February 29, 20169 yr The dome is what makes this building - It's unfortunate that LEGO did an awful job with it (as the rest of it looks great). I'm with you on that one. As I wrote in an earlier post... very unfortunate design.

May 30, 20169 yr September. One shop here had it available online a while back but I guess that was a mistake.
August 18, 20169 yr We know there's lots of hype over Cinderella's Castle this week, but this one is starting to show up in LEGOLand stores too.

August 18, 20169 yr Awesome. This is the set i've been most interested in getting for my collection this year. This, the Brick Bank, and perhaps the U-wing are the only sets this year that have given me something to look forward to from lego, in an otherwise very lackluster year. Do you guys know if this is the same box size as Imperial Hotel, Fallingwater, Villa Savoye? I take it this is available on September 1st? Usually, January 1st, May 1st and September 1st is when they traditionally release architecture sets. Edited August 18, 20169 yr by fossilrock

Same width as advents but little shorter and deeper. Buckingham was a weird box. Similar to louvre but much deeper. Only 2 per case on those as well

August 20, 20169 yr Popular Post A little over half way. Lots of tiny pieces. About as wide as the castle Edited August 20, 20169 yr by ravenb99

August 21, 20169 yr I would love to see a Creator sized version of this iconic building. Castle looks great as well.

Agreed lackluster year. 1 of only 4 sets I will buy this year for my collection along with Porsche, Big Ben, and Disney Castle.

I didn't do robie cause you and another member repeatedly told me I would not enjoy it. This one starts off tedious then seems to get better. The little pieces just get aggravating with big hands. Big ben needed it though to make it look so detailed. Edited August 21, 20169 yr by ravenb99
August 30, 20169 yr I just saw my sons lego magazine, and this was listed for 99.99. I would have assumed this was easily 129.99. About time lego cuts a minor break on at least one set. The buckingham was 49.99. Not 79.99 like some said.
August 31, 20169 yr Nice price. Now to figure out how long it'll stay in production. White house or Sungnyemun.
September 18, 20169 yr https://www.walmart.com/ip/LEGO-Architecture-United-States-Capitol-Building-21030/51720837
September 18, 20169 yr Damn you Walmart.....even more of my money coming your way. Today was an expensive day.
