This 1:1 scale build, which started with a team of at least 50 to 80 Minecraft players working together simultaneously, covers nearly 700 square km or about 270 square miles, with some areas being rebuilt multiple times to ensure real-world accuracy.
The team has since completed multiple areas, including Liberty Island, which contains the Statue of Liberty, NoHo, SoHo, Nolita, Bowery, Little Italy, Chinatown, Two Bridges, and every other district neighborhood south of Canal St., except for the Financial District.

BTE New York City is by far the largest group, with over 3,719 members at the time of writing.
