SKYSCRAPER
The volume is the same as if it didn't spiral (90,000,000 cubic feet) since every horizontal cross section is a 300'x300' square.

The length of the spiral edge (1666.29 feet) is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 1000 and 300*sqrt(2)*pi (circumference of circle circumscribing square base).


Yes, correct on both Cool

I rather think; Pandanus, Chest/Beechnuts or Illipe Nuts; Sapotaceae is the genus.

that's 5 characters (digits) in a postal code (zip code) unless you add the other 4 zone digits plus the dash then it would be 10
