Edward
Leedskalnin was 26 years old and was engaged to to be married to his
true love, Agnes Scuffs. One day before the ceremony, Agnes cancelled
the wedding. Heartbroken, Ed set out to create a monument to his lost
love that has culminated into one of the world's
most remarkable accomplishments.
Without any machinery or assistance, Ed carved, sculpted, and moved
over 1,100 tons of coral. After the carvings were in place, the coral
walls weigh 125 pounds per cubic foot. Each section of wall is 8 feet
tall, 4 feet wide, 3 feet thick, and weighs over 58 tons.
