The village, which became 11 different European cities and villages, was 12 acres -- the size of nine American football fields.
To plan the logistics of how the village would be transformed, a scale set model was built to work out physically where to put everything and demonstrate how a structure changes from one use to another. Then a talented crew of 15 draftsmen and nearly 200 construction workers made the model a reality.
