50 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.
- Pyramidal tower roof
The tall, slim tower ends in a pyramid roof with a fine tip. Print slowly with good cooling, and a layer height of 0.12-0.16 mm keeps the roof lines crisp.
- Wide base, tall tower
The broad base carries a much taller tower, so a bigger print helps keep its columns and setbacks visible. Print friendly adapts the thinnest parts if you print small.
- One piece with the ground
The Thurgood Marshall United States Courthouse 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. The Thurgood Marshall United States Courthouse 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 the Thurgood Marshall United States Courthouse
This 37-story courthouse is on Foley Square at 40 Centre Street, in the Civic Center of Lower Manhattan. It opened in 1936 to a Classical Revival design by Cass Gilbert working with his son, Cass Gilbert Jr. Early names were United States Courthouse and Foley Square Courthouse. In 2001 Congress approved renaming it for former Supreme Court justice Thurgood Marshall, and the rededication took place on April 15, 2003.
Two sections make up the building: a base of six stories and an office tower of 31 stories. Gray Minnesota granite covers the exterior. Three interior courtyards sit inside the base, which fills an irregular lot, and a portico with massive granite steps marks the Centre Street entrance. The square tower is set back from the base. A modest setback at the 27th floor narrows it, and above the 30th it ends in a pyramidal roof. It contains 35 courtrooms, and the 25th floor holds a library with a double-height space.
A 1928 proposal for the courthouse arose because the older City Hall Post Office and Courthouse was overcrowded. Construction began in July 1932 and took three and a half years, making it one of the earliest federal skyscrapers. After Gilbert died, his son supervised the work. Its opening came on January 15, 1936. The courthouse is listed in the National Register of Historic Places; New York City also designated it a landmark.
