Illinois Skyscraper.
One of the reasons why the Great Hall in Berlin was never built was simple: terrain. They actually have built a bunch of massive concrete pillars to test the load bearing capacity of the soil but found out that the kind of terrain in that part of Berlin would never have been able to support a building that size.
It would have been too close to the river, the soil around the Spree mist be very soft and sandy. They would have had to dig down to bedrock for something that big
@@Lv-nq9qz Nazi buildings were never built to last. The stadium in Nuremberg where they had their party rallies was so badly constructed and built that it was crumbling apart in the 1990s already. The only real lasting building is probably the Westwall/Siegfried-line, and that nearly bancrupted the German Empire in the 1930s and drove up housing costs, because you couldn't get contractors anymore.
Another interesting fact: the test pillar survived the war and was so massive it couldn't be demolished safely. Instead it got used for scientific experiments for a few decades and is now a monument with some informations provided there about the site and history.
@@Mowraq Wow, that is amazing! Thank you so much for sharing! :)
I'm sure they could have just built a that much bigger and deeper foundation then. If a million tons of concrete is not enough, make it a billion tons! With all the resources of Europe at their disposal, it would have been easy enough, just way more costly.
Okay dream airport would've been a full on nightmare for anyone living in manhattan. The noise alone would've made living in New York City even less appealing than it already is
9/11 would have been easy
Not even just Manhattan, right across the water you'd definitely still hear that in jersey city/Hoboken
@@Zadesniper As i am literally sitting across the river from where this was proposed to be built in LIC right now, I 100% agree. NYC would be almost totally unlivable if this succeeded.
@@augury2699 maybe they could build it somewhere else? Question is where on a waterfront to put it?
@@julieleatherwood7898 No, the twin towers would never have ever been built if the airport was built where they were.
Love how Gaudí dedicated his life to the Sagrada Familia....and nearly a century after he died, it's STILL under construction. People love to complain about our Ryugyong Hotel and how it's still unfinished, yet no one bats an eye when it comes to the Sagrada.
Bruh
Yeah, because it isn’t such a long build time for a cathedral. Cologne cathedral took about 600 years to get build….
@@Jonas.N The Dom only took around 300 years, between like 1250 and 1550 or something. Still makes de la Sagrada Familia seem like child's play at 140 but 600 in an overstatement and a half
@@Jonas.N Terrorist: "Hey look, I made a pile of rubble. Only took me like, ten seconds. Eleven, tops."
@@Jonas.N sure, but how many of them had the benefit of modern machinery to help them build it.
At this point Sagrada is nothing but a scam. If they actually wanted to finish it, it would have been a long time ago.
The Illinois skyscraper looks like the Jeddah tower that Saudi Arabia is trying to build
If I'm correct, I think the illinois skyscraper was the jeddah tower's inspiration
@@Ju-op9cl Bingo!
@@catzzzz1450 An epic fail since 1/3 height has been built.
The Jeddah Tower is an almost direct copy of the Mile High with a few tweaks. It was also originally planned to be a mile high, but they reduced it to a kilometer when they realized how much the cost would be for a mile
@@ClementinesmWTF Is it just me, or does that twisted skyscraper in Chicago look an oversized drill bit?
Gaudi's hotel and the sphere planetarium sound like great projects which should be reconsidered with today's technology. The other ones are too far fetched to be realistic, with the exception of the Chicago spire, which also looks like a nice design.
Gaudi may have spent 43 years on Sagrada Familia, but he got so hung up on details he didn't get very far. The art book I have of it from the mid 90s is just the front of the cathedral, with a few foundational elements behind it.
Since the photos of that book were taken, construction on the cathedral was restarted, and now, the building is almost complete. And as the images in this video show, it's an easy contender for most astonishingly beautiful structure in the world. I'd never heard anything about this new construction, so when I went to Barcelona with friends and took my little tour of Gaudi buildings, I was floored by the building I'd expected to be a sad monument to what might have been, and ended up being potential fulfilled.
Of course, when you actually look at the parts Gaudi worked on himself, you can see why he made so little progress. In comparison to the rest of the building, the original structure is just so detailed, so elaborate, with sculpture literally bursting out of the masonry as though trying to come alive, it's clear that, at the rate he was going, he wouldn't have completed the building even if he'd continued working on it to this day. It turns out that, sometimes, brilliance can be the enemy of accomplishment. He also abandoned construction on a smaller, more humble church over in the Guell colony, leaving only the lower chapel and an impressive model of what the final piece might have been. Of course, that lower chapel and the unfinished building around it are also stunningly beautiful, unparalleled works of art.
