Empire State Building: 1930-1931
The 1930's in the United States saw a lot of amazing construction feats, beginning with the Empire State Building in Midtown Manhattan, New York City. The Empire State building was conceptualized by General Motors executive John J. Raskob. He wanted to construct an office building in downtown New York to compete with his rival Walter Chrysler who, at the time, was constructing the 1,046 foot Chrysler Building in East Manhattan. For the architectural design, Raskob went to Shreve, Lamb & Harmon Associates, the best skyscraper architects in the area, and devised an ambitious plan of erecting the Empire State Building higher than the Chrysler Building and finishing before it as well. They wanted to have the building finished in a matter of only 18 short months.

The excavation phase of the project began in January of 1930 and took an innovative approach to building: fast-track construction. Fast-track construction is when the actual construction process begins before the designs are complete in order to reduce delays and inflated costs. The project employed hundreds of men that worked nonstop, day and night, to ensure the fastest possible construction process. Due to tactical logistics and an exceptionally well-organized work force, the building rose incredibly fast. While constructing the steel skeleton of the building, the crews were making progress of at least a story a day, the fastest construction in history for a job of that size. From the organization of manpower used to the material logistics, the project was an amazing feat of efficiency in every aspect. To add to the fast-track construction efficiency, specialty 'subcontractors' such as electricians and plumbers worked to install the necessary internal components while other crews worked on constructing the outside of the building.

With so much efficient work happening on all parts of the project around the clock, the project was complete in 15 months, beating the deadline by an impressive three months. The project required a workforce of 3,500 men and an accumulation of seven million manpower hours in the short 15 months. Due to economic circumstances, the project was also finished well under budget at $24.7 million down from the estimation of $43 million. The speed of construction, the logistics of the project, and the ability to finish under budget and ahead of schedule makes the Empire State Building one of the most impressive feats of construction in all of history.

Stonehenge: 3100 BC

Stonehenge is one of the oldest and most memorable pre-historic monuments in the world. The history of Stonehenge includes multiple revisions and reconstruction throughout time, but the initial design was established about 5000 years ago in Amesbury, England. Stonehenge began with a circular ditch about 100 meters in diameter with an inner and outer bank. The ditch was filled with 56 Aubrey Holes, which were intended to hold either timber posts or large stones. Buried throughout the ditch were over 100 cremations, making Stonehenge the largest Neolithic cemetery in the British Isles.

Over the centuries, through war, weather, and reconstruction, Stonehenge changed in shape and structure. Around 2200 BC, timber was replaced with the massive stones that we see today. The large stones are called "sarsens", weighing up to 25 tons and standing 30 feet tall. The smaller are "bluestones", weighing up to 4 tons. The sarsens were arranged in a large outer circle and an inner horseshoe while the bluestones were set up in between them in a double arc. The means by which these colossal stones were lifted and put into place remains a mystery. Considering the significant lack of any kind of building technology at the time, Stonehenge stands as one of the most legendary feats of architecture in the world.
