$1.35 Billion in Cost to Build
1,100 ft Height to top of Spire

The Big Pour:
21,200 cubic yards of concrete poured, weighing more than 82 million pounds. That's the same weight as about 250 blue whales - the world's largest animal.
It took 2,120 truckloads to cmplete the concrete pour. If you lined up all the trucks, that would take you from DTLA to Santa Monica.
A pour of this magnitude required a total of 100,000 feet of polyethlene tubing. The rebar weighed more than 6.6 million pounds, the same weight as 82 big rigs.
The concrete took a whopping 14 days to cure, helped by 60 tons of chillers, six water pumps and two 20,0000 gallon storage tanks.
