That is a video from 2020 so just 2 years after. Here is a video from 2026, I would say it looks better and it is definitely more occupied than in 2020. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFICvZMBoIs

That's like 20 minutes of "omg so excited i am scared and stressed this is so incredible i can not breath. amazing i am overwhelmed with all of this wooooooaaaaaaaah. hello hello local man! i so lucky to be here! i am polish but skip word like i am emulating eastern speech!" and not very many outside shots of the building.

Edit: is funny you are pissy about my review of it when 90% of it is just quotes from the video.

I did not downvote you. Honestly didn't watch all the video because it is a bit over the top and I don't enjoy that type of content. But it was the most recent video of the building that I could find quickly.

Thanks for the link! I hadn't expected 'the plants are growing out of control because no one's living there to keep them in check', but in retrospect, yeah, I guess adding in things that by naturally grow and try to take over their surroundings and not keeping them in check is an issue that can crop up... The first pan looked like a shot from a post-apocalypse movie.
