How many days did prince albert get to build the crystal palace and knock it down?

Prince Albert, along with architect Joseph Paxton, oversaw the construction of the Crystal Palace in just about nine months, from its groundbreaking in September 1850 to its completion in April 1851 for the Great Exhibition. However, the structure was not knocked down until it was dismantled in 1936, long after Albert's death in 1861. Thus, while the building phase was brief, the Crystal Palace stood for many decades before its demolition.
