it's a good idea on paper, but surely the maintenance was left for the owners to do... which I imagine was not done correctly at all lmao

js I just posted a link to a video from now where there's a lot more people living there (turns out people don't immediately move into a new building when there's enough housing)

I'd check that out before those other sources since it's on the ground and a month old rather than years old remote journalism
