I found it very interesting that Turner has been in some big projects such as the Times Square Tower, World Trade Center Tower 2, and Yankee Stadium. Another thing that stood out to me was the positive mindset that Turner carries with them and how Doug said that, “problems are not something that’s dreaded within the organization; they are opportunities for us to improve.” Very helpful.
