I would bet that the reason the concrete company was used was competitive bidding.
As to why the building is concrete rather than steel girders who actually cares and why is it important? That would be a better question to ask the architect.
His donations to the foundation look a lot more legit than than the Clinton foundation
I don't think that was it. It's more likely he didn't want any union problems when he used the alleged illegal immigrants for the demolition.
I'm sure this kind of stuff will be run non stop if he gets the nomination.
Anybody who is in private business knows there's a lot of "gray area" when you want to get something done.
The concrete (not steel girder) skyscraper is important because Trump used a mafia controlled concrete company, and it would be a very unusual construction method for a building of that height.
I am an architect. Concrete is used on tall buildings in 3rd world countries where skilled labor is scarce and wages are low. It’s rarely used on towers in the US these days. It’s labor intensive, wreaks havoc on schedules, and is easy to mess up. Fire treated steel is almost always used because of strength, weight, and cost.
Exactly. With his HUUGE business conglomerate, this is what they come up with? He built a concrete building? He gave Polish immigrants a job without a hard hat? Oh the horror.
