At least the cranes didnt fall.I'm not so sure. It looks like the gantry crane leaned into the side of the building,
They might have been in the process of raising it. Doing so is quite the balancing act.

One of the many jobs I had in my misspent youth was laborer at construction sites. Some of the sites were union, some werent. The union workers were often rude and arrogant. But let me tell you something. To a man they were all competent and skilled craftsmen. They knew what they were doing.
On nonunion sites, you had carpenters who two days earlier were working at a dollar store.
Good to know.
