It has (fully grasp this) 1000 rooms (not 10 or 100, but 1000 rooms... mania), including five auditoriums, a reception hall, five rehearsal studios, four restaurants (nice!), six theatre bars, an extensive foyer and lounge areas, sixty dressing rooms and suites, a library, an artists' lounge (more lounges) plus a canteen referred to as the "Green Room" (we used to do Green Room within school within the evening of a production), administrative offices and extensive plant and machinery areas. (More or less everything equals 1000 rooms... again insanity). The property is built at the Sydney Harbour and it is sustained by 580 concrete piers which are 82 feet below sea level (that is definitely soooo cool!). In the Concert Hall, there may be (I'm sure) the biggest organ inside Universe. It had been designed and built by Ronald Sharp (who's Australian, certainly. Sydney is in Australia) between 1969 and 1979. This musical beast has 10,500 pipes (holy cowwww!!!), five manual keyboards, one pedal keyboard, and 127 stops arranged in 205 ranks (don't really know what which means, but them some big numbers). Okay, given that we've broken the ice, let's examine the Sydney Opera House!
A long time ago inside a country far, far-off... there was clearly a harbor referred to as Sydney Harbor. And in this magical place would have been a fort, referred to as Fort Macquarie Tram Depot. And it wasn't until someone named Jorn Utzon (don't ask me the way to pronounce this) won a competition that the NSW (New South Wales) Government had made (it was some international design competition to create a property with two performance halls) that the Fort Macquarie Tram Depot was demolished. The Depot was demolished in 1958. (We'll move on to the Utzon fellow in a sec, for now, an instant of silence for the demolished Depot................. okay, I presume that's enough.)
Jorn Utzon may be the original designer of the Sydney Opera House. He won the competition in 1956 along with the NSW Government made him the sole architect for any house. Utzon was given birth on April 9, 1918 in Copenhagen (April babies are awesome. Yes, I am an April baby. Whoo!!). He received his Diploma in Architecture via the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in 1942 along his own office (of architecture awesomeness) in 1946. (Okay, let's go back Sydney.)
The Sydney Opera House's building didn't start until March 1959. There were many problems that Utzon along with the NSW Government faced when they designed the residence. By January 23, 1961, construction was 42 weeks behind schedule (yikes!). There have been weather complications and design/construction problems. Utzon was designing the residence as it was being built (certainly not a valuable thing) and due to this, the style brief kept changing. The podium columns were too weak and couldn't keep the difficult roof structure, so those needed to be rebuilt (which cost the builders time and effort). Sadly, Utzon resigned in 1966 simply because of cost overruns and the alternation in government. The brand new Robert Askin Government placed the making of the residence inside of the jurisdiction within the Secretary of state for Public Works. This caused many situations and lead to street demonstrations (useless). FYI: Through the entire design on the Sydney Opera House, architects kept switching. After Utzon's resignation, Peter Hall, Lionel Todd, David Littlemore, and the new NSW Government Architect (I'm assuming this is ahead of the government changed. I'm not really really sure) Ted Farmer took charge of the building of the house. They performed the glass walls and three venues which are added because the NSW Government wanted a greater concert hall (it seems that concerts were more preferred than opera... not cool). Between 1986 and 1988, Peter Hall and the new (newer) NSW Government Architect, Andrew Anderson (catchy name), worked on the land approach and the Forecourt of the house. (Okay, so we talked many of the architect dilemma. Let's converse a little bit more around the establishing construction.)

By January 23, 1961, construction was 42 weeks behind schedule (yikes!). There were weather difficulties and design/construction problems. Utzon was designing the place since it had been built (under no circumstances a positive thing) and because of this, the design brief kept changing. The podium columns were too weak and couldn't include the elaborate roof structure, so those would have to be rebuilt (which cost the builders a lot of time). Sadly, Utzon resigned in 1966 because of cost overruns and also the change in government. The new Robert Askin Government placed the building of the place below the jurisdiction belonging to the Ministry of Public Works. This caused several troubles and bring about street demonstrations (unhealthy). FYI: Through the entire assembly on the Sydney Opera House, architects kept adjusting. After Utzon's resignation, Peter Hall, Lionel Todd, David Littlemore, plus the new NSW Government Architect (I'm assuming this is in front of the government changed. I'm not really, really sure) Ted Farmer took command over the making of the house. They performed the glass walls and three venues that were added since the NSW Government wanted a better concert hall (it seems that concerts were more popular than opera... not cool). Between 1986 and 1988, Peter Hall and the new (newer) NSW Government Architect, Andrew Anderson (catchy name), worked on the land approach and the Forecourt of the property. (Okay, therefore we talked a lot of the architect dilemma. Let's discuss even more regarding the setting up construction.)
Finally, the Sydney Opera House was finally finished in 1973 and opened by Queen Elizabeth II on October 20 of the exact same year. It took roughly 14 years for this house to be produced.
