and they still look a bit crowded. Sad

Looking forward to seeing how this works out for you. Thumbsup Thumbsup

Ahaha! You're right... The only way to be truly prototypical is to model NYC small yards! ;-) Once made a benchwork for Harlem, taking roughly 5' x 6' estate.

Quebec City old harbour would take 60' x 32'... The grain elevator would be about 20' feet long!!! I can't imagine when you about a real large city!!!! The old layout represented the same thing in 8' x 12'!!!! We kept what we really wanted from the prototype and rebuilt it differently. It was the only answer.
