New N scale Product: The Grande Bandstand

American Archetype is pleased to announce the release of the Grande Bandstand structure kit now available in N Scale.

The model is based on the combination of several prototypes, including bandstands in New Orleans, LA; Boston, MA; Providence, RI; and Pawtucket, RI. Its general style follows bandstands that were designed in the early 1900s – most of which are still in use today. Used to enhance the acoustics of a live band performance and protect band members from weather conditions, bandstands like this can be found all around the world in city parks or other public gathering places.

The bandstand is available in two variations – with or without railings and stairs. Each kit is produced as an on-demand rapid prototype as one part. No assembly is required. Kit instruction sheet with suggested paint colors is available for download from the American Archetype web site.

American Archetype’s Grande Bandstand, with railings and stairs sells for $40.00. Bandstand, without railings and stairs sells for $34.00. For more information, visit http://www.americanarchetypemodels.com.

I did not see the dimensions listed.  I have a space that is a city park like area which is yet undeveloped.

I just need the diameter of the base to see if it would fit; think it would look great.  Would be just across the street from Union Station.
Thanks.