In a magical world where Gaudi could realize all his impossible dreams, this hotel would surely have easily eclipsed all other buildings in Manhattan as the city's greatest attraction. Alas, we don't live in that world.
The big airport is possible but will probably be halfway built and then abandoned like most mega-projects
The Gaudi hotel looks like a typical background building from Futurama, so maybe in the distant future, someone will dust off the design and build it somewhere in Manhattan (downtown wouldn't be good for it, maybe south midtown, somewhere it could stand out)
Love when architects come to engineers and say "hey, check out my new design"...engineer shakes his head...
And then the engineer and the architect work together to design a very depressing box.
@@thepinkestpigglet7529 I mean you have to know how to build a tall building without making it fall down, so in most of case it looks like triangles or boxes, due the wind and such.
The world would look boring and no progress would be made if engineers would not be pushed by architects.
@@RK-cj4oc but there wouldn’t be any kind of infrastructure if it wasn’t by engineers
@@adolfodavila6158 very true. But it also would not progress and we would be stuck with wooden huts.
Illinois Tower was never more than a basic concept, there's no evidence Wright actually seriously considered trying to build it. The Cenotaph was also never considered as a project to be built. Most of Boulleé's most famous works are incredible concepts like the Cenotaph which were understood from the beginning as only acts of imagination.
The Illinois was the skyscraper to rule them all... 😂
I just checked an inflation calculator. The $3 billion estimate for the Manhattan airport would be about $45 billion in today's money!
And wouldn't cover the land value
Let's be honest, the only pyramid that matters is the Bass Pro Shops pyramid in Memphis. I mean you can stay at a lodge, inside a Bass Pro Shop, inside a pyramid...you can't do that anywhere else.
And as a New Yorker, I'm so glad that airport wasn't built. Sure all the traffic heading to NYC and within the city sucks but if the airport was built, it would've been ten times worse. So be appreciative of the airports we currently have. Because having three main airports are definitely better than having just one when compared to other cities.
that illinois tower would be great. Can hold all government offices. Cant see that going wrong in anyway.
The part where we hear somebody call out : "Due to a breach in radiation the elevators are no longer working." bugs me a little.
was looking for a comment about this lmao
@@PotatoeSnow hes talking about 911 and how if a plane hit the government building Illinois tower than all government facilities are done for
Fun fact: The Great hall would've been so big that the Moisture inside would create an own weather inside the hall itself

Poor Chicago spire. The first one ruined by recession, second one gets started just in time for another one.
10:56 If I'm not mistaken, this is the 'GroBeKö', the Großbelastungskörper (german for "heavy load-bearing body"). A test if the ground in Berlin would withstand the heavy loads of such gigantic buildings. It wouldn't.
Yes that's correct
(I'm German)
Yes, i think they wanted to test how much the soil could carry (For their planned Arc de Triomphe).
The rooftop airport was definitely dumb. Offices are already stressful and thus, an airport with sound and vibrations? Wow a perfect office
The airport would have been a crazy endeavor..
9/11 wouldn’t have happened.
Reaching out with big ideas always spurs others, these may not of been built but it certainly helped move other projects and ideas along
Ignoring Hitler's political views, i kinda like massive city redesign. I would have liked to see his whole plan for the city and whether it was efficient or just an entertainment center.
kinda wanna build these buildings in cities skylines lol just to see how it'd look.
He had great ideas, just really really shitty ideals lol
Half of berlin would've been destroyed by building this.
@@Zadesniper they literally lost the war because he was incompetent
If we go back a bit in history, then The Black Taj Mahal visioned by Shah Jahan but was never built apart from the foundation could have been included in your list.
But Hoping it will be Revived Once Again in order to Boost India's Tourism, Because We Need The Black Taj Mahal in Order to Make India a Superpower, High Income, and Developed Country.

Pick up your cross and follow Jesus! The world is quickly headed for destruction, and sooner or later you will have to sit at the judgement seat and give an account for your actions. Belief in messiah alone is not enough to grant you salvation - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36). Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life! - Revelation 3:20.
