In this episode, titled “Parking & Sparkling,” Scott Rummel takes us on a journey to explore three remarkable structures that highlight human ingenuity and engineering brilliance.
The episode highlights the construction of a 1,400-foot tapering skyscraper in New York City, right next to Grand Central. This dazzling structure, with its unique design, is sure to catch the eye. Moving to Bordeaux, France, we explore a curving wine museum that required ingenious engineering to bring to life.
Finally, we turn our attention to what is possibly the world’s most glamorous parking garage, a unique structure that elevates the concept of car storage to new heights of luxury.
