The Flaktürme were so well built that the Germans and Austrians haven't figured out a way of demolishing them without wrecking the surrounding neighborhoods. The Flaktürm pictured is in Vienna.
The Obama monolith is already breaking up due to DEI engineering and construction. Defects identified thus far include a mat concrete pour with improper curing due to heat buildup; the garage entry ramps poured to the wrong thickness; incorrect rebar layering in the walls; exposed rebar in the outer (architectural) concrete shell sections; and extensively cracked concrete slabs throughout.
