Federal Way man’s Lego legacy includes model of Space Needle
The longtime builder’s work includes an 11-foot totem pole and about 70,000 pieces in his collection, he said.
- Federal Way-area resident Wayne Hussey displays his 14-foot Lego Space Needle inside the Space Needle in Seattle, which he considers his acme for visitors from around the globe to see.
- After working as an engineer for about 25 years, Hussey semi-retired in 2001, allowing him to dedicate significant time to building complex models like the Issaquah Ferry Lego.
- With about 70,000 Lego pieces, Hussey maintains other major creations including a totem pole with a 7-foot wingspan and a Smith Tower model, storing supplies at the BrickCon warehouse.
- Terrie Landers, a school teacher, reconnected with Hussey at a high school reunion, and their shared interest in Lego-building helped develop their relationship, eventually leading to marriage.
- Hussey finds personal fulfillment by sharing his models with others who take pictures with them rather than just viewing them, distinguishing his projects from typical Lego creations.
