These final pictures were taken after the goodbye party. It was a great success, everyone attended and we had a lot of fun. We indulged in reminiscences and discussed our future plans. So many things happen in 18 years, so many people came and went, we made many new friends but we also lost some, one in particular.

And what began as a pipe dream finally became reality. This project was a lot of fun, from the impossible missions, uncovering the secrets of the architect, revealing the small deviations from the ideal symmetry to the build marathon, final reveal and surprise. This was by far the biggest hit among my colleagues and myself. The final days were the hardest, not only because of the time that was running out but because of the fact that with each day the day was coming nearer when I had to let the model go. However, I know for sure that my (now) former boss is cherishing the model. She was totally blown away and I have never seen her as speechless as on October 31st. She has planned to get a plexiglass box to protect the model and invited me to see it when it has arrived. This might give me the opportunity to add one or two details which I skipped. ;)

Thank you very much for watching and for making this thread a MoM. It is really appreciated. Have fun and enjoy! :)

ADDENDUM:

My colleagues and several tenants were discussing the model and the most prominent three remarks they made were:

1) This is AMAZING!

2) Everything is there, you can even see the laundry in the window.

and

3) Where are we?

The logical answer to this question was of course:

Everyone was inside the house working or having dinner, so you can't see anyone outside!


(Granted, a few were standing right behind the window, but because they did not want to be photographed they put the blinds down: )

It must be wonderful to work with such a close knit group. And your tenants probably enjoy it there too. A great model, wonderfully executed!
