Wild, isn't it?
I think I remember the building of the apartment bldg. in 2010 in 5 days.
Would you stay in this hotel? I'd be very leery - call me crazy!

I don't feel comfy in very high-rise hotels. Re quality of building - you get bad builders everywhere.

I woudl be worried about stying there too. It still has to be bolted all together and I would wander if in the rush to finish a nbolt or two were missed. Like they say a chain is only as strong as it's weakest link. I think that would apply here. One weak bolt and you never know. A lot of buildings like houses can partly be built off site. Like all the walls and rook. Then they just bring it in and set the pieces together. I doubt that happened here. But I wish them lluck and hope they never have a problem...but what was the rush? Just to set a record? Not a good idea if you ask me. Here we had a Base Pro Shop built very quickly. But it's a huge long building so a lot of people could work in different areas. It was built over the summer. From the time we heard about it till it was finished was less than 9 months I think.
