BrickList: How to make a functional Diagon Alley
How to make a functional Diagon Alley
This sequel is for the people who made my "How to make a functional Hogwarts" bricklist the #1 "how to make Hogwarts" list! Last time I checked it was also #51 (of all lists) and the #1 Harry Potter list. Like its preddecesor, this bricklist is for insperation.
UPDATE: This list is now the number 1 Diagon Alley Bricklist!
Created by Berrybrick. Last updated on 03 Dec 2010.
1. 10217: Diagon Alley
Obvious. Place down Gringott's first. Then Ollivander's, facing inwards, on the right side of the bank. Save Borgin and Burke's for the next step.

2. 4766: Graveyard Duel
Really nothing to do with Diagon Alley, but with only about five sets dedicated to representing it, a wider a variety of sets must be used to make this list truly functional.
Anyway, place down the gate (open without a chain and locks) and have it mirror Ollivander's. Put Borgin and Burke's down facing the same way as Gringott's is but on the other side of the fence. Put some of the items such as the tree, skeletons, and bats in "Knockturn Alley."
