22 mm tall on a 160 mm print
Make this print opens the generator on a 600 m square around the landmark. Buildings print at close to true scale, so the landmark grows with the print size.
- A very long, uniform block
This building is a single long slab with stepped ends. A larger print keeps its many repeated window bays readable, and a layer height of 0.12–0.16 mm helps the facade rhythm stay clean.
- One piece with the ground
111 Eighth Avenue is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.
- Pick the detail for your nozzle
In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.
- Colors
Buildings, roads, water and ground arrive as separate filament slots in the 3MF. 111 Eighth Avenue takes the building color.
- File format
You get a 3MF for Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or PrusaSlicer. Any of them can save it as STL if you need one.
About 111 Eighth Avenue
111 Eighth Avenue goes by the name Google Building and was once the Port Authority Building. This Art Deco structure of 15 stories stands in Chelsea, Manhattan, and uses a whole block bounded by 15th and 16th Streets, running from Eighth Avenue to Ninth. Its floor space, 270,000 m2 (2.9 million square feet), exceeds the Empire State Building's floor space.
The Port of New York Authority started buying land for the site in 1930, and the building was finished in 1932. Lusby Simpson of Abbott, Merkt & Co. was the designer. It opened as Union Inland Terminal #1, a place where goods passed between trucks, railroad lines and Hudson River piers. It was then the largest building in the city. Each of its four truck elevators could carry 40,000 pounds (18,000 kg).
Seagull motifs recur across the Art Deco exterior. Brick makes up most of the walls, set on granite bases, with limestone on the first two stories and terracotta for copings and finials. A helipad sits on the roof, and there are penthouse floors at each end. Google bought the building in 2010 for $1.8 billion and became its largest tenant.
