When the 56 story 2 Union Square was built, they made the claim of having the fastest elevators in the West! With it's 90 foot flagpole on top, it rises 975 feet above sea level. Some of the steel used in the project was tubular that was filled with concrete for added stability, and it's said that if you lined up all the concrete trucks bumper to bumper that it took to construct this building, they would stretch from Seattle to Chicago.
There are 92 negatives of this project.
