America, today, grows and moves ’ with such rapid strides—progress being the order of the day - that the largest of anything of Its particular I kind does not so remain very long. In 1922, the General Motors building In Detroit was the largest building In the world. In 19'2't the honor was transferred to Chicago. The so-called Furniture Mart, th** substantial-looking structure which rise* on the shore of Lake Michigan latfth of the month of the <'h|e»go river, has the distinction of being the largest building In th* world. This building is sixteen stories tall and covers an entire block of ground. 21" feet one way anil I<t" feet the other way. Tie cmubim-d area of its Id floors makes the astounding total of 1.2."-<M"«» feet, or upward of 28 acres, while the cubical capacity of this monstrous project mounts to the unlieiievalde total of 2tt,i»«*.i«»i ruble feet. Think of It! Then get this! Three trainlauds or «; stw* piling were u«<s| for foundation ' piir|>oses. Three million feet of turn-l»-r were used lu connection with the concn-te work.
