How about an apartment for your family for $6280?
Only in China. The world's tallest building, to be built in 210 days at a cost of $628 million.
I'm having a hard time getting my head around a building that has 100,000 people living in it. Especially a pre-fab skyscraper. World's Tallest Skyscraper to Be Built in 210 Days Instead of 90 as Originally Planned | Inhabitat - Sustainable Design Innovation, Eco Architecture, Green Building

Where's that photo of the not-even-inhabited-yet high rise that toppled over in China?

It'll probably fall over to. I will never be anywhere near that building. China isn't on my travel wish list.

The good news is that it fell over in one piece. Now all they need to do is get a crane to stand it back up.

 So are the units in those surrounding buildings now going for half (or less) of what they originally went for? Look at those goobers shooting pix with their cellphones.
