10 000m facts
While investigating facts about 10 000m, I found out little known, but curios details like:
The largest building with completed construction plans is a 10,000m (33,000 ft) tower that would cost 16 trillion USD to construct with a 100-150 year construction time, but it can house 30 million people.
The tallest building ever proposed, at 10,000m (32,808 ft) high was the Tokyo Tower of Babel, taking 100-150 years to complete and could house 30 million people
In my opinion, it is useful to put together a list of the most interesting details from trusted sources that I've come across. Here are 7 of the best facts about 10 000m I managed to collect.
