There's a fig tree in Balboa Park in San Diego that dwarfs the one in the diagram, and that's only the third biggest in California. But I imagine it's hard to convince people to sell trees that big / transport them into buildings much larger than the one in the diagram.

Moreton Bay Figs are amazing. They’re everywhere in Brisbane, AU and there is even a children’s playground that weaves through a huge one.
