Minecraft City Building Ideas

When it comes to playing Minecraft I'm sure almost everyone has worked on building a city or some sort of small town at some point and it can be hard to find new things to build. Maybe you’ve run out of ideas, or just need something to jump start a brilliant new addition to your area.

This can certainly give you a bit of a hand in that regard. While working on my Realm I've been coming up with a number of great to build with some solid feedback from other Realm goers so I've compiled a list of interesting builds.

You can find that list below and if you have any other great ideas for what I should add to it let me know as it's always great to find new ideas to build. We’re always looking for the next exciting concept, to continue expanding what we offer in the town.
