Thus, we have a solution for ‘overbuilding’.
Blow ‘em up, real good!

Must have needed the real estate for four or five more coal fired electrical plants

Let poor people live in them? There were no walls, no utilities, no furnishings. Each floor was empty, no rooms, no walls, no windows, no doors, nothing. Poor people are already living in other decrepit buildings with minimum living standards.

And maybe the Builder/Contractor too.

I don’t want to be the guy to go take care of the one that didn’t fall down!

Cheaper taking them down then trying to restore them. Heck we do that here as well. Just recently two chain restaurants built new buildings right next to their former buildings... now empty. Less expensive to build from ground up than restore what they have.

indeed ... probably no elevators either ... just empty concrete shells

We did the same, after thinking that sticking all of our drug dealers and Welfare Queens in high-rises would solve the problem of ‘poverty’.

One of my guilty pleasures (okay, it’s boring) is to watch building implosion vids on YouTube. :^)

Why not let poor people live in them? For all we know, there were.

That’s a hoot! She missed the big show. And those Chinese buildings were probably not suitable for human habitation . . . well, maybe for the Chinese, but not for any First World folks. There are countless Youtube videos highlighting shoddy Chinese construction. Many of them are downright horrifying.

These weren't implosions, someone in one of the buildings just closed their refrigerator too hard. ;^)
This channel is mainly about a Chinese ordinary people. Visit the real situation of Chinese people's life. Now most Chinese people are living in deep water. Today's life is very difficult, coupled with the recent epidemic. The economy has been on the decline, and now it has become even worse. The video is shot by mobile phones, with average picture quality I'm sorry. Most of the videos have subtitles or English subtitles. I don't have a gold owner. I haven't received advertisements. I'm not afraid to hurt others. So, what I said in the videos is true.
