City Blocks (Themeless)

· By SporcleMirror · Published 2024-09-16T14:50:53.786Z

I had a themeless contest in mind when I picked the theme but I like how many of you have used the 2x2 block concept to build themes around it. I'm stealing one of your titles for an actual themeless submission with proper themeless-hard cluing.
