A mushROOM!
Armillaria ostoyae fungus, also known as the honey fungus, is the world largest organism and covers over 2300 acres!

Another specimen in northeastern Oregon’s Malheur National Forest is possibly the largest living organism on Earth by mass, area, and volume – this contiguous specimen covers 3.7 square miles (2,400 acres; 9.6 km2) and is colloquially called the “Humongous fungus”.
Uses
The species is considered a choice edible.
Hmmm. Apparently in national forests in Oregon you can harvest up to a gallon of mushrooms for personal use at one time, no permit required, though you’re not allowed to sell or barter it.
…that’s kind of amazing that anyone can just go out and eat part of the largest organism on earth.
thanks dad
There’s no room in that room.
What are you talking about? There’s so mush room!

Wonko the sane nods in agreement
Does a factory count? If so… https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_Everett_Factory
The NASA Vehicle Assembly Building is also a contender.
I’m not sure how many dividing walls there are inside Everett, but the VAB is basically one massive empty skyscraper.
You could say the Veryovkina Cave in Georgia is the biggest room in the world, if you define a room as a single continuous enclosure not impeded by any barriers or gates. It’s referred to as the Mount Everest of caves and has six points of entry once thought to be unrelated. My best friends are cave hobbyists (my body isn’t ready as they say, though to be fair neither are theirs for different reasons), seeing/capturing never before things all the time, and are probably evading the law that far below our overworld right now.
Makes me wish I could be into that stuff, might be interesting to see the life and art down there.
I’m not sure of the volume of that system, how to get it. But I wonder if man made strip mines like these would compare:
They go on for miles, are huge, and theoretically could go on for basically forever.
What’s the single biggest constructed room? By humans, inside a building.
Yer mum’s rectum!
Nah I don’t know
