Just think, they make all of the toys for our children and they will be importing vehicles to the US in a couple of years. There is so much wrong that can be seen in these pictures that it is just crazy they got as far as they did with the development.

I glossed over the thread title earlier and just say "Topless Building"

Hmm... big pile of dirt on one side of a building built with skinny hollow pilings. That's a good plan overall.

They will probably push the dirt from the garage excavation over the top of it and erect a new building using the toppled one as a foundation next.
