Several years ago, Discovery channel did an "Extreme Engineering" show on what it took to build the one that just blew up ... went looking for an archive of it somewhere to post here, but no luck at all in finding it. I remember that show and all the details of just how difficult a project the original one was. Which is why I'm first on line to spank the MTA over "you didn't put waterproofing in all that contract paperwork?!?!?!"But what got built down there is THAT complicated, given everything that they had to build around without making it fall over on top of it when they built it. I can understand the costs involved. I can't understand the expectation that it would never get wet though. :( |
