BRICK CITY BRICKS
Brick City Bricks, Plant City’s new and used LEGO® shop, celebrates five years of business this August. Owner, Greg Williams, said his love for bricks began years ago, playing with his grandchildren. Then, Williams realized how valuable LEGO® sets could be and began investing in the toys throughout Bricklink, the largest online marketplace for buying and selling LEGO® pieces. It wasn’t until 2018 that Greg and his wife, Sandi, opened Brick City Bricks as a—for lack of a better term—brick-and-mortar location.
“We are so thankful for every one of our customers for supporting Brick City Bricks,” said Greg Williams. “We’ve become friends with many of our customers, and those friendships mean so much to Sandi and me. We look forward to a great Fifth Anniversary celebration and want everyone to come out and celebrate with us.”

The shop will host its anniversary celebration with in-store specials on Saturday, August 26, from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm. From 11:00 am to 1:00 pm, Brick City Bricks will serve hot dogs and snow cones. Brick City Bricks has plans to partner with Carlson Gracie Plant City; the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu studio is also celebrating its fifth anniversary.
“We want to get the whole block involved and make Saturday, August 26, a day for families on Reynolds Street,” said Greg Williams. “We’ve been in business for five years and every week, we still have families visit the shop and say, ‘We didn’t know there was a LEGO® shop in Plant City.’”
Brick City Bricks has fully-stocked shelves with new, used, and retired minifigures, BrickHeadz, and sets. From Star Wars to Marvel and pop culturethemed sets, there is LEGO® merchandise for everyone at Brick City Bricks. The shop features a Pick-A-Piece wall for those looking for specific individual pieces and offers COBI Building Blocks, sets themed around the military and history. Brick City Bricks currently has planes, tanks, and more in-store.
