The Pentagon--a building, institution, and symbol--was conceived
at the request of Brigadier General Brehon B. Sommervell, Chief of
the Construction Division of the Office of the Quartermaster
General, on a weekend in mid-July 1941. The groundbreaking ceremony
took place on September 11, 1941. The first occupants moved in 29
April 1942. Height of building (ft.) 77' 3.5"

The Pentagon was one of the safest buildings in the world for 60
years until it was attacked on September 11th, 2001 at exactly the
same part, which was just renovated. (See Controlled Cleanup) There was no
explanation as why the building wasn't evacuated, when the Twin
Towers got hit and 2 planes still got hijacked. (See Clarke,Veronica) Compare: All
