I have been a person who thinks that if anyone could pull off such a thing as this.
He would have to be extraordinary indeed.
I hear of a man who used his voice to get people to give him money to further his greed.He pretended to be a religious man who had a dream of a church in Arizona.
He got his place and made a mint.Some people who were a part of this realized this and got out.
So I’m a believer,ever since I heard of it in the late 70’s early 80’s.
And if you don’t believe you sooner or later you will !!
If I had the money I wish I could go and visit there !

I’ve been there. To those that haven’t shut up and listen. EVERYTHING there is made from coral slabs of two types of limestone, nothing poured or pulverized. Got that, Alan?
Look at an aerial view of the place and by the south wall you can see where he quarried the slabs for his walls and ramparts. There is scarring on each wall slab from where he pounded hot leaf-springs into the limestone. When the springs cooled tension returned with enough force to snap the chiseled slab.
Yoda, you need to physically check the place out before making any comments on something you know absolutely nothing about. And if you keep both eyes & mind open you might learn something and would no longer post ignorant remarks.

[...] “In the city of Homestead, Florida sits a strange stone structure created by eccentric Edward Leedskalnin. No one really knows why it was built or how, but considering each of the megalithic coral stones weigh more than most men could move alone, the emergence of the Coral Castle remains an impressive mystery.” That opening paragraph might sound like the little speech Nigel Tufnel gave right before Spinal Tap performed “Stonehenge” in front of their 18″ scale model, but it’s actually the beginning of some news story I couldn’t really be bothered to read. The castle is kind of pretty though…in a totally-masculine, assuredly-heterosexual way. [story] [...]

Thanks, Dave- I appreciate the nice comment! This was a really cool subject, I was in some sort of a trance while researching it, couldn’t get enough. I am still finding new things about it, as I research for my own comments to everyone here! I guess, I’m gonna have to give it up and visit the place. When I do, I will write about that and see where that one gets us! lol I also write for examiner.com, a little different from the angle here, so if you like, check me out, just type in my name on the search bar. Thanks, for reading! Always happy to have “fresh meat”! lol
