Please show me the first structure you built for your current layout. 

My first structure is a bridge. A BLMA kit that going in the desert scene by the principal highway.

Bridge

It was place on the layout then removed for scenery application.  Sitting on the VCR for 3 years now.

 

Show me more first built current structures on the layout.

There is that little Atlas station that shows up on so many layouts. I was given it for my 50th birthday it was the first structure I built returning to the hobby.

 

Please show me the first structure you built for your current layout.

The white building in the front of the photo is scratch built. Unfortunately, you can't see the front, but that's the way it goes.

More scratch or custom builds if you please.
