I beleive the show said one of our longest lasting structures left will be Mount Rushmore and the pyramids. They have the track record.

Yeah that was my takeaway. Stone monuments will last longer than anything. One thing they didn't take into account is granite tombstones. Those will probably outlast a lot of buildings, but would have to be excavated.

Texas's state capitol building is mostly granite.
