Unlocking the Potential of LEGO Set 60422-1 Harbour

The 2024 LEGO City Harbour set (60422-1) is packed with bright red gantry cranes, shipping containers, a cozy seaside café and a sturdy cargo ship—making it a perfect springboard for your own harbour-side MOCs. Beyond the official build, builders around the world have reimagined this set in exciting ways:

Expand the Port: Add extra containers, docks or even a second ship to turn your harbour into a full-scale shipping terminal.
Upgrade the Machinery: Swap out the basic crane for a heavy-duty, level-luffing model with multiple functions.
Diversify the Fleet: Convert leftover hull pieces into a fishing trawler, tugboat or beach rescue craft.
Create Shore Facilities: Use façade elements to build fish-processing stations, boardwalk cafés or a raised access ramp for cargo-crane maintenance.
