One of America's Largest Concrete Government Complexes – The Empire State Plaza: https://bit.ly/4xQW4F5 🏙️

The Governor Nelson A. Rockefeller Empire State Plaza (known commonly as the Empire State Plaza, the South Mall, or the Albany Mall) is a complex of state government buildings located in downtown Albany, NY. Built between 1965 and 1976, it houses several departments of the New York State administration and is adjacent to and connected with the historic New York State Capitol, which was built in 1899.

The complex incorporates 8.9 million cubic yards of concrete, clad with 600,000 cubic feet of stone imported from many locations on three continents. Between the pilings and the structural frames of the buildings, over 232,000 tons of steel were used on the project. That is the equivalent of approximately twenty Eiffel Towers!

For fifty years, the Empire State Plaza has stood as the dominant feature of the Albany skyline, and it is all possible thanks to concrete!

🇺🇸 America 250 | Ohio Concrete Spotlight
Ingalls Building
📍 Cincinnati, Ohio

In 1903, the Ingalls Building changed the future of construction as the world's first reinforced concrete skyscraper. Rising 16 stories above downtown Cincinnati, it challenged the belief that concrete could never support a building of that height. Many doubted it could stand, but its success forever changed the way high-rise buildings would be designed around the world.

The building's innovative reinforced concrete structural system proved that concrete could provide the strength, durability, and resilience needed for tall buildings. More than 120 years later, the Ingalls Building remains in use and is recognized as a National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark, standing as a testament to one of Ohio's greatest engineering achievements.

What was once considered an impossible idea helped pave the way for modern concrete skyscrapers across the globe and reinforced Ohio's place in the history of innovation.

This is just one of many remarkable projects we'll feature throughout our America 250 | Ohio Concrete Spotlight series as we celebrate:
250 Years of American Pride, Poured in Ohio.

Seattle’s Most Famous Landmark - Anchored in Concrete!

This week in National Ready Mixed Concrete Association’s America250: Concrete – The Foundation of Our Nation campaign, we’re looking back at the concrete engineering behind the iconic Seattle Space Needle: https://www.nrmca.org/space-needle/

Rising 605 feet above the city, the Seattle Space Needle is one of the most iconic landmarks in the world. Built for the 1962 World’s Fair, it was once the tallest building west of the Mississippi River.

On May 22, 1961, ready mix trucks made 467 trips over 12 continuous hours, placing 2,800 cubic yards of concrete without interruption. At the time, it was the largest continuous concrete placement in the West. The foundation ultimately weighed 5,850 tons, equal to the weight of the entire structure above it.

This heavy underground block anchored the structure so deeply that the Space Needle’s center of gravity is actually below ground level. This engineering design keeps the tower highly stable against earthquakes and high coastal winds - built to withstand winds of up to 200 miles per hour with swaying of only one inch per ten mph, and earthquakes of up to 9.0 magnitude.

The concrete was supplied by Pioneer Sand & Gravel, which later became Glacier Northwest and ultimately joined with California Portland Cement Company to form today’s NRMCA member CalPortland.

More than six decades later, the Space Needle remains a defining piece of the Seattle skyline — and a testament to the concrete foundation making its unmistakable design possible. 🏙️
