Plenty of things build today will last much longer:

Every nuclear waste disposal site (hopefully)

Seed vaults

Nuclear bunkers

Don't forget about every single use plastic packaging out there!

Plastic packaging will quickly tear into microplastics, which indeed will last centuries

Concrete doesn't last, stone does. Brick to a lesser extent.

*Concrete with rebar. Roman concrete has lasted plenty long. Though the lime in it helps.

That is true. Roman Concrete is still standing 2k years on. Ours lasts decades, maybe a century if well done.

They used ash from Mount Aetna in Sicily to make some of it. I forget the thing with the lime, how that was different than what we use?