Contemplate how the Roman Empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years going back to Babylon and before, C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate once you start a relationship with God tho.
Can't get a response from God? Fasting can help increase your perception and prayer can help initiate events. God will ignore you if your prayer does not align with His purpose (James 4:3) or if you are approaching Him when "unclean" (Isaiah 1:15, Isaiah 59:2, Micah 3:4). Stop eating food sacrificed to idols (McDonald's, Wendy's etc) stop glorifying yourself on social media or making other images of yourself (Second Commandment), stop gossiping about other people, stop watching obscene content etc and you should get a response. Have a blessed day!
The one in Chicago would have been faaaantastic
That building would’ve looked so good in Chicago
I love the early 1900s American history. Seemed our nation then had such charisma, and wanted to build the biggest, push the envelope in all areas.
And then make America first and great again was deemed defensive
Yup
Apart from feeding and homing their people.
I would love if the Chicago spire could be finished
Why? It's a fukin a dildo. Do something else
Chicago is a liberal hellhole. Its best days are long behind it.
There were engineers who dreamed projects much ahead of their time.. very impressive
Gaudi's designs are a visual nightmare to me, glad it never happened
1940s americans: let's build an airport in the middle of NYC
Americans today: * instant 9.11 flashbacks*
Perhaps these structures will one day be able to be experienced in VR
Or in metaverse...
The airport would’ve caused so much pollution from noise, light, and chemicals that Manhattan would’ve been a dead zone🦉😵💫
9/11 wouldn’t have happened.
They were trying to kill Manhattan all throughout the 20th century. The modernist architects and Robert Moses saw the city as a cesspool of tenement housing, narrow streets and pollution. They wanted to tear down the low rises and build 'tower in the park' style housing and office buildings. If Moses had had his way, Manhattan would have been an massive grid of supertalls and 6 lane highways.
@@A_name_is_a_name it was a false flag so it would have happened regardless
Or, perhaps, the construction of NYC going forward would’ve been completely different. Guess we’ll never really know.
Not sure if it is good or bad to see two in Chicago on this, but we sure are building plenty of others now. Interesting vid, thanks!

I love the crazy ideas. People knocking them never had a idea any kind and certainly never had the balls to pursue them
when one video does especially well and instead of innovating and learning from your success you decide to leech from it as much as possible
The Amazon Prime show The Man In The High Castle has a pretty good imagining of what the great hall was supposed to look like
0:32 The first thingsl I thought was: "Immagine an airplane failing the landing and go straight for the building."
The second thing I thought was:
"Oh shit."
Always enjoy watching your videos while drinking some water!
This might not* be the biggest project or most expensive, but Jakarta (Indonesia) has abandoned beams that were supposed to be part of the new monorail system. It was halted and the then-new governor called it “The Monuments of Stupidity” due to the previous government’s negligence 😂 Would be great if you could cover it too!

I was so excited for the Chicago Spire. I would go to the build site to take pics. Of course, the building was never built, so I just have pictures of the giant hole.
As for that great hole, it'd make a great diving well after it got cleaned up.
There was a German suggestion to dam the Straits of Gibraltar and turn the Mediterranean into land area. Top that for insane megaprojects!
I remember hearing about someone who wanted cities to be build in layers, with an airport on top, imaginehouses build in "floors" with a "sheet" between them for the next layer to have a "blank sheet". the only thing I could think about when hearing was things like Mega City One (Judge Dredd), Coruscant (Star Wars) and hive cities (Warhammer 40k), none of them places I would want to live or even visit, it would end up as places where the higher up you lived, the higher in the social hierarchy you would see yourself, and sh*t would flow downwards.
Not to speak of the danger of colapse, if there's not good enough support below, everything above would come crashing down.
I think your referring to LeCorbusiers city concept. He actually put the airport right in the middle of the city, on two major axial highways going north-south and east-west. Could you imagine living in a building with planes flying by it every 5 minutes? It'd be like living in hell.
“Atomic powered elevators”… yeah, no.
Bro, like 3% of the worlds power is nuclear. Riding an elevator 30 times or so is basically one trip on nuclear power
Nice video.
INSANE!
