Very cost effective to build modules in a factory.
Yeah, that's pretty cool.
OK, it took a day to assemble - how long did it take to build all the modules and stage them for delivery...
Not to mention the time needed to hook up all the utilities - electric, water, waste...Quote:

It is a general practice to have water storage on the roofs of high-rise buildings.Quote:

Chinese engineers are nothing if not efficient in designing systems to fit together perfectly on very large scales, I'd almost wager the only thing left to do by the end of the day would be to flip on the circuit breakers and fill the water storage. People could be moving in by nightfall
