Skylines is the Architecture series that builds a whole city in one model, with several of its landmarks side by side on one base, each at the scale that lets it fit. It started in 2016 with Venice, Berlin and New York City, and cities from Sydney and London to Tokyo, Dubai and Singapore have followed. Shanghai came back in a new version in 2025. Each set is a kind of postcard. Paris puts the Eiffel Tower next to the Louvre, and New York stands the Empire State Building beside the Statue of Liberty.

One set has an unusual story. 21038 Las Vegas was planned for 2018 and included the Mandalay Bay hotel, and after the shooting there in October 2017 LEGO replaced it with 21047 Las Vegas, with the Bellagio in its place.

About LEGO Architecture

The Architecture theme which was introduced in 2008 contains sets designed by Chicago architect Adam Reed Tucker based on real structures. Adam Reed Tucker's sets focus on incredible man-made sights and structures based upon the real world and comprised of microscale models. Unlike most LEGO, Architecture sets are typically not meant for playing but rather designed for display. 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.

Adam Reed Tucker sought a method to join his two passions of art and architecture using LEGO bricks. He founded Brickstructures, Inc. to design and build models of famous landmarks. Together with the LEGO Group they formed a partnership to release some of his models under the LEGO Architecture brand.
