"""A colorful tale. A rare introduction to one of New York City's more influential but lesser-known builders, and his ""Grand"" work."" -- Kirkus Reviews"


"""A charming tale, and to think it's all true! Whether readers are train and construction buffs or not, this is a living, breathing biography of a building, and the man who believed in it from the ground up. Extraordinary."" -- School Library Journal (starred review) ""A colorful tale. A rare introduction to one of New York City's more influential but lesser-known builders, and his ""Grand"" work."" -- Kirkus Reviews ""Hoyt's lively text is chockful of information, presented in a child-friendly way. Szalay's textured, detail-fueled digital illustrations ably convey time and place."" -- Horn Book Magazine ""[An] informational STEM picture book with an emphasis on problem-solving."" -- Booklist"
