Actually the answer is a bit odd, and hard to find a lot of documentation about. I think a lot of engineers would agree that Congreve's Hole, an excavation made in the mid 19th century in order to reflow the Croton Reservoir to New York City was an astonishing feat. Congereve had dug the deepest, straightest hole in history, and dropped a platform down it. The platform was fitted so tightly to the shaft that the suction action started up the siphon effect and the Reservoir has fed the New York water supply ever since.
An odd note. Congreve's hole is not to be found on any maps of New York works that I have found in recent years. It's exact location remains a mystery to modern researchers. It is somewhere in the Riverdale area. Shows you how fast history can be lost.

That would be the Eiffel Tower. Are you planning to dance up it?
