Synopsis
From the bestselling author of Skyscrapers , the behind-the-scenes story of the most extraordinary building in the world: One World Trade Center. The new World Trade Center represents one of the most complex collaborations in human history. Nearly every state in the nation, a dozen countries around the world, and more than 25,000 workers helped raise the tower, which consumed ninety million pounds of steel, one million square feet of glass, and enough concrete to pave a sidewalk from New York to Chicago. With more than seventy interviews with the people most intimately involved, and unprecedented access to the building site, suppliers, and archives, Dupr unfurls the definitive story of fourteen years of conflict and controversy-and its triumphant resolution.

- c***a (56)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseSeller was fine and refunded my money when the product was not what I expected. The description led me to believe this was a genuine Toyota filter but it was not. The pictures showed just enough of the filter and box so it was not clear that it was another brand. The box said Toyota in very small print, but the brand on the box and the filter was GETOPAUTO, not Toyota.90915-YZZD1 Engine Oil Filter Set of 12 for Toyota: 4runner, Avalon & Lexus pack (#236021411667)
