AUBURN HILLS, Mich., Oct. 28, 2015 – LEGOLAND® Discovery Center Michigan today announced the Top Ten results from a public fan vote that determined metro Detroit’s favorite landmarks, all of which will be built from LEGO® bricks and featured in MINILAND when the attraction opens next spring.

Opening in spring 2016, LEGOLAND® Discovery Center Michigan’s MINILAND will be a miniature LEGO brick landscape inspired by metro Detroit’s buildings, attractions and other notable landmarks. MINILAND is one of the most highly anticipated displays at each new LEGOLAND Discovery Center.
“We are so pleased with the overwhelming response to our MINILAND vote from LEGO fans and Michigan residents,” said Hayley Anderson, general manager for LEGOLAND Discovery Center Michigan. “MINILAND will be an exciting addition to our attraction, one that is even more special because of the strength of community participation.

We got a Legoland near Orlando a few years ago and it's so much fun! When it opens, you will certainly enjoy it. So cool that they're making local landmarks too. :)
