All "fired" up
Donald Trump may be famous for saying, "you're fired," as well as bad hair styles, but he also has a knack for high-profile construction projects. Take Chicago's Trump Tower for instance, which will be the world's tallest concrete-reinforced building when it's completed in 2009. Workers on that project got serious over the weekend about their concrete, according to an article in the Fort Wayne News-Sentinel In what contractors called the "big pour," trucks worked round-the-clock for nearly 24 hours to bring 5,000 cubic yards of concrete to the site and dump it into a single hole called the mat. This steel-reinforced opening, which measures 200 feet long, 66 feet wide and 10 feet deep, will be a below-ground level anchor for the 92-story building. I'll give Trump one thing: when he builds something, he thinks BIG. Your comment?
