There are currently no man-made objects visible from the moon, not even the Great Wall of China (see link below)
Here is a quote from Astronaut Alan Bean (Apollo 12)...
"The only thing you can see from the moon is a beautiful sphere, mostly white (clouds), some blue (ocean), patches of yellow (deserts), and every once in a while some green vegetation. No man-made object is visible on this scale. In fact, when first leaving earth's orbit and only a few thousand miles away, no man-made object is visible at that point either."
The largest and only man made object to be visible to Neil Armstrong and for the matter any human would be THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA.For nothing else is visible to the naked eye.
