  • The vast majority, like 90+%, of all buildings in china are less than 25 years old. Which is a crazy stat no other country can compare to, even with population growth being what it is.

    They had to rapidly grow and industrialize, so yeah they weren’t looking to get stuck with ancient tech and materials for a thousand years. As long as they can continue to develop technology and new techniques for buildings its way better to have a shorter lifespan for buildings. That way no one is stuck in lead painted asbestos lined homes like many in the us are still stuck with.
