In 1930, the 11,000-ton Indiana Bell Telephone Company Building in Indianapolis was rotated 90 degrees and moved 52 feet south without disrupting daily operations or the 600 employees inside. This historic engineering feat was achieved by maintaining all utility connections with flexible piping and moving the structure at a painstaking pace of 15 inches per hour. | History In Pictures

In 1930, Kurt Vonnegut Sr. masterminded a project to rotate the 22-million-pound Indiana Bell building 90 degrees over a month. Amazingly, this was achieved without disrupting the work of the 600 employees inside or the building's essential services. 📸 Reddit | Interesting Engineering

In 1930, the Indiana Bell Telephone Company building in Indianapolis achieved what seemed impossible: a 7-story, 11,000-ton building was rotated 90 degrees while 600 employees continued their daily work uninterrupted. Incredibly most of the power needed to move the building was provided by hand-operated jacks while a steam engine also provided some support. Each time the jacks were pumped, the house moved 3/8th of an inch. Nearly 100 years later, it's highly unlikely we'd even attempt this today

In 1930, the Indiana Bell building underwent a remarkable transformation as it was rotated 90 degrees. Over the course of a month, this 22-million-pound structure gracefully shifted at a rate of 15 inches per hour. Surprisingly, the 600 employees inside continued their work uninterrupted, with gas, heat, electricity, water, sewage, and telephone services flowing seamlessly throughout the process. This architectural feat was flawlessly executed thanks to the ingenious plan devised by Architect Ku
