Personally if possible, i would angle the bridge to the front left corner a smidge! Otherwise it looks great, maybe some dwarf hairgrass up by the building and some bigger plants in the back left corner (seems a little bare). Looks awesome, good work!

Hmm.. I'm not sure, maybe rivercats can say, if unsure then maybe you could do another shorter plant beside and around the buildings.
 
I trim the tops off the plant in the far back right and replant them, i dont kniw what there called but it seems to be doing well and the offcuts aswell! I wanted to cover the steps of the building with a moss but i donk know what moss to use or how to do it like a carpet

Marimo moss balls i have heard you could open and carpet with, if not you could google "carpeting aquarium plants".
 
Can we get a squared up full tank shot for reference?


That being said, you have at least one non-aquatic plant in your tank. The one with white borders is called a 'white ribbon' and will not survive underwater. I'm also concerned that the one on the far left is mondo grass, another non-aquatic, but I can't tell for sure in that picture.