The man who proposed the New York airport definetly didn’t have a mind
These domes remind me A LOT of the Dubai Expo 2020’s Al Wasl Plaza
That airport might have been a good idea. Saving a lot of space by having a sea port under it + lots of additional buildings inside it. It was just a stupid location for it. Maybe if they had built it something like a few miles out at sea and then had some kind of a road/railroad bridge connecting to it? Like maybe relocate it into that wider spot in the river, that seems to be only a couple of miles away from the proposed spot? Then there could have been bridges to the river banks on all sides and plenty of space for ships to pass on both sides.
All of Petersburg (in Russia) was built on what was once a swamp.
The Illinois does look cool maybe one day we'll get something ridiculously tall like that
Very interesting stories.
Thank you :)
The Illinois has a spire that goes up to 1739 meters tall.
Very good that all me gustan todos los vídeos muchas gracias che
Even though I was only a small child during the planning phases of the chicago spire. It still upsets me that the recession cost chicago the title of home to the country’s tallest skyscraper.
One of my dreams once I become an architect is to help design and construct the nation’s largest skyscraper and place it back in chicago… where it belongs.
No shade to the One World Trade Center and all those it honors 🙏🏾, but i dont like the cheat of the antenna being used to make it the tallest
NOW A FUCKING TERRORIST COUNTRY HOLDS THE TITLE WTF
Apparently, that's a grand old New York tradition. The builders of the empire state building did it too, so they could beat the Chrysler building's height.
They could have called it the sphereamid
So you think vanity height is cheating? By that logic Shanghai tower should be the tallest skyscraper in the world instead of the Burj Khalifa since the Burj only has 684 m of usable height and Shanghai has 689 m of usable height. But that just wouldn’t make sense since the spire on the Burj Khalifa is much heigh than the vanity height on Shanghai tower. See how silly that is. It shouldn’t matter how well the architects hide their spires with vanity height, it’s not cheating. Also I doubt NYC will allow Chicago to take that title but fun goal 🙌
Could you please make video about Indian Megaprojects future?
Today New Yorks Iconic Maga International Airport is an amazing feat of structural engineering but imagine what New York would be like without it.
Love this channel!
well that sphere building is being built in Las Vegas so thats kinda cool.
I can only imagine had Germania been built it would have been some pretty awesome ruins where central Berlin is now... Thank goodness that never happened... And personally I think the East Berlin masterplan was cool enough... The Central TV tower... Palace of the Republic (RIP)... Classic modernist architecture!
Palace of republic has been rebuilt. You can see on internet. Pretty amazing
@@pohanabrokula2553 umm… you mean the Schloss?!
@@pohanabrokula2553 no it’s not been rebuilt
The people's palace was awful. Then again, I saw it in 2007, when it was just a hulking ruin. The Schloss project is nicer, it restores some of Berlin's lost architecture and gave it a new purpose. If the palace hadn't been destroyed, it would probably have been renovated into it's current form anyway.
I like how quickly we brushed past atomic powered elevators.
The black taj mahal was also insane but never got built 😢
68 planes a minute, we were so close to glory
I’m still hoping the Chicago Spire gets built eventually, perhaps build it twice as high. That way Chicago can be home to the tallest building in the world again.
Actually an elevated airport is a great idea. Very efficient use of all that real estate.
The NYC airport sounds eerily similar to London City Airport (which was a huge mistake)
Amazing…. I love this channel
Thanks!
They had banned heliport in New York City because of several accidents. Imagine a plane crash with an airport in middle of Manhattan.
We don't have to imagine
Imagine 2
The chicago spire would have been great!
The Great Hall is simply my most desired project to have been built, just because of the sheer volume and atmosphere you‘d experience inside.
Putting aside the nazi context and imagining it to be f.e the ultimate concert/ festival hall is just amazing, think about the acoustics resonating through the building and engulfing you 😮
And on the other hand I’m german and I’d like to see some more structural engineering marvels and gigantic buildings in my country too :)
Yeah, I’m a little gigantomaniac😬
Check the Palace of Soviets project. It was no less grandiose and gigantic, but was fully constructable in reality, just very expensive one. Its construction even started, but was stopped because of WW2 and unfortunately never was continued.
You can see the Great Hall in the show "The man in the High Castle" in one of the second season episodes.
Chicago Spire 😭

Also surprised you didn't talk about the canal america could have built for a long time to go from Pacific to the Atlantic make the north west passage passable
3:51 That's not the Singer Building it's the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company Tower. The Singer Building is the one before it.
