It's in China. People will probably be moved in at gunpoint.

Yeah, no pilings/casons.

Probably used multiple contrators. The Building contactor knew what he was doing. The foundation contractor sucks big time. (Well, probably don't suck now. Probably has a bullet in his neck by now.)
As a side, I live on the Gulf Coast of Texas. Marshy land, but we still build hi-rise's. To do that here, they have to drive piling sometime 150 to 200 feet deep to hit something solid. Those piling may be in a grid every 4 foot square, too.
