Here is a model I made of one of my favorite pubs, Ye Waverly Inn, in New York's West Village. Located at 16 Bank Street, it has a long history, including having been a speakeasy during prohibition. For a bit on the very interesting history, see this article in The Villager. Several years ago, before starting to work with hard exotic woods, I made this model with bass and balsa woods. I recently had the pleasure of giving it to the establishment's current owner.
