Building on a Dream: The Empire State Building
Omtale
A fascinating exploration into the construction of the iconic Empire State Building in New York City. Learn how the construction was able to be completed in just one year and how assembly line techniques used in the auto industry were implemented in the construction of the building resulting in the unprecedented build time. The building of the Empire State Building was a result of a very coordinated, organized effort. The materials were prefabricated, labeled, and arrived at the site per a specific schedule so they could be used immediately. Food services were available on each floor so workers would not need to traverse up and down on breaks. These efforts directly impacted what still stands today, as the fastest build of a skyscraper in history. Featured in the book are archival photographs, chronology of events listing, additional reading and website recommendations, chapter notes, glossary, and index.
