How much would it cost to build the Great Pyramid today?

Does 5 billion sound right?

the structure was erected in just 20 years' time, meaning that a block had to have been moved into place about every 5 minutes of each day and night

Necesito un bloque puesto cada 5 minutos, ahora a trabajar!
:coffee:

Not even close, to make a replica you'd have to use the same techniques.
Think about the labor costs.

Add another 5-10 years for the EIR and related lawsuits.
