At last, after all, the non-stop hard work and planning the Mount Rushmore National Memorial construction was officially completed on October 31, 1941. It was a long ride with all kinds of ups and downs but in the end, Gutzon Borglum’s dream was a reality. The whole project cost around $989,992.32 and the cost would have been more if they have kept going on to complete some of the original designs.
