Ben Smith, who’s lived in North Park for the past five years, speculates he’s spent between $10,000 and $20,000 on Legos.
North Park resident Ben Smith is no Lego master builder. Instead, his — hobby? passion? obsession? — began as a way to visit places he missed going to during the pandemic.
So, how bad has it gotten for Ben? Well, he's got bins on top of bins — dozens? hundreds? — full of the little plastic bricks. Pressed, he speculates he's spent between $10,000 and $20,000 on Legos,"but not six figures," he adds with a laugh. To date, Smith has re-built many of San Diego's iconic structures, including St. Patrick's Catholic Church, the Casbah and the North Park neighborhood sign. For those keeping score, the name of his Instagram page is @northparklego, but not ALL of the buildings are in North Park.
