Tower of Blah Blah

I'm sure you recognize this tower. It's been photographed to death so I'll tell you a little known fact about the twin towers to liven things up.

 

The towers were built by two separate construction companies. One tower was built by a Japanese construction company and the other one was built by a Korean construction company.

 

Naturally, the Japanese having superior technology and project management skills were first to reach the top followed months later by the Koreans.

 

Japan and Korea don't often see eye to eye and when the two towers were completed, the hole for the bridge in the middle did not see eye to eye either and the bridge could not be hoisted up to connect both towers. It took many more months for them to fix this problem.

 

Every time I look at that bridge, I think of this story which I heard from someone involved in the project. Did you know this?
