Oh, so it wasn't really built in 3 weeks.

I'm not interested in occupying a building whose claim to fame was how fast it was built.

Sure, why not?
Btw, how do they get those big arse cranes off the type on the structure is completed?

You mean assembled. Not built
Posted on 6/26/15 at 10:45 am to TDsngumbo
notta

They are pretty liberal with the word built right. They put up the structure in three weeks, but no way they did the plumbing, electrical, etc.
Pretty cool, but I think built should mean finished.

The story is misleading, it does not consider all the planning, the 4 months building the modules, the facilities that had to be built prior to the modules being fabricated (that type of facility its self probably took a year to construct) the site prep work that took place, etc.
In reality it was probably over 5 years to construct.

No.

so it's more like a prefab sky scraper

It looks unstable to the naked eye.
Condo complex I'm moving into has 45 stories and took a year and a half to build. You couldn't pay me to get in this pictured building.
