Mean Streets is the full-color, self-assembly card model 1:60 scale (28mm) complete Art Deco city, with multiple road surfaces, sidewalks, alleys, a levee, street car system, and other accessories. It is constantly being expanded and updated, and now its TVAG webpage is full of new photos of the latest designs and re-designs!

Full information about each building and block section, and all the other components, is now ready for your inspection.

Through the remarkable work of fellow gamer, master modeler and photographer Brian Weathersby, all new prototypes are expertly presented, making this new Grand Opening possible at last.

"Deanie" O'Bannion's Flower Shop

Increased 3-Dimensionality and Art Deco architecture abound, along with hundreds of period graphics in signage and advertising. There are currently enough buildings, streets and alleys to fill an 8' x 5' gaming space, large enough for distinct neighborhoods and even long automobile chases!

Each block section is still only $10.00 USD or less for the PDF, sent free by email when your order is processed, allowing you to print each as often as you like. Bought singly, or discounted when bought in bulk, there is still no other RPG accessory like it in the hobby.

The price of laser-cut wooden models, and those in resin, is staggering! All 20 Mean Streets blocks, plus assembly instructions, delivered, cost less than eight of the newest wooden kits without any of the different street, sidewalk, and alley types, and other accessories. The weight and fragility of wood and resin items make transport to games and conventions a major hurdle – and you still need hours to build and/or paint them!

Barton Arms & Mama Lagano's Restaurant

For period-feel and to inspire countless story lines for your games, each and every part of Mean Streets is tailor-made for roleplaying all kinds of Pulp Fiction, Gangster, Hard-Boiled Detective, or even Lovecraftian Horror.

The Joe Hill Union Hall & the Backwater Inn

Even if you think card models are not for you, please visit and see for yourself just how good they look. You might be persuaded to give Mean Streets a try!

New additions are in the final stages of test assembly now, including another historical model – The Hawthorne Inn/Hotel – Al Capone's HQ in Cicero, Illinois, and the scene of the wildest mob-on-mob attempted hit in Beer Wars history: Hymie Weiss's "Siege of the Hawthorne Inn," the motorcade drive-by to kill Capone himself!

Watch for It!