Wouldnt the nyc airport bring too much sound because of the planes in general?
Cool concept but awful possibilities
Fun that you mention Swedens Turning Torso.
Wonder how the builders did a ground load test for the pyramids of Giza?
these vids be so entertaining
Thanks!
Germania is even dumber when you take into account the swampy environment of Berlin and how big a capitol building actually needs to be.
Roman state buildings were only as big as they needed to be, regardless of the size of the senate. The Curia Julia, commissioned by Augustus, is noticeably smaller than more ancient structures, built more like palaces, and unlike its predecessor on Capitoline Hill, it stopped the following of a central location for the (imperial) seat of power and was placed in a more natural forum for the senate to convene. Places of worship, specifically synagogues, tended to have a similar design philosophy, if due to lack of resources and population.
The US Capitol was also built on a swamp because the south is all swamp and southern governors wanted it in Virginia yet Northern governors wanted it in Pennsylvania so Congress put it right in the middle which happened to place it in a swamp no one else wanted; but it wasn’t originally meant to be a major population center; just a federal district. Yet DC’s planners never quite learned from a thousand and a half years of architecture. The only other possible cause of these mistakes is a cultural echo of esotericism mimicking the impractically grand scale of but a small period of the ancient world going back to the construction of the domed Capitol building. The White House has a smaller scale to it and its central location can’t be blamed on its original designers or any architect, really. It just generates more and more gravity despite its size staying roughly the same.
The Pentagon sort of breaks the cycle. Arlington is rather out of the way and despite being the lone headquarters of our entire massive military (and already quite large for DC) the building is only as large as it needs to be to fulfill its purpose while holding personnel, including security, bureaucrats and general staff and has a mall with only the essentials to accommodate them. It’d be a hard building to downscale and modernize mainly due to all that’s packed into it being constantly active and needing constant sustenance (thus the mall). The underground sections highlight this. They prove the effectiveness of a balance of building upwards, outwards and downwards. Modern architecture should learn from it.
Cool. I never heard of these before
Do you have any notice about balneario cMboriu super tall residencial building?
i wish they built the dome earlier and then loose. so we could have this Building now in berlin
Gaudí's building would look very similar to Sugarloaf Mountain, in Rio de Janeiro. Squeezed between buildings of similar height would not look good.
2:18 the houses have an amazing view
Would enjoy the view for a few days but would eventually get irritation by the planes sound pollution
undoubtedly I would like to see the great hall.
That New York airport idea has got to be the dumbest & ugliest idea i've ever seen 😂😂
2:01 somewhere in America right now, Kennedy Davenport is walking down the runway.
I like all except the airport, thats just too blocky, and the noise would be awful. cool one would be germania, imagine, all nations in the future, all in one big place, a human progress towards the unified future
The NYC airport sounds like a layman's daydream.
2 runways and electric planes would've been perfect
Imagine waking up because an airplan lands like 3 meters above your window
The Newton Cenotaph for sure.
In São Paulo we have one airport inside the city, it is only for domestic flights
Well.... There has been built more than just some _»shell structures«_ : the east-west-axis has been nearly completed and the Siegessäule column has been moved from the Maifeld in front of the Reichstag building to that axis at todays Straße des 17. Juni boulevard. Besides that, the shown _»shell structures«_ were in fact technical test structure to examine if Berlin's sandy ground will actually carry such massive structures. Spoiler: it would probably not. ;-) Grüße aus Berlin!
I liked the Isaac newton idea tbh out of all of them
I had to pause the video, because the idea of nuclear powered elevators was just too funny. But back then, this was the was people imagined the future I guess.
That giant airport was the subject of many Commissioner Francis Reagan family dinners. Imagine trying to patrol that airport. Pass the gravy, Pops.
Oddly enough, Boris Johnson wanted to build something vaguely similar to the Manhattan airport when he was Mayor of London as an alternative to a third runway at Heathrow.
Idk that New York airport idea looked seemed cool on paper
I don’t know what makes people think we want to be in these big ole buildings
The cenotaph 👌
Não sou nenhum engenheiro mas não entendo por as construções não são mais largas. Pirâmides ou grandes cubos. Parece na minha visão uma cidade inteira caberia em poucos quarteirões
