Forecast Model

This represents the expected annual growth (CAGR) based on a forecast model only.
The New York City Architecture Skyline designed by Adam Reed Tucker set includes five iconic structures in New York City; the Statue of Liberty, Empire State Building, Chrysler Building, Flatiron Building, and One World Trade Center “Freedom Tower”. The buildings are arranged on a narrow base four studs deep. At just under 600 pieces and MSRP $59.99, this is a mid-size set for the LEGO Architecture range with various complex building techniques especially for the Freedom Tower model. There are some great parts in the set but the lack of variety is compensated by quantity of some parts.

While the MSRP is $59.99, the current average price on the secondary markets is around $47. Once retired, the initial annual growth for the first year will be around 21% but will level off closer to 17% after the second year, which will value the set bewteen $77 and $88 shortly after retirement. Based on the annual growth expectations New York City is expected to become a valuable collector set.
Retirement risk. Based on the average lifespan of other sets in this theme which is 22 months, New York City is at risk for retiring in the coming months.

About Architecture Skylines

The debut sets, released in 2008, were of two Chicagoan classics: Willis Tower, and John Hancock Center then New York City's Empire State Building, followed by Seattle’s Space Needle.
