Naah… Building megastructures in space is a piece of cake. Literally. We would be in microgravity, correct? Hence, while building the structure, we would just have to ensure that every unit area of the surface of this cylinder can resist a centrifugal force of 1G. This is akin to building a very large single story building.
The hurdle here is getting the raw material for building this. We would need lunar mines for this to be possible at least in the Terran/Lunar orbit. Now, establishing mines on the moon would be complicated initially. However, once we do that, the universe is ours, literally.
