The hardest part with those is usually the texture, because if I'm going to bother modeling the building I would rather not use a generic "brick building" texture if I can make something work from Google Street View.
The SketchUp files themselves don't get too much bigger. It's the OBJ files can get huge, although not always - BB&T Charlotte's OBJ file is 125mb, which is 5 times(!) larger than Coolray's . That's all text-based geometry, though, and they compresses way down when I zip the parks up. But the SketchUp files are only 8mb different. Go figure.

125 MB! Wow. That’s a testament to the detail you use. I think on average my parks run about 25MB zipped up (with 2D diagrams and everything else)
